Chemis-Tree

So maybe its because I am a chemistry teacher but I thought this was really funny - we will sing some chemis-tree carols on Friday. I have lots of them!

Silent Labs


Silent labs, difficult labs
All with math, all with graphs
Observations of colors and smells
Calculations and graph curves like bells
Memories of tests that have past
Oh--how long will chemistry last?

Silent labs, difficult labs
All with math, all with graphs
Lots of equations that need balancing
Gas pressure problems that make my head ring
Santa Chlorine's on his way
Oh--Please Santa bring me an 'A'.

The Chemistry Teacher's Coming to Town

You better not weigh
You better not heat
You better not react
I'm telling you now
The Chemistry Teacher's coming to town.

She's collecting data
She's checking it twice
She's gonna find out
The heat of melting ice
The Chemistry Teacher's coming to town.

She sees you when you're decanting
She knows when you titrate
She knows when you are safe or not
So wear goggles for goodness sake.

Oh, you better not filter
And drink your filtrate
You better not be careless and spill your precipitate.
The Chemistry Teacher's coming to town.

. Test Tubes Bubbling

---------------------------------------------------

(Sung to the tune of Chestnuts Roasting on an Open Fire)


Test tubes bubbling in a water bath

Strong smells nipping at ypur nose.

Tiny molecules with their atoms all aglow

Will find it hard to be inert tonight.


---------------------------------------------------

They know that Chlorine's on its way

He's loaded lots of little electrons on his sleigh

And every student's slide rule is on the sly

To see if the teacher really can multiply.

---------------------------------------------------

And so I offer you this simple phrase

To chemistry students in this room

Although it's been said many times, many ways

Merry molecules to you.

See - they're fun - aren't they? I will let you know what the high school kids think of them tomorrow - maybe we will go around the school caroling.
