Description | This informative and entertaining introduction to beavers takes you inside a beaver’s natural environment to see how this amazing animal builds its home for protection from predators and harsh winter conditions. The beaver’s distinguishing physical attributes – its long paddle-shaped tail, sharp front teeth, and thick fur – are explained in detail. An intimate look at a mother and father caring and playing with their young inside their lodge reveals the close relationship between beavers and their offspring. Extraordinary film footage of beavers harvesting trees and moving heavy branches across the water of a pond explains how the phrases “busy as a beaver” and “eager beaver” came to be. |

Description | The American Civil War remains the deadliest war ever undertaken in the Western Hemisphere. Over 600 000 Americans died during four years of strife – more than died in World War 1, World War 2, Korea and Vietnam combined. This program examines the tension and deep-seeded hostility that had been growing steadily between the North and South. The separate cultures of these two regions led to different economic views which eventually led several states to secede from the Union. The war had begun. Genuine period photographs, re-creations, and artwork illustrate this in-depth exploration of events, conditions and economic differences that led to the Civil War. |

Description | This informative program teaches students about on of the most fundamental concepts in nature – ecosystems – and tells how they exists in a delicate state of balance. Beautiful footage shows how plants and animals interact with each other and with environment. Each element in an ecosystem is interrelated and if any one part of a system is destroyed all other parts are affected. Ecosystems ranging in size from an aquarium to a pond, and the materials of an ecosystem – air, water, land and life – are examined. Viewers will learn that the concepts that apply to smaller ecosystems also apply to the biggest ecosystem of all – the biosphere of our earth – and are urged to work toward preserving it. |
