Music is one of the best tools for teaching and learning about a wide variety of subjects, especially when the content to be learned is a finite list. This song includes a recurring refrain and verses that contain the names of the fifty states, in alphabetical order. The state names are spoken to a rhythm that is written out, and the refrain of the song is sung in unison. It's not particularly difficult, and it's catchy. Truly, a cross curricular gem.
