Memor-i-sing CD: Skip-Counting Pattern Songs

by Kevin Schaffer

Catalog #XMKS01 

These silly, zany songs have easy-to-learn melodies and whacky lyrics that stick in your head.  The variety of styles will have your students singing number patterns as they count by 1's, 2's, 3's, 4's, 5's, 6's, 7's, 8's, 9's, 10's and 25's.  A printout of the lyrics is included.  Once learned, students use these counting patterns to explore:

• skip-counting and multiples
• counting the value of collections of mixed coins
• multiplication and division facts
• equivalent fractions
• simplified fractions
• common denominators
• fraction/percent/decimal equivalence
• least common multiples
• algebra t-charts and function tables
• rates and ratios
• commutative, associative and distributive laws
