Schoolhouse Rock!

45 episodes

Three-minute animated songs from the Saturday-morning shorts, sorted into the strands teachers still use them for. Grammar Rock names the parts of speech, with Conjunction Junction hooking clauses like train cars, an adverb shop, and a burst of interjections. Multiplication Rock walks the times tables, including the sevens and the twelves. America Rock explains how a bill becomes a law from the Capitol steps, and Science Rock takes on gravity, electricity, circulation, and where energy comes from. A few money songs cover an allowance and what interest costs you. Short, sung, and almost impossible to forget.
