Multiply 4
"Play Games with 4"
This math hip-hop song gives students practice multiplying by 4. The song begins with mnemonics to help students remember their four facts. The second half of the song contains practice problems which challenge students to sing out the answer before we do.
When I multiply two numbers, I’m on it,
The answer is called the product,
So 4 times 2, the product is 8,
What do I do? I play games.
I have 6 board games in each room,
And in my house there are 4 rooms,
You might like board games, but I have more,
Because 6 x 4 = 24
4 x 1 is probably bored,
4 x 1 = 4
4 x 2 is running late,
4 x 2 = 8
4 x 3 do you need some help?
4 x 3 = 12
4 x 4 is kind of mean,
4 x 4 = 16
4 x 5 we’re not ending,
4 x 5 = 20
4 x 6 is just 4 more,
4 x 6 = 24
4 x 7 hold up, you better wait,
4 x 7 = 28
4 x 8 sticks like glue,
4 x 8 = 32
4 x 9 is up in the mix,
4 x 9 = 36
4 x 10, now I’m at a party,
4 x 10 = 40
What do I do when I get home from school?
I play games, man. I play games, man. (x2)
