I said I would elaborate more on my favorite websites for teaching, well Flocabulary.com has been my favorite for years. It has only gotten better. I teach ELAR and Social Studies and it has me covered with all my subjects. And it is so funny when I pull my kids for small groups and they start rapping the songs to me saying we learned something. 🙂 They are continually adding new skills in reading and covers all the way up to high school so if you need a hook, brain break, or use it to teach a lesson you are covered. I have used it in my lessons and the vocabulary as my word study during my literacy block. I use the grammar videos to help enhance the lessons I have already taught and use the activities as guided or independent practice. Try a free trial for 45 days!

I love Flocabulary! As a fellow MC Educator, I love to play the videos and have my students try and fill in the blanks. I play the slowed down version first and then speed it up when they need to get the final few! They are engaged the whole time and I always find them rapping the songs when they think I can’t hear.
