Lodge McCammon is a professor whose interests lie in engaging students through technology, video, and music. He has been slowly creating songs depicting the important events in states' histories. Michigan is one of the states that he has completed. Now he is working on kinesthetic motions that follow the lyrics and meaning behind each song. The video below starts with his song about Georgia. This is definitely a YouTube channel I recommend you watch and subscribe too. I see many more engaging videos coming our way.

Dr. Lodge just added Michigan to his 50 State Project!  Dr. Lodge is working on "The 50 States Project," a 50-song album covering the basic history, geography, and economic structure of each state in the U.S. The goal of each song is to encompass what every student should know about his or her state. Here is the site to all the songs: http://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLkFXQnAzKU78Hz2833mKnet48DwqAuPD7 You can also check out his other projects here: http://lodgemccammon.com/themusic/educational/social-studies/   These projects include the US Constitution, Bill or Rights, 5 Themes of Geography, The Civil War, World War II, and much more.
