Songs for Education

I came across the Blog from the Educational Technology Guy, (http://educationaltechnologyguy.blogspot.com/2010/12/rush-band-some-great-songs-for.html) about Rush-the band, having great songs for education. I think that music is one of the best ways that teachers can influence students to connect with material. I have found that by teaching riddles and songs for tricky information students are able to better remember.
I think back to school and can remember seeing School House Rock for the first time. Even thinking about it now several songs pop right back into my head. If I were to sing those songs today, I would most likely not miss a word.
With technology and new advanced tools developing, I think that it is important to not forget the strategies that worked before these tools came along. With the help of technology and the internet, music and educational songs are at our fingertips. Music is a resource that teachers can not afford to forget about.
