Whether you are in remote learning or in the classroom, you can spice up learning by incorporating science songs into your classroom. If you are distance teaching, I love the idea of starting the Google Meet or Zoom session by playing one of these songs to get your students motivated and engaged for science class.
Here are some songs you may want to incorporate into your science sessions:
Science songs for your classroom
This is a fun song to include in your lessons. It should be noted that there is one line toward the end of the song that may make teachers feel uncomfortable when the artist says, “She made love to me,” while many students may not even pick up on it, you may want to shut off the song before it gets to that part.
Use this science song when teaching about planets or the universe. It was written after the poet’s mom died of cancer, releasing her spirit to roam freely around the universe.
I have also used these as a game to play at the beginning of class when introducing star systems. This starts off our solar system unit. Tell students to list all the words they hear that have to do with the solar system. This helps calm and interest students before class.
“Gravity is always working against me,And gravity wants to bring me down…”
This would be fun to use with a unit on force and motion when you are studying gravity.
An entire album devoted to science! All songs are three minutes or shorter and cover various topics such as the solar system, the sun, force and motion, elements, and photosynthesis.
Remember the song Gangnam Style that was a hit a few years ago? Well, this parody is a fun play on science.
Reviews the respiratory system and how it works. This would be a cute introduction or review of the process of respiration.
