Feudalism: The Middle Ages Rap
I used the song C.R.E.A.M (Cash rules everything around me) by Wu Tang and made it Castles Rise Everywhere Around Me. This song is all about the different social groups that took part in feudalism and the Manorial System. Here is a preview down below.
Serfs grew food on land that was arable
Being a peasant probably was terrible
Nobles and peasants are not comparable
Clothes were scarce so undies aren’t wearable
These ages were dark and the plague was black
But nothing was as scary as a Viking

2nd Grade Cultural Music Lesson - SCOTLAND
Travel to Scotland through song with your students in this lesson which focuses on cultural expression through traditional Scottish songs. Scots Dialect is one of the three languages spoken in Scotland. However, it is very similar to English making it accessible for teaching songs.
