If we've learned one thing from Lin-Manuel Miranda,ajk sex videos it's that rapping makes American history fun.
Rockdale County, Georgia, teacher David Yanceyis taking this strategy to his eighth grade classroom with his rendition of "Mad and Losing," a Civil War treatment of Migos' "Bad and Boujee."
Changing the refrain of the original hit to "my troops are mad and losing", Yancey references Abraham Lincoln, the Emancipation Proclamation, General Grant and the Gettysburg Address all in his four-minute long rap. His students are clearly into it, dancing and singing along to the musical lesson.

"I chose 'Bad and Boujee' because I asked students in my mentoring group which songs are hot right now. My process would be [to] acclimate myself to the vibe of the song and take the source content and change it to what can bridge the gap between what they know and the standards. Hopefully by the end they can see history can be fun if you let it."
Yancey said that he uses songs and raps as closing activities to his standard lessons. This way, he keeps his class interested all the way through to the end of the lesson. He said, "I learned early in my career in order to stay relevant in the classroom you have to ensure the kids that you care about them."
The original post, tweeted by josie duffy rice, already has thousands of retweets and and many responses praising Yancey's method and the way his students engaged in the lesson:

When asked about his students' reaction to the lesson, Yancey said they were completely "floored."
"They know when we do a four square, which is one of my culminating activities at the end of a unit, that something is coming," he said. "Once they heard the first one, Georgia Geography, they [were] eager to hear the rest."
Mr. Yancey has uploaded some of his other historical hits to Youtube, including "Hello from the Cherokee," which is a take on Adele's "Hello".
When it comes to this method, Yancey's ultimate goal is to connect with his students, engage their minds, and make sure they remember the important lessons that might seem too distant from them.
"I realize that in order the reach the kids you have to take steps in their direction," he explained. "I have had kids come back years later and tell me that they remember the content, which is the ultimate goal of teaching, isn't it?"
Lin better watch his back- there's a new rapping historian on the horizon.
