Short post, more to come at a later time and date.
Someone thought it would be a good idea to make the math kids be creative. I had to make a song, book, or webquest. With my musical background, I chose song.
Click Here to view the rough draft of my song. Then comment. Lyrics are below, since I know it's hard to understand. It still needs some work, I know.
Verse 1:
An angle is a figure formed by two rays that share an endpoint.
The three most common types of angles are acute, obtuse, and right.
The directions the two rays travel relative to each other,
Affect an angle’s size and help determine an angle’s measure.
Usually we measure angles in units expressed degrees
but sometimes we use something else, radians are what we mean
a straight angle would be expressed as 180 degrees, it makes a line
but the equivalent in radians is expressed pi
Chorus:
The followings a list of words
That you should sing so you can learn
the words you need to know to study for geometry,
Angle, right, acute, obtuse, degree, supplementary,
Congruent, radian, straight, complementary,
Verse Two:
Congruent angles are angles with the exact same measurement
And two lines would intersect so angles formed were congruent
The angles would have measurements both equal to 90 degrees
And therefore also would be called right angles, you see
And if the measurement was between right and straight, it'd be obtuse
And if it was between zero and right it would be acute
And if two angles both together added up were 90
The angles relationship would be named complementary
And if again the angles added to be straight, or 180
The relationship of the two would then be supplementary
Chorus:
I hope you now have learned the words
To sing in order that you learn
The vocab you should know for angles in geometry
It's angle, right, acute, obtuse, degree, supplementary,
Congruent, radian, straight, complementary,
Oh, angle, right, acute, obtuse, degree, supplementary,
Congruent, radian, straight, complementary

disgustingly clever. Gold star. Your link didn't work for me- but I can't wait to hear it :)
This is really good! It reminded me of the School House Rock songs from my day.
