Money Rap Song

Well I know a song

It's really kind of funny
It's all about coins
And learning to count money
Pennies, nickels, dimes and quarters
Pennies, nickels, dimes and quarters
Now a penny means one (hold out 1 finger)
And a nickel means five (hold out 5 fingers)
Dimes are worth ten (hold out 10 fingers)
And quarters twenty five (flash... 10 twice & then 5)
Pennies, nickels, dimes and quarters
Pennies, nickels, dimes and quarters
Five pennies in a nickel (hold out 1 hand- fingers
stretched)
Two nickels in a dime (hold out 2 fingers)
Five nickels in a quarter (hold out 1 hand - fingers
stretched)
You'll know it every time! (using both hands do a
downward motion)
Pennies, nickels, dimes and quarters
Pennies, nickels, dimes and quarters Yeah!!!

Missing Math Mystery Poem

It was back to school,

After Christmas and New Years vacation,
I don't know the date, the time or location,
But when students returned, after holiday's sweet fun,
Something was missing, like 1 minus 1...
Just 1 subject, but which one was gone?
They couldn't remember, it had been too, too long...
They studied the schedule, tried to remember,
They knew they had English, like they did last School Year...
They still had science, and gym class, and art,
Which subject was missing? Which piece of the part?

There was music, and reading, and of course, social studies,

There was lunch and fine arts, recess with buddies...
Then one cloudy day, a ninth grader pleaded,
He remembered the thing, all students needed...
Maam Edianon, please, I want to learn math,
I want to learn now, 'cause math makes me laugh...
Maam Edianon looked, with an oh-so-shocked look,
Checked all her plans, then wrote in her book,
It's math she wrote, that's what's been missing,
For math is what students, have all been wish-wishing...
They'd forgotten math, and now they'd been caught,
And finally, finally, they'd found what they sought...
Because one ninth grader, who loved math a lot,

Remembered that numbers, just hit the spot...

So MATH returned, on a special MATH day,
And teachers and students,
All screamed hooray!!

Blaise Pascal
(1623-1662), France
Pascal was an outstanding genius who studied geometry as a child. At the age of sixteen he stated
and proved Pascal's Theorem, a fact relating any six points on any conic section. The Theorem is
sometimes called the "Cat's Cradle" or the "Mystic Hexagram." Pascal followed up this result by
showing that each of Apollonius' famous theorems about conic sections was a corollary of the
Mystic Hexagram; along with Grard Desargues (1591-1661), he was a key pioneer of projective
geometry. He also made important early contributions to calculus; indeed it was his writings that
inspired Leibniz. Returning to geometry late in life, Pascal advanced the theory of the cycloid. In
addition to his work in geometry and calculus, he founded probability theory, and made
contributions to axiomatic theory. His name is associated with the Pascal's Triangle of
combinatorics and Pascal's Wager in theology.
Like most of the greatest mathematicians, Pascal was interested in physics and mechanics,
studying fluids, explaining vacuum, and inventing the syringe and hydraulic press. At the age of
eighteen he designed and built the world's first automatic adding machine. (Although he
continued to refine this invention, it was never a commercial success.) He suffered poor health
throughout his life, abandoned mathematics for religion at about age 23, wrote the philosophical
treatise Penses ("We arrive at truth, not by reason only, but also by the heart"), and died at an
early age. Many think that had he devoted more years to mathematics, Pascal would have been
one of the greatest mathematicians ever.

Mathematical Sayings

If people do not believe that mathematics is simple, it is only because they do not realize
how complicated life is. - John Louis von Neumann

The essence of mathematics is not to make simple things complicated, but to make
complicated things simple. - S. Gudder

Parallel lines have got so much in common. But its a shame they will never meet.

Mathematics may not teach us how to add love or subtract hate; but it gives us hope that
every problem has a solution.

A mathematical theory is not to be considered complete until you have made it so clear that
you can explain in to the first man whom you meet on the street. David Hilbert

Mathematical Pick-up Lines

I wish I was your derivative so I could be tangent to those curves.

I am not being obtuse, but you are acute girl.
I am equivalent to the empty set, when you are no with me.
My love for you is like dividing by zero, you cannot define it.
Mathematics is not only for solving numbers. It is also for dividing sorrow, subtracting
sadness, adding happiness and multiplying love and forgiveness.
