DVD

Live footage and colorful graphics teach students about regions and climates, and explain the impact environments and living organisms have on each other. A terrarium project demonstration shows students how they can make their own living ecosystems. Teacher's Guide available in disk and online: www.schoolvideos.com

Travel deep inside the Earth to discover how rocks and minerals are formed, to learn about the three types of rock, and to understand how rocks change over time through weathering and erosion. See the entire rock cycle and learn how geologists determine the properties of rocks. Learn about the structure and composition of minerals.

With the help of Luke Warm, a weatherman on the water channel, two young baseball players come to understand why the big game might be rained out as they are introduced to the key elements that make up and affect the water cycle.

Stunning NASA and live footage combine with state-of-the-art animation to give students a clear understanding of the physical features that shape our earth. Terms like escarpment, plateau, butte, outlier, and atoll are shown in their natural states with examples highlighted on an animated globe. Learn the names of these landforms and where they are found.

The surface of the land has undergone many changes over its history. Water, rain, snow, and wind they all continually shape and form the Earth. Take students on a journey to discover how physical weathering, chemical weathering, and erosion occur. Identify that the destructive forces of erosion and weathering are slow processes that change the surface of the earth.

"Biomes of the World in Action" is a fun, informative series that takes students on a fast-paced eco-adventure around the world exploring the many characteristics that make these large regions of the world different from one another.

From the arctic tundra found in the Polar zones to the regions of alpine tundra located on the mountaintops of Europe and North America, students will get an up-close look at this fragile biome. Students explore the biodiversity that exists in these frozen expanses, while a fun, hands-on experiment demonstrates why so many tundra plants are dark in color.

Students will discover how the species of the rainforest have adapted to the temperature and humidity, and why the threat of its destruction will have a far-reaching impact on our planet.

Students will explore saltwater environments -- from shorelines to coral reefs -- and learn about the fish, plants, mammals and insects that depend on each other for survival in this aquatic biome. Examine concepts such as salinity and currents, and find out about the three major life zones found in ocean waters.

Oceans provide habitats for millions of marine species and cover more than 70 percent of the Earth's surface. Segments detail seafloor maps, the role of water in our planet's life cycles, three states of matter, and the crucial balance among all life-forms.

Segment 1: Geologic Time (6 min.) Learn how absolute and relative times help scientists examine the Earth's age, as well as prehistoric life forms. Segment 2: Prehistoric Life (4 min.) Discover how fossils are formed and see the clues they give scientists to learn details about prehistoric life and the history of our planet.
