If I were ever on a game show and asked to name all 50 states in alphabetical order, I could absolutely do it. And it’s not because I have a savant-like memory, it’s because in 8th grade we learned a song that listed all states in ABC order. I might not remember much else from that geography class, but I know those states, probably because it was presented to me in the form of a song.
Because music is a great way to practice and memorize things (and hey, it’s also fun!) I love using music in the classroom. See my parts of speech songs here and here.
I’m back at it again, this time with video! Bookmark this page or pin the video so you can use it with your class to review or teach r-controlled (or bossy-r) patterns.
