Rap Song of Residents' Names

 

1. I went around an copied the names of all 93 residents off door plates.

2. I made a list of first names

3. I sorted first names by number of syllables

4. I sorted each list by which syllable was accented

5. I sorted each accented list by sound of final consonant

6. I put the sorted names into a song

7. I checked the song to see that everyone was included…once.

8. I selected music for the song

9. I played music, and sang the song

10. I recorded the song

11. I played the recording for residents

12. Nobody cared.

Rap song of residents' names...a work in progress.
