Adding some music to History

A majority of my students have heard of Horrible Histories before they enter my classroom, however, not many have heard of historyteachers.  While the HH songs are catchy in their own way, Amy Burvall and Herb Mahelona set their parodies to songs that the students and teachers are familiar with from popular culture.

Check out the reason my students draw musical notes next to some of their Medieval Europe exam answers, and not a one has ever misspelled bubonic!

I'm looking forward to introducing my Year 7 class to historyteachers well-researched, produced and catchy work.

Head on over to arttrav by Alexandra Korey to read how Amy used the songs in her own teaching.
