<\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Inferno<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> and was profoundly impacted by the parallels.\u00a0 What he came up with was the most beautiful, creative, and poignant album that, almost song-for-song, tracks a modern day listener through the circles of Hell.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">For example, his track \u201cFrancesca,\u201d obviously goes with the second circle of Hell, where a sympathetic Dante speaks with a woman named Francesca.\u00a0 \u201cButchered Tongue\u201d is an interpretive take on violence in the Wexford Rebellion in Ireland.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The more I dug, the more amazed I was at what Hozier did on his album. I couldn\u2019t find a more perfect pair than Dante\u2019s <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Inferno<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> and Hozier\u2019s

style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Inferno<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> and Hozier project, I accommodate in two majors ways.\u00a0 First, I assigned them one of the two circles we covered in depth in our class: Circle Two and Circle Nine.\u00a0 It just made sense given we read the entirety of those texts (with my language accommodations).\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you don\u2019t teach those two circles specifically, \u201cFrancesca\u201d and \u201cUnknown\/Nth\u201d are two of the more approachable circles and songs.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The other major accommodation I provide is a translation of the text, song lyrics, and worksheets.\u00a0 Providing material in their native language can help them break down some of the initial barriers so they can really dive in deeply and make the most of this assignment.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">I did not require my ELLs to present in front of the entire class.\u00a0 Instead, I had them present to me during our study hall period in front of a smaller group of fellow ELL students.<\/span><\/p><p><a
