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. Enjoy!
Also, I changed "I.G.G.Y." to M.U.L.E because our school mascot is the mule. You could change that part to any four letter word or team you'd like.

Chromosome Song (Telephone by Lady Gaga Parody)
This song, a parody of Telephone by Lady Gaga, can be used to introduce new vocabulary and processes, or at the middle/end of a unit to put everything together.
When using, I had students sing it first (or read along while I sang terribly), so we could work on word pronunciation. Then we would underline key words and processes.
On the second page, we would go through and illustrate (in guided form if some of the words were new, or independent/with a partner if most of the content had been cove

"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.
My students had the incredible opportunity to experience the inauguration in Washington D.C. this January during a 5-day trip where they stayed in the dorms at Howard University. This song by Caroline Herring describes one experience attending the 2009 inauguration, so we were able to compare her experience then to the students’
