Flocabulary

I have recently been introduced to the website Flocabulary by my practicum teacher. I have seen her use it within the classroom successfully and the children love it! This website encourages student learning through engagement, learning and creativity. This website is made up of educational hip-hop raps that inform students across 7 content areas for grades K-12. There are activities and assessments that go along with the videos for teachers to use. There is even room for students to create their own raps which promotes a sense of creativity. Because this is in the form of a video with music to go along with it, it is multi-sensory and good for all types of learners. Children in the classroom always get excited before watching the videos and because the songs are so well written and catchy the children are really able to grasp the content being presented. The websites also have Venn diagrams, note taking charts, graphic organizers and so much more available for use. You can join the website and get a free trial before deciding if it is valuable, I highly recommend checking it out!
