Binding: VHS Tape EAN: 9781569494103 Format: Animated, Closed-captioned, Color, HiFi Sound, NTSC ISBN: 156949410X Label: Walt Disney Video Languages: Manufacturer: Walt Disney Video Number Of Items: 1 Publisher: Walt Disney Video Release Date: August 05, 1997 Running Time: 30 minutes Studio: Walt Disney Video Theatrical Release Date: January 06, 1973 Editorial Review: Amazon.com: Science is an important but complex subject that often seems overwhelming to kids. Science Rock takes a nontraditional approach to this subject, entertaining kids with upbeat music that features lyrics absolutely packed with information. Simple, accurate descriptions of the human body's digestive, circulatory, central nervous, and skeletal systems, along with explanations of energy sources, the solar system, and gravity provide the thematic material for eight rock- and blues-inspired songs that kids find immediately appealing. Especially effective are the description of the central nervous system in "A Telegraph Line" and the discussion of nonrenewable energy sources in "The Energy Blues." Science Rock is a 1995 addition to the multi-Emmy Award winning Schoolhouse Rock! series. It preserves the feel and intent of the original series while offering up-to-date information about modern science. Each 30-minute video in this 25th anniversary collection contains a bonus music video featuring current rock stars singing favorite Schoolhouse Rock! songs--in this case, Better Than Ezra's rendition of "Conjunction Junction." --Tami Horiuchi Average Rating:
![]() Rating: - Science Rocks RocksIt taught me about science in a different way from the way people normally learn about science. I liked it because it's got some funny parts. Lots of times people learn science by seeing and having someone explain things to them. But this is different. For example, Telegraph Line uses a mailman delivering messages from the brain, which people don't usually see. This makes learning fun. Rating: - Great!I love this VHS!

It's amazing that in 25 years no one's been able to top it. I wonder how many high school seniors know as much as a kid who watches these videos about science. I prefer DVD, but whatever. My kids watch it all the time. I like it too. The songs are fun! The clever rhymes are unforgettable, but unlike some annoying kid's songs, you don't really want to forget these. I really feel like my kids need to be informed about the Bible too, so I'm overjoyed that they recently ...

Could anyone let me know of something similar or a way of buying the videos that will work in England. Please email me on mlovell@postmaster.co.uk Thanks, Marie |
