There are a few raps that I have written in order to help my students learn a concept. Here is the first that I wrote for an Algebra 2 class about radical expressions.
Break it down to the prime numbers
to help you simplify.
Now you wanna know
how to multiply.
Just do the outside by the outside
and the inside by the inside.
Do the same thing
when you gotta divide.
But to add radicals
gotta be exact.
They must be the same
so we can subtract.
And when you're done
make sure it's simplified.
And don't forget
that means rationalized.
The students seemed to like it and asked me to rap it again later. Let me know what you think.
