I was looking through my workbook and I saw "Interjections" and something just went into my mind. "Interjections, show excitement, show emotion." I may not know the lyrics well but I remember the song. I started to remember the entire lyrics to the song. "Provide an exclamation point or a comma when the feeling's not as strong. So when you're happy.." and so on.Schoolhouse Rock is something I have seen for a long time, and children will enjoy it for years and years. I remember seeing it a long time ago when I used to live in New Orleans, my teacher then showed it to us again after a test because Schoolhouse Rock is such a fun movie to watch. Even teens enjoy it.This movie actually has one fault. Sometimes the songs can be distracting. It's so good that you can forget what it's saying. But that is usually rare. The songs will stay in your head and if you remember the lyrics, you remember what the song is teaching you. There are some songs that are too boring though. Example, I remember "Naughty Number Nine" or something like that. Something about a cat and a mouse and a pool table.I recommend this to anyone, also I recommend it for teachers to show to their students. Specifically Language Arts teachers!

I remember taking my Social Studies regents in high school and singing the Constitution song to fill in all the blanks that were left out in the Preamble on my test and I could do it because I knew all the words!Schoolhouse Rock! is an excellent show for anyone who loves cartoons and who wants to learn. From politics to mathematics to English, there is a lesson in every short. And the tunes are so catchy that you can't help getting them stuck in your head. To this day, I still sing "Interplanet Janet" when I hear the name Janet. Hehe...and Conjunction Junction as well as I'm Just a Bill are, of course, classics. This is a great show for children, but adults will enjoy it alike. Check out Schoolhouse Rock!!

...other than these cartoons are my favorite pieces of animation! Schoolhouse Rock educates and entertains seamlessly at the same time, and I've learned so much more from these cartoons than anything in school. This is how we should learn everything!Both the songs and cartoons are equally brilliant. Bob Dorough, who penned a great number of the tunes (including all of the Multiplication Rock songs, which are my favorites), is a fantastic and underrated songwriter with a sharp sense of humor to match. Lynn Ahrens also contributed some wonderfully memorable songs, my favorite of hers being "A Noun is a Person, Place, or Thing."Tom Yohe, who was a key designer for this series, was such a wonderful artist who could make the most seemingly simple characters so appealing in their own way (much like the Peanuts characters). He was the artist behind the Conjuction Junction Conductor and the Bill, among many other classic characters. Sadly, he died a few years ago.But the best songs in the series are the ones not everyone remembers. My favorite Schoolhouse Rock song of all time is "Little Twelvetoes," and even most people who were kids in the '70s don't remember it. It's a bizarre little tune that teaches you how to multiply by 12, and the cartoon itself is even better than the song!But almost all the songs are really super (with the exception of Money Rock. While it isn't terrible, it just doesn't compare to the classics), and check out the DVD with all the tunes! It includes a new America Rock song, and it's surprisingly delightful. All in all Schoolhouse Rock is a classic that will delight kids for generations.

Whoever came up with Schoolhouse Rock was a genius. Part of the power of these little cartoons was that they were run like commercials between other shows on Saturday morning. You couldn't help but learn. It's been almost sixteen years, but to this day, I can still recite the preamble.
