This is an interesting site … The Week in Rap takes the current events and creates a video, with a rap song whose lyrics explain the news of the day. They do a pretty decent job, too, and I bet kids would be engaged to listen and watch and then think about the importance. And, of course, perhaps then they could make their own Current Events Rap song.
Here is the video about the inauguration:

That’s AWESOME! My students would love to make a Rap Video. I’m going to show them this on Monday. Thanks, Dog!
Woof!
