	108 Stitches: The Physics in Baseball Shows the various physical forces at play in the pitch, the hit, the flight of the ball and the run around the bases. DVD includes 4 programs: 1. The Pitch takes a look at gravity, air drag, and the Magnus force. 2. The Hit focuses on kinetic energy, the coefficient of restitution, and Newton's...
	All About Motion & Balance Understanding the world around us can be a real adventure! That's the message in this 11-part series for children in grades K-4. Kids travel along as our young host explores the world of physical science and how it can be seen, touched and understood in everyday life. Simple demonstrations will...

	Destruct 3 One player builds a block tower in the center of the board, then the other players attempt to destroy the stack using either a ramp, catapult, or pendulum. The destruction method each player uses is determined by a die roll. Points are awarded to players (including tower builder) based on how...
	Laws of Motion Isaac Newton himself shows students how gravity, friction, and inertia are related to mass, force, and momentum. Exciting graphics and re-creations allow students to see how Newton's laws of motion relate to real life. Experiments with roller blades, baseballs, and other common objects encourage...
	Motion Bill gets things rolling and then puts on the brakes to demonstrate...
	Motion, Energy, & Force Series This DVD contains 4 - 20 minute videos: Motion Concepts and terminology discussed include: frame of reference, speed, velocity, acceleration, deceleration, momentum, and conservation of momentum. Force & Newton's Laws Concepts and terminology covered in the video...
	Simple and Compound Machines When "Hardware Hal" holds a "Simple and Compound Machines Sale" he demonstrates to his assistants the six simple machines: the lever, wedge, inclined plane, pulley, wheel & axle, and screw. Shows how these machines make work easier by changing force, direction, or distance. Machines in...
	Simple Machines Learning about science can be hard work, but simple machines can make it easier. Let Bill Nye push and pull you around ramps, levers, screws, and pulleys. Simple machines simply make work easier by directing forces over distances. Instead of lifting a heavy box upstairs,...
	Simple Machines When a group of children attempt to move their play fort, they realize that six simple machines make the work much easier by changing either force or distance. They learn to identify real-world examples of simple machines including the lever, pulley, wedge, wheel and axle, inclined plane, and...
