description

I made this Power Point Presentation for a class that deals with culture of English speaking countries. I chose 10 songs that were number 1 on January 1st on the Billboard Top 100 in the previous century (every ten years, starting from this year) and made a quiz on that topic. This activity is great for checking reading comprehension in a different way than usual.
