I have always found that students learn and retain information better when they learn it in a song. Does anyone know a song about Photosynthesis?

I don't have a photosynthesis one but here is a cute pollination one

Go to http://www.mbgnet.net/bioplants/pollination.html on the right hand side there is a link to a pollination song. My class really liked it last year.

Go to www.songsforteaching.com and type in photosynthesis.

I don't have a song, but one of the teachers in my grade level does the "photosynthesis ballet" I am not sure of all the details since my stuff is at school but it goes something like this.

They start out as tiny seeds ( curled up in a ball)
Then they germinate (start growing into a plant)
It rains (use hands)
The sun shines (Hold arms out like sunbathing)
The plant uses the "chlorophil" in it's body to make food and grow (get bigger)

As I said, I think that there is probably more to it, but you get the idea. She had her class perform it each of the other third grade classes so they really remembered it.

They always have great tunes. It's been many years since I listened to my tapes, but I'll bet they have a great song. I can still sing the songs about precipation and decomposition.
