Song of the Month
PAY UP NOW
To the tune of Mony, Mony
copyright Mimi Sinclair 2009
The "next dollar up" strategy for estimating how much money is needed to make a purchase is frequently used in special education math classes. Here's a fun song to capture the student's attention while they learn the skill. Insert different amounts in the second verse for practice. Go ahead and dance to the song when all the work is done!
Pay up now with your money, money
Pay-up-now!
Next dollar up for even money,
Next-dollar-up!
Take your dollar and count up one
Next-dollar-up!
Say it out loud, just for fun,
Next-dollar-up!
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah!
Count your bills, count your money
1-2-3-4
Hand it on over, give me money
5-6-7-8
What does it cost, you’re almost done,
Five-ninety-five.
Take the five and count up one,
Next-dollar-up!
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah!
1-money, money
2-money, money
3-money, money
4-money, money
5-money, money
6-money, money
Next-dollar-up!
