Description:
Bring science to life with music. This resource links to a curated playlist of classroom-friendly science songs and raps designed to help students learn and remember key vocabulary, processes, and concepts through repetition and rhythm. These videos work well as bell ringers, lesson hooks, brain breaks, review stations, and test-prep refreshers.
Topics include a wide range of middle school and upper elementary standards across Life Science, Physical Science, Earth & Space Science, and Nature of Science, such as the scientific method and variables, states of matter and changes, atoms and the periodic table, cells and organelles, cycles in Earth systems, and more.
How to use in class:
- Play a song as a warm-up/bell ringer and ask students to write 3 key terms they heard
- Use the lyrics for a fill-in-the-blank vocabulary activity
- Add songs to stations for independent review
- Use as test prep the day before a quiz
- Assign as homework with a short exit ticket or reflection question
