Civics video lessons for teaching students the election process
Gear up to teach about voting and the election process with your students with these government and civics video lessons for your classroom.
This is one of the best examples I have seen of using hip-hop to teach, inform, inspire, etc. These students, from Ron Clark Academy in Atlanta, wrote a song about the 2008 election over the instrumental for "Whatever You Like" by the rapper T.I. Not only does this teach kind of project teach the students about election issues, it also motivates them by providing a fun outlet for their school work. Makes me want to get out there and vote. If I were T.I., I'd be proud.
