Thing #7 - Video Resources

There is certainly no shortage of great video resources out there - just a shortage of time to sort through all of them! I really liked the www.NeoK12 resource because it had a large selection of kid-friendly videos, lessons, quizzes, games and puzzles but I couldn't figure out how to download them or embed them in my blog. Using Google Video Search, I was able to find the following videos (one on coral ecosystems and one on Barack Obama's biogrpahy) that would be helpful supplements to a science or social studies lesson. The only problem with Google Search is that you have to more carefully preview the videos as it includes many "adult" oriented videos that would not be appropriate for an educational setting (unlike the NeoK12.com resource that seemed to be more like a Discovery Learning child-firendly source).
