This is a fun little song to add to your teaching collection. It teaches students how to find the volume of 3d shapes. I know my 5th graders always struggled with geometry concepts like this. Maybe they’d have done better with a song!

Just when you thought it was safe to start reading this blog again, I go and make ANOTHER math song post. I won’t write a rhyme though. It seems straightforward and simple, but counting backward is a difficult skill for most kids. It’s nearly as hard as saying your alphabet backwards, which many adults struggle with. This song from have fun teaching’s musical genius puts that skill into a couple minute routine to practice. Give it a try!

Once there were several Knights, who numbered nine.
Monsters and dragons they fought near a mine.
They finally won, and tied them with twine.
But the nine Knights let them go when they whined.

Counting is a huge skill in the first few years of school. What many don’t understand is that the patterns in skip counting also helps in multiplication. Practice skip counting with have fun teaching’s skip-counting songs. They have everything from 1’s to 12’s, as well as other math songs.
