Berlin Intermediate School 2016

Creative Math Songs at B.I.S.

Berlin Intermediate School

Songs parodied: Shut Up and Dance; Stitches; Rolling in Deep; Treat You Better; Drag Me Down; Uptown Funk

Above is the room where we wrote all our songs, and a picture of what came from my fortune cookie on the final day of my residency at B.I.S.! And it’s true: I had a fantastic time at Berlin Intermediate School. 

It’s near Ocean City, so I enjoyed warm weather, long flat roads, and 2 days bicycling the Boardwalk. The teachers and students were all excited and fun to work with. 

Mathematics is probably my least favorite subject to write songs about, but these 4th graders managed to write some really fun lyrics. We performed them all on the final day for one another - a huge crowd since there are SIX classrooms of 4th graders! Great work!

Parody - Rolling in Deep lyrics - Mrs. Paul’s class - 10/11/2016 

structure:

verse1: BIS math class in general

v2: Place value

v3: Rounding

v4: Multiplication

Pre-chorus: Taking math tests, how I feel, stress, worry, success

Chorus: Solving problems and thinking about numbers

verse 1: - B.I.S. Math Class in general

Math is like a fun confusing game

Miss Paul is awesome so I’m sure glad I came

Finally I can figure out five times three

Maybe you can find out the answer with me

verse 2: - Place value

One million, six zeros in a line

I have to round to tens for each and every dime

Scientists divide and multiply

Using the numbers to figure out where and why

pre-chorus: - taking math tests, how I feel, stress, worry, success

The kids are nervous they might flunk the test

They keep on thinking that they might not have them right

Teachers keep telling us: “Finish the test!”

I can’t stop raging

chorus: solving problems, thinking about numbers, 

I wished I got an “A”

Instead I got a “B”

Math got my brain so confused

Can you teach us more please

verse 3: - rounding

I have rounded to the nearest ten

I’m rounding to the hundreds, many numbers stuck in my head

Rounding gives you answers short and sweet

I found the answer my paper is complete

pre-chorus: - taking math tests, how I feel, stress, worry, success

The kids are nervous they might flunk the test

They keep on thinking that they might not have them right

Teachers keep telling us: “Finish the test!”

I can’t stop raging

chorus: solving problems, thinking about numbers, 

I wished I got an “A”

Instead I got a “B”

Math got my brain so confused

Can you teach us more please

verse 4: CLAP: - multiplication

Multiplication is very fun

Count your factors to see if you are done

Find the answer using an array

Once your model’s complete, shout out hip hip hooray!

bridge:

(You’re gonna wish you never missed a math day)

You couldn’t add at all

(Rounding all the numbers, rounding with my peeps)

You couldn’t add at all

(You’re gonna wish you never missed a math day)

At all, at all, at all

chorus:

I wished I got an “A”

Instead I got a “B”

Math got my brain so confused

Can you teach us more please

And anytime you want it to stop

My teacher helped me cuz she’s so great

My class worked really hard

Earned dojo points and stars

Hello, desert

Watch out for cacti cuz their needles seriously hurt

I’ve no water, I could die

A desert bobcat chewed my leg and I’m gonna say bye bye.

Grasslands, hot and dry

I can’t see all of the cheetahs cuz the grass is way too high

Pre-chorus 1:  

There’s such a difference of habitats

And tons of blossoming plants

Hello from these different lands

Plains, trees and desert sand

To find a habitat as good as gold

I’d hate to live in a place that’s too cold

Hello, from all habitats

In the grasslands there are wildcats

The desert is scorching and sizzling hot

Predators and prey, it’s the circle of life, lion’s roar.

V3: 

Hello, it’s raining

It’s so tropical and humid and my view is blocked by trees

A frog’s in my food

It is dreary, I am traumatized and I don’t know what to do

There’s such a difference of species

And places they call home

Hello from these different lands

All Searching For Their Food 

parody of Shut Up and Dance with Me

chorus 1:

Oh don’t you make a sound     

They have their eyes on you     

You should stay off the ground        

Or you will be a panther’s stew   

The Ocean is cold, deep and blue  

Creatures are roaming

All searching for their food      

verse 1:

We were swimming with the fish

The angel, parrot, and clownfish

Rainforests off the grid

It almost rains every day

chorus 3

bridge:

Deep in the trees

I’ll Be Needing Seeds 

parody of Stitches by Sean Mendes

Verse 1:

Savanna is the place to be

The cheetahs chasing zebras past the trees

Elephants roaming on the plains

With the lions ruffling their manes all day

Pre-Chorus 1:

