		<description>Hello, 

 I have a couple songs I used familiar tunes for that I will share. 

  The first is about area and perimeter to the tune of The Farmer in the Dell.

The area is times,
the area is times,
perimeter is plus, plus, plus,
but the area is times.

The second is some geometry terms that we need to remember in elementary school called 
Geometry Jargon 
To the tune of : The Ants Go Marching 2 by 2

The verticies are corners
Hurrah, hurrah.
The faces are the flat sides, sir
Hurrah, hurrah.
Concentric circles go inside
Similar shapes are different sized
and they&#039;re all the words we use in everyday math.

Congruent are same sized, same shape 
Hurrah, hurrah
A pentagon is shaped like a house
Hurrah, hurrah
A trapezoid is a triangle
with it&#039;s top chopped off 
two sides parallel....
And they&#039;re all the words we use in everyday math.</description>
