The Periodic Table (Rapping the elements!)
Loading...
Uploaded by Oortkuiper on Aug 7, 2011
Many people have heard of Tom Lehrer's 'The Elements' song. One day I decided to search for it online to memorise some stuff about the elements and found out that Daniel 'Harry Potter' Radcliffe had recently recited it on TV. I wondered what he (and the viewers) might have learnt about the elements by listening to it but shock horror...after listening I realised the song hadn't actually told me anything about The Periodic Table, except what's on it!
So I decided to do my own song, specifically about The Periodic Table.
The chorus contains the first 36 elements in order up to Krypton.
The first verse covers general info about the Periodic table.
The second verse lists the Alkali Metals and The Alkaline Earth Metals.
The third verse lists the Halogens and the Noble Gases.
Let me know if this rap helps you at all...or if it doesn't. Out of interest, if you manage to memorise the chorus, how long did it take.
good luck with your studies, or thirst for knowledge.
Peace,
O.K

Fantastic Job !!! truly great work considering creating a few more concepts and creating a CD or DVD /( know there is a guy working on math for the same thing.) then presenting them at a teacher convention -- you should be famous ..
