shelley,

are you expected to teach a 45 minute lesson around 1 song? that seems fairly unrealistic but if that's what you have to do...

here's a little bare bones lesson plan for a song:
1. warm up: elicit some song vocab
2. gap fill/cloze activity while listening to the song
3. sing
4. game involving lyrics or "actions" of the song

you dont want to spend the entire 45 minutes singing the song over and over. trust me, that would be a nightmarish class... dont ask me how i know, i just do...

i didn't know that but it's good to be aware of...
