Electricity
Adapted by C. Dawson
from School House Rock

When you're in the dark and want to see,
Electricity, Electricity!
Flip a switch and what do you get?
Every room can now be lit!

Rub a cat to make it purr,
You're building up static in its fur.
Motionless electricity,
Is called static, let it be!

Current flowing to and fro,
In a closed path, it will go.
It makes a circuit of electricity
The lights turn on, so you can see!


Gravity
by Adele Tolley Wilson

Gravity is a special force
That’s everywhere around.
It holds our Earth in orbit.
It keeps us on the ground.
It pulls things without touching.
When it’s measured, it’s called weight.
To overcome the pull of gravity.
You must accelerate.

Gravity
To the tune, "London Bridge is Falling Down"

Gravity is pulling down,
Pulling down, pulling down,
Gravity is pulling down
All around you!

Take a ball and toss it high.
Will it stay in the sky?
Gravity will pull it down
All around you.

Gravity is pulling down,
Pulling down, pulling down,
Gravity is pulling down
All around you!

Jump up high and down you'll go.
There's a force down below.
Gravity is pulling down
All around you.

Gravity is pulling down,
Pulling down, pulling down,
Gravity is pulling down
All around you

The Push-and-Pull Song
To the tune, "Row, Row, Row Your Boat"
          
Push, push, push your cart,
Gently through the store.
Fill it full of lots of things,
Then let's add some more.

Pull, pull, pull your sled,
Gently through the snow.
Let's get on and zip on down.
How fast can we go?

Push, push, push the boat,
As the wind does blow
Over the ocean and into the sails,
To make the sailboat go.

Pull, pull pull the flag,
As the wind goes by.
Pull the flag to make it flap,
Look how proud it flies!

Push, pull, make it move,
Try and you will see.
Objects move with a push or pull
Even you and me!

Did You Ever See a Magnet?
(sung to the tune, "Did you ever see a Lassie?")

Did you ever see a magnet, a magnet, a magnet?
Did you ever see a magnet pull this way and that?

On iron and steel, its pull is unreal!
Did you ever see a magnet pull this way and that?
A magnet has action, it's called an attraction!
Did you ever see a magnet pull this way and that?

Did you ever see a magnet, a magnet, a magnet?
Did you ever see a magnet pull this way and that?

Magnets
Author Unknown

I am a mighty magnet,
I can be very strong.
But if you use me exactly right
Nothing can go wrong.

I can pick up many objects
But not everything you see,
I only pick up objects
That are attracted to me.

So take me now and try me out
And you will quickly see,
What different kinds of things
Are pushed and pulled by me.

I’ve Turned Magnetic

A Poem by Gregory K.

I wish I could’ve turned athletic,
But just my luck… I’ve turned magnetic.

Paper clips fly up to greet me.
Nails, it seems, can’t wait to meet me.

I’m sticking to the baby’s stroller.
Look at me, I’m so bi-polar.

I make the TV super active.
At least the spoons find me attractive.

The phone’s for me? What’s that you say?
Why don’t I come out to play?

I think I’ll have to join you later…
I’m stuck on our refrigerator.
