Text Structures Rap (Iggy Azalea Parody)
Many of my students were struggling with learning and recognizing the differences between the six nonfiction text structures. So, I rewrote Iggy Azalea's "Fancy" to include information about cause and effect, question and answer, description, problem and solution, compare and contrast, and chronological order/sequence.

"Maiden Voyage" Music as Informational Text
This document includes the handout and the key.
I created this assignment to pair with an analysis of rhetorical strategies used in Obama’s 2013 Inauguration Speech.
