Afterschool Rap Videos
Creating rap videos is a great way to engage kids in meaningful and pleasurable learning.This is a great strategy afterschool programs can use to promote and support literacy, reinforce school-day learning, and in this case... teach important math concepts.
Anyone who knows us also knows that creating a rap video is outside of our typical "box" but that we also love to BLOW UP the box.
The word RAP doesn't immediately come to mind when you look at either one of us. RAP means Rhythm And Poetry.
We used a website... www.rhymezone.com to help us write the rhyme. Then our kids ran with the idea and created a great rap video. Check it out.
Based on the Common Core State Standard in math... "Identify and describe shapes... squares, circles, triangles, rectangles, hexagons... "
