Fun songs to help you along! (Presidents and geography)



Here are some links to YouTube clips that help to illuminate some of history's most difficult things to remember:

The Presidents by Jonathan Coulton. Funny pictures to associate with the various presidents.

Animanics: States and Capitols. He runs through them pretty quickly.

Hip-hop TeacherTube video. This was put together by a middle school in New York and has some crazy dance moves while it explains early America. Anyone want to create something similar?? (points if you know the original song used as an instrumental.)
