Resource consists of 3 separate powerpoints and a written assignment template. There is a suggested extenstion task, looking at a Minogue track from 2015 (no resources on this one). Warning: there are some potentially triggering references linked to different socio-economic groups. Exploration of lyrical content throughout touches on some sensitive topics.
