Education: Increasing your vocabulary and knowledge with Flocabulary

The promotion of Flocabulary or “Hip-Hop in the Classroom” was seemingly a small trend or perhaps an attempt at inclusion, but it is becoming more integrated and accepted as a complimentary, if not primary educational teaching tool.

Stimulating minds is a key to learning and Flocabulary seems a perfect tool to reinforce areas of knowledge that students are required to memorize or learn by rote.

Could you write a Hip-Hop edu-rap?

My first attempt follows on the 7 Seas and while neither have all of us sailed the seven seas, nor been alive in that time of history, it comes with a sense of fluidity.

MBA-RAP-G=C

Meditate on a Mediterranean beach with psalms, Yo

Black oil spills on your Adriatic arms, Yo

Red sheen chillin in the Arabian nights, Ma

Persian Gulf tankers from the Caspian avoid the laser targeting lights, ta.

The manilatop10 MBA RAP comes with a guarantee, a Grade of C.

It might work with todays generation, but I find it more than offensive to the ears.
Words are far to beautiful for me to ever want to hip hop my way through them!

That's sort of one of the points i.e. to introduce more words to a genre that is here to stay :)