I’m getting chased by a roaring lion

I don’t know if I’ll make it out alive

It looks really terrifying

Start running

Chorus 1:

The lion is chasing the zebra

Who’s hoping not to be a pizza

And the bird had better watch out

It might go up a snout

The Arctic Tundra’s so cold

With lichens that look a lot  like mold

And through the seasons wet and dry

The cheetahs hunt with pride

Verse 2:

Tundras are an icy cold place

Feels like needles whipping your icy white face

White foxes roam the snowy floor

There’s lots of lichen but no trees

A visit there would make you freeze

Pre-Chorus 2:

I see a hungry polar bear

If there was Wi-Fi I’d call 9-1-1

Then I start feeling the freezing air

Let’s go

Chorus 2:

Savannas,  grassy, wide and burning

The Tundras getting cold and freezing

And now that I’m without your trees

I’ll be needing seeds

The lions chase the zebras

The hunters race after the cheetahs

And now that I’m without your trees

I’ll be needing seeds

Bridge:

Lions on the plain

Gotta boogie far away

Lions on the plain

Gonna end up in pain

Lions on the plain

Oh gotta stay away

Wolf in the snow

Got  a real cold blow

Wolf in the cave

It’s a real windy day

Wolf in the snow

Got a real cold blow

Wolf’s in the cave

If I don’t get away I may end of as prey

Repeat Chorus 1 and 2

Coda:

Through the seasons wet and dry

The cheetahs hunt with pride

Now that I’m without your trees

I’ll be needing seeds

Sleep All Night

parody of Stressed Out by 21 Pilots

Verse 1:

I wish it wasn’t always snowy so I could see

I need some gear so I wouldn’t freeze

I wish I found some penguins in the snow

Every time I walk the wind feels like I’m slow-mo

When I’m in the arctic I feel really frigid

The ice covers the water like a its lid

Prechorus:

My name’s dragonfly and I live in a swamp

My name’s dragonfly and I live in a swamp

Chorus:

Wish we could be a wolf, living in the dark

Hunting for my prey, howl at the moon and sleep all night

Wish we could be a wolf, living in the dark

Hunting for my prey, howl at the moon and sleep all night

ooooowwwwww 

Verse 2:

One time a certain smell took me back to the forest trees

You can go camping here, you’ll be shocked at what you can see

You might see a big wolf sharp claws shaggy fur

Might get caught, trying to escape. I’d probably never escape it

Verse 3:

Wetland rainy, a bunch of alligator’s, so creepy

Slimy green frogs are everywhere so leapy and sleepy

Snakes, flowers, lily pads. Why does it have to be so sad

When the frogs are croaking I’m wondering if their joking

Prechorus:

My name’s dragonfly and I live in a swamp

My name’s dragonfly and I live in a swamp

Chorus:

Wish we could be a wolf, living in the dark

Hunting for my prey, howl at the moon and sleep all night

Wish we could be a wolf, living in the dark

Hunting for my prey, howl at the moon and sleep all night

Bridge 1:

Water, caves, trees, and burrows, all to keep us animals warm

Gotta build a shelter to survive different storms

Animals need their food, they will get it, yes they will 

Arctic Woodland, wetlands  

Repeat Bridge 1:

Chorus:

Wish we could be a wolf, living in the dark

Hunting for my prey, howl at the moon and sleep all night

Bridge 2:

Wetlands are soaking, icelands are chilly and bright. 

The Woodlands are just right for the animals at night.

Habitats Rule the World by The Elginators; parody of Drag Me Down by One Direction

verse 1:

I’ve got the arctic as my home

I'm in an icy zone

I’ve never seen you look so freezing

I’m swimming with a seal

I really want to squeal

The temperature is now sub-freezing

pre-chorus 1:

Talk about creatures, there’s a lot of them

The ocean and the arctic have animals that swim

The polar bears and seals have lots of warm fur

Ocean depths with frigid temperature

Burr!

chorus 1:

Wondrous unique and cool

I learned about them with you in school

Look at the facts on google

With our help, these habitats rule the world

chorus 2:

Wondrous unique and cool

I learned about them with you in school

Look at the facts on google

With our help, these habitats rule the world

The ocean and arctic, these habitats rule the world

The ocean and arctic, these habitats rule the world

verse 2

In the water I am brave

I’m not scared of the waves

I’ve never seen the sea so crazy

I got an ocean in my heart

I’m swimming with the sharks

I’m not scared, the sharks are lazy

pre-chorus 2

Caribous munch moss in this habitat

If they went to McDonalds they would get too fat

With no plants in the ocean all the fish would die

Then the food chain would go bye bye

BYE!
