Happy New Year | We Didn't Start the Fire

1. DO NOW | Tell me 3 things you accomplished/are proud of in 2014.

2. LYRICS | Make a copy.  The lyrics of this song refer to headline events between 1949 to 1989. As we listen to the song, highlight the events or people you recognize on your document.

3. VIDEO | We Didn't Start the Fire


4. DISCUSSION | What events or people you recognize?

5. REFLECT | Think about your life over the last 10 years? What’s been going on in that’s noteworthy?

6. HOMEWORK |  Imagine It's 2025. What events, people, and places have transpired in your life? When you see the person next to you for the first time in a decade, what will you tell them when they ask, "So uh, what've you been up to since High School?"

Write at least two verses of your own version of Billy Joel’s ” We Didn’t Start the Fire ”... perhaps one about Catching Fire? Speading change? What will be sung about your accomplishments.

It must follow the rhythm and rhyme scheme of the original song. So feel free to play it over and over! :)
