A maths teacher from Pennsylvania has taken to using popular songs to teach his students mathematics. Known as @teachwithmrc online, Mr. C cleverly inserts the numbers where the lyrics should be, posts them on a whiteboard and gets his classroom to sing along.
Mr. C uploads his novel form of instruction to his TikTok account.
This particular clip used the lyrics to Taylor Swift’s 2014 hit Shake It Off to teach his class multiplication tables by eight at Hanover Elementary School in Bethlehem, Pennsylvania.
@teachwithmrc My students are so hyped for the Eras Tour in Philadelphia with @Taylor Swift this weekend! They hope this Shake it off count by 8 version goes viral and Taylor sees this one. #swifttok #taylorswift #erastour #teachwithmrc #teacher #teachersbelike #swiftie #swifties #philadelphia #bethlehem #teachersoftiktok ? original sound - Mr. C | Elem Spec Ed Teacher
