We really enjoy this product!! It helps our son hold the information in his memory so well. The songs are clear and very understandable and the tunes are so catchy. The math product like this is also another good one. We hope they will keep making these for different topics. We wish the spelling one was as good as the history and math one.

My 8th graders didn't really care for it. I thought it would be great to have students create Movies to the songs? I never got around to making them. Maybe an end of the year project for younger students? My kids liked Flocabulary better. =)
