In an industry where bad language, guns, and violence are often glorified, hip
hop has received its share of bad press for what some say has negatively
influenced today’s youth. However, just as day is to night and wrong is to
right, there’s always two sides to every story. Ms. Robinson, a certified math
teacher born Consuelo Robinson, decided to take this new found connection
between hip hop and math to the classroom by creating one of today’s fastest
growing math concept “Hip-Hop Tables.”
In June 2004, she was one of the first out of ten teachers to receive her
master’s degree in Innovative Teachings in Mathematics from Nova Southeastern
University, located in the heart of Davie, Florida. She used her musical
background and her teaching skills to create “Hip – Hop Tables” a new
mathematical break through designed to capture the attention of students while
simultaneously promoting less intimidating practices in the classroom. Like many
of us, Ms. Robinson recognized kids today could remember lyrics to many songs,
but only apply themselves to subjects which interest them. As a teacher in the
classroom, Ms. Robinson is the 'FIRST' to write an album, which features
“up-to-date, crunk-style beats,” complete with vocal effects which sound like
real hip-hop songs aired on the radio. You won’t find curse words or violent
lyrics in her songs. Only catchy phrases which allow you to enjoy a musical hip
hop vibe with a mathematical twist that adds up.
Hip-Hop Tables focuses on all the times tables from 1 through 12. Since its
release in October, 2007, it has received very positive reviews from kids who
enjoy hip hop music. It has also captured the attention of the local media,
several radio stations around the country, as well as a number of schools in
states such as Alabama, Hawaii, and Oregon.
Meanwhile, Robinson continues sharpening young minds as an Algebra teacher while
perfecting her newly found talent as an educational rap artist.
“Let's bounce to education!” Please add me and help spread the word!!
