9 Multiplication Tables HipHop Music Video
I came across this set of videos today and thought it was pretty refreshing, if somewhat different to my expectations of a 9 times table video!
It led me to wonder if the positive learning outcomes of creating a resource like this (which may simply be grabbing otherwise disinterested students’ attention) would outweigh the amazing amount of time and energy that has gone into producing it.
Have you ever produced a real labour of love for your students? What was their reaction? Was it worth it?

Interesting find. BTW, this was RT-ed from Twitter “Reading: “Nine great reasons why teachers should use Twitter” – http://bit.ly/2UIGb” Hint, hint.
Too bad it takes half the elapsed time to get to the meat of the issue, viz., the tables themselves. The secondary refs to dimes and so on, might also be useful as a mnemonic device.
I would say it’s just the modern rendition of the way multn tables have generally always been taught: use a *chant*. Rap “music” is essentially a modernized chant IMHO. In that sense, the only really ‘new’ thing is the use of video.
