Find a song (appropriate for school) that displays a poetic device we have discussed.  It can be a Simile, Metaphor, Alliteration, Onomatopoeia, Personification, Hyperbole, etc.  Write the following:

lines/verse of the song
what type of poetic device is presented



**Remember to only use your FIRST NAME**

If you are stuck on finding a song, here are some you can look into.

Baby by Justin Bieber, Titanium by David Geutta, Katy Perry, Naturally by Selena Gomez, Black Eyed Peas, Super Bass by Nicko Minaj, Great Balls of Fire by Jerry Lewis, or even Video Killed the Radio Star by the Buggles.

There are many songs out there. Just remember to make sure it is appropriate for school!
