Feudalism: The Middle Ages Rap
I used the song C.R.E.A.M (Cash rules everything around me) by Wu Tang and made it Castles Rise Everywhere Around Me. This song is all about the different social groups that took part in feudalism and the Manorial System. Here is a preview down below.
Serfs grew food on land that was arable
Being a peasant probably was terrible
Nobles and peasants are not comparable
Clothes were scarce so undies aren’t wearable
These ages were dark and the plague was black
But nothing was as scary as a Viking

Causes of American Revolution Rap
This rap will help integrate the causes of the American Revolutionary War into a musical rap or poem for all students. Research shows that when information is presented in a different format it helps the students remember it more. This rap helped my struggling students remember dates and specific names for the causes of the American Revolution by making it a rap song that was fun to learn and they recited it for extra credit!

King Henry VIII and Bloody Mary Rap: Going Back to Catholic
This song is based off the song by the Notorious BIG which is based off LL COOL J's going back to Cali. The first verse is based on Henry and the second verse is based off of Mary Tudor. Girls always volunteer to do the part of Bloody Mary. Very rarely do I have to rap the Bloody Mary part.
Verse One:
When the blade hits ya ax just splits ya
Head so hard, that ya crown can't fit ya
Either I'm witcha or against ya

Talkin to the reform in

You'll Be Back - Song Lyric Analysis
Ever wonder what King George III had to say about the Revolutionary War? While we were learning about the causes of the Revolutionary War, my students always asked what King George III thought about the colonists' actions. This activity is a great way to answer that question! While this is in no way a primary source, it is a fun way to help students view the revolution from the British perspective! For my classroom, I showed my students a silly music video for the song from a group called "Worki
