  I loved Beakman’s World. It was a more wacky version of Bill Nye.

    I think all English kids learn “Richard Of York Gave Battle In Vain”

    My dad suggested “Rip Off Your Green Bra, IVy” which is quite scandalous for my dad…

  I never saw it growing up, but my high school Chem teacher showed it to us every so often cause it was her daughter’s favorite show, and also some episodes had stuff that was part of some lessons

  Loved this show - it also began my crush on Alanna Ubach.

    Alanna Ubach is a national treasure.

  I still remember the one where he explained why water conducts electricity.

    Hope he explained the water isn’t what’s doing the conducting but rather the dissolved ions within. Pure, deionized water is a fairly good insulator.

      He did in the best way. By showing us water and salt by itself and asking which will conduct electricity better. Then revealed that neither alone can conduct electricity, but mixing them together bridges the circuit and lights up a lightbulb. For a 5th grade me it was quite a surprise.
