Music & Mathematics

~QUADRATIC FORMULA SONG~

As young children we all had our favorite kids songs:
*Old McDonald Had A Farm
*Twinkle Twinkle Little Star
*Rain Rain Go Away
*Pop Goes the Weasel
*and many more

To learn the quadratic formula song...
We will sing-along to the tune of Pop Goes the Weasel
Here is a video providing the tune: Let us sing!!!



Not only can mathematics be fun to learn through the use of technology, but mathematics can be fun by implementing music.
(Music applied through beats, lyrics, even fully developed songs)

So tell me...

#1.) What did you think about the video?

#2.) If you were to learn this song while learning the quadratic formula, do you think you'd actually remember the formula?

#3.) Is the use of music beneficial while learning mathematical concepts?
