Text Structures Rap (Iggy Azalea Parody)
Many of my students were struggling with learning and recognizing the differences between the six nonfiction text structures. So, I rewrote Iggy Azalea's "Fancy" to include information about cause and effect, question and answer, description, problem and solution, compare and contrast, and chronological order/sequence. Enjoy!
Also, I changed "I.G.G.Y." to M.U.L.E because our school mascot is the mule. You could change that part to any four letter word or team you'd like.

Context Clues Song - a parody of One Direction's "Kiss You"
Lyrics:
Raise your hand if you have seen
A word you didn’t know and had to find the meaning
I bet you felt hopeless, woe, and anxious
I bet you felt frustrated
Well, Ms. McCarthy’s here to rescue you
She’s gonna show just what you’ve got to do.
You’ve gotta use the context clues
Context clues?
You’ve gotta use the context clues , yeah.
Reread the sentences
Around the word or phrase
Visualize what’s happening.
Plug in something from your brain.

I don’t know this word or phrase
