It’s back to school time. Before you head out with the big list of needed supplies, take a few moments to take our school quiz – Song, Book or Movie. We searched the internet for songs, books, movies and TV series about going to school – preschool, elementary, middle high school or college. For each title, tell us who performed the song; wrote the book or starred in the movie. Some titles may be a song and/or a book and/or a movie. We provide you with list of songs, artists, books, movies, TV series and actors - you just have to put them together.
For example:
“To Sir with Love” is a song by Lulu and a movie starring Sidney Poitier based on the book of the same name by E.R. Braithwaite.
Match the correct recording artist to the song they performed that is related to school in some way:
