Above are two catchy rap videos, part one and two, to help students learn the state capitals. When information is put into a song, people are more likely to remember the information, rather than repeating it over and over again. The video is a great tool to use in the classroom. The students can visually see the information and listen to it through the song. For each state, the rappers add useful historical information that students can also learn. They also tell the audience which part of the country they are in (ex. New England states, Mid-Atlantic states, etc.). Each state is named with the capital listed underneath when the rapper says it in the song.
