Video 4: Photosynthesis Rap         


                                     
WARNING:  After watching this video you might find yourself singing this Photosynthesis rap!

This rap is by Rhythm, Rhyme, & Results.  The images that accompany the rap go very well with it.  The rap explains the process of photosynthesis step by step. It lists all the reactants, where they are found,  and the products of the reaction.  It goes to the more detailed phases, the light reactions, the Calvin Cycle and where they occur. It also shows the importance of photosynthesis to life. It is amazing how much material is covered through one song.

I think it is a great review of the whole process of photosynthesis, the repetition of the lyrics will definitely  help you remember what photosynthesis is all about.  It is a great way to learn the process if you do better with visual learning.

  1. I really liked this video and the rap that was associated with it. I had a good understanding of the basic photosynthesis and the first part of the song reinforced that learning. The second half of the song with the chemical compounds was more complicated (felt like the bug-eyed lady) and I had to watch the video again to understand that portion. Nice selection.
