What educators are saying

I used this for my honor's class and they loved it. They formed small groups of 2-3 students and had so much writing their rap songs. Some groups even recorded it with music to present to the class. This will definitely be used again next year!
This was one of my students favorite activities of the year. We divided into groups and they chose Athens or Sparta. After working on their raps, they performed them for the class. They were all engaged and learned a lot about Athens and Sparta! I will definitely use again.

Description

Bring your Ancient Greece unit to life with this engaging Athens vs Sparta Rap Battle! In this printable and digital Athens vs Sparta activity, students will learn more about Athens and Sparta to write a rap, song, or poem that highlights the differences between the two city-states.

While a rap battle is not the most traditional school project or activity, in our teaching experience, it has proven to be one of the most memorable assignments of the year. In this project, students will work alone or in a small groups to write a rap, song, or poem about the differences between Athens and Sparta.

As part of a recent update based upon some feedback we received, we have added detailed reading passages about both Athens and Sparta and provided a sample rap/poem that compares Corinth and Thebes. This will give students a clear example of what they will be doing, along with more information to work with!
