Classical Conversation Cycle 3 History Review with Schoolhouse Rock!

As we are closing out our formal year we have been doing some fun review of this year’s Cycle 3 Classical Conversations.

We are viewing Liberty Kids videos through Discovery Education. The entire series is available and we are really enjoying them. You can also get these through your library in some places. There is a list here of the episodes in order if you need them.

Along with these, we are using some Schoolhouse Rocks videos to review some of the basics. This has been a great trip down memory lane for me. Whatever happened to learning time during Saturday morning cartoons? These were great. Wish they would bring them back. Nevertheless, here are some that we have been using. The kids love them!

The 13 Colonies – “No More Kings”

Westward Expansion – “Elbow Room”

The Preamble

Declaration of Independence – “Fireworks”

Immigration – “The Great American Melting Pot”

Revolutionary War (Paul Revere) – “Shot Heard Around the World”
