A teacher, rapper and now internet sensation has launched a new TV series for children which teaches them facts through raps.

Jacob Mitchell, 38, created his TV series called MC Grammar’s Wonder Raps which is now available to watch on Sky Kids.

The teacher and English advisor from High Barnet took social media by storm in 2019 when a video of him rapping The Gruffalo to his daughter went viral. Jacob used to teach at Church Hill and Livingstone Primary and Nursery School in Barnet.

Since then, the father-of-three has performed on television and radio shows including The Ellen Show in the US and has signed a recording contract with Decca as well as becoming an ambassador for World Book Day.

Produced by Monkey for Sky Kids, the 10 x 5-minute episodes are tailored to Key Stage 2 learning and cover a range of educational topics from dinosaurs to digestion and saving the planet to pirates.

In each episode of this live action and animated series, MC Grammar wanders into the library, puts on his magic glasses and uses his imagination to explore a different subject like football or volcanos.

For those who don’t have access to Sky, there are plenty of clips on MC Grammar’s Instagram feed @mrmcgrammar
