Order of Operations song

We had fun learning the order of operations with a song we found online. Here's how it goes.


The Order of Operations
To the tune of “If You’re Happy and You Know it”

The order of operations goes like this: (clap clap)
The order of operations goes like this: (clap clap)
The order of operations goes like this: (clap clap)

Parenthesis (arms up and curved in ballet style)
Power, (fisted arms representing power)
Multiply (arms crossed in front)
Divide, (left arm down to side; right arm bent at elbow and straight across chest)
Then you add (bring the left arm up perpendicular to the other to make a plus symbol)
And subtract (take the left arm away)
From left to right (right arm swings to the right)
Left to right! (clap clap)
