My Take
Flocabulary is a neat concept however even though the price is low, i am not encouraged to use it due to having to pay. Students enjoy when concepts are put to song & learn well from them.
How I Use It
another way of reaching kids. i would use it as a way of introducing the vocabulary & then go back & listen to it for reinforcment. I would play it at times when students are working in groups/alone as background music.

Fun and engaging ways for students to learn!
The large variety of lessons on the website are great for me to see what my students are interested in and for me to do my lesson plans around. I love the usage of hip-hop music since some students would only be able to experience this kind of music at home or on their own. Incorporating it into informative and exciting videos allows students to connect more with what they are learning. The website is also easy to use. I would not recommend relying solely on this website, but it is a great starting point that teachers can create activities or further lessons from.
