Math multiples idea

As you're probably picking up, my kids do a lot of their memorization through song, which seems to be even easier than poetry (we all remember the songs of our childhood!). Music seems to have so many benefits across the intellect, and it's a natural way to incorporate music training about rhythm, pitch, and more. Some of your budding musicians might be able to play these tunes on their instruments!

That said, we've been memorizing our math multiples to music these last two weeks. This week, we'll use the tune of B-I-N-G-O.

The multiples of four
to forty-eight
Are easy, can't you se-e?
4, 8, 12, 16
20, 24, 28
32, 36, 40
44, 48!
