Mr. Duey’s Class Dis-Missed CD (or download on Amazon.com) contains 17 rap type songs on different aspects of education. Mr. Duey created this CD while teaching sixth grade and observing where his students were struggling. Included on the CD are five Math songs (integers, GCF/LCM, Point plotting, fractions and measurement); four Language Arts songs (nouns, verbs, essays, and adjectives); four science songs (state of matter, rocks, cells, and atoms) and four social studies songs (lattitude/longitude, core democratic values, branches of government, and things changed).

This CD is excellent for grades 5-8, however, I will be using six songs with my second graders: nouns, verbs, adjectives, measurement, things changed (speaks of Martin Luther King, Jr.) and core democratic values because I think my students would understand these and they go with our standards. The songs have a great beat, and I’m pretty sure my students will love them. Words are included, so they can be easily taught to students. Students remember words to songs they like and enjoy singing. I think they will especially enjoy rap. Thank you Mr. Duey for providing another way to reach students with valuable information that they need to know!
