Songs of the Enlightenment! Which Enlightenment Philosopher would sing it?
Students listen to songs be modern artists from Youtube, and try to figure out which philosopher's message goes along with the song!
Very fun, good way to incorporate music into the classroom and to change things up!
Each philosopher can only be used once, but students can build their case with enough evidence to support their choice. Some artists are easy, others are more on the line.

Greek Gods rap
I wrote this song to be performed with the "instrumental" version of Ice Cube's "today was a good day" on youtube. However, you could perform it to anything. The rhyme scheme is not to complex so anybody can do it. It focuses on the 12 main gods of Mount Olympus.

American Revolution Parody, Henry VIII Parody, and Parody Song Project
This is the perfect activity for the hands-on history class ready to flex their creative muscles. Students will see (and hopefully hear) a parody of Lady Gaga's "Paparazzi" and Bruno Mar's "When I Was Your Man". The first parody is about Henry VIII describing all of his problems with his six wives. The second parody is about a remorseful King George III singing about the loss of the 13 Colonies. This project works best for the teacher willing to sing the parodies, not just read them. Student

Rap- World War I: The 4 Causes:::::M.A.I.N
This song is based off the hit 90's song Regulators by Warren G and Nate Dogg. I kind did a Weird Al parody with it where the lyrics match up with the original song. It works best if you have another person performing it for you, and if you are familiar with the original song so hit the switches.
The song focuses on militarism, alliances, imperialism, and nationalism.
If you get this done right, you will be a hit!

The Roman Gods Rap
These lyrics are all about the gods of Ancient Rome. The lyrics can be performed to many different beats. Just make sure to really emphasize the "Peace" part in the last line. Maybe with a peace gesture/wave. The kids might crack up at the last part, so if you do not like laughter in your class, DO NOT USE THIS SONG. Maybe you can even give it to your kids to perform. Have fun.

Find European History resources | TPT
Take your students on a journey through European history with TPT! If you’re an educator or parent looking for printable or digital resources to help your student learn about European history, we’ve got you covered. Whether you’re teaching about the Renaissance, the Age of Exploration, or the World Wars, there are plenty of high-quality TPT resources at your fingertips to teach European history to your students.
European history activities to try
Here are a few examples of the different types of activities and lessons you can find on TPT to help teach students about European history:
Centers & Stations
Through the use of centers, students can collaborate and discuss topics and content they examine for various eras in European history. For example, you could have students navigate through a handful of centers or stations to help them learn about different elements of the Renaissance period, including influential cities, leaders, and artists. Or, to help them learn about the key figures and milestones of the French Revolution.
Map Making
With map-making activities you can not only teach students about European history, but also incorporate geography into your lessons. As they label and color maps, students can learn about important places in Europe and how European countries have expanded (and fallen) over time. For example, you could have students make maps of Europe before and after World War I to identify how the conflict impacted Europe.
Primary Source Analysis
One of the best ways to learn about European history is through historical documents, letters, diaries, art, and literature. Encourage students to use these firsthand accounts to gain a deeper understanding about European people and events. For instance, you can have students read excerpts from the works of Enlightenment philosophers — like Mary Wollstonecraft — and how they contributed to the political thinking of the time.
Research Projects
Have students research and present on a specific topic of European history, like the Age of Exploration. For example, ask students to choose a famous European Explorer to research, and have them write a short biography of that person or create a short video or presentation about their achievements and legacy.
