As a former English teacher, I kinda wish you'd pronounce "distribute" right, but...... that would make the rhyme not as smooth.

I added a line at the beginning to help remember to clear the fractions first. <br /><br />First you clear your fractions,<br />So you do the CLAW action.<br /><br />(Claw aka distribute)<br />Thanks so much for all of the resources that you added to this page. It is much easier (and more fun) to teach with music!
