This video segment from Nature profiles a small business in which homing pigeons play a central role.

Watch the rubber bands vibrate on homemade guitars in this video segment adapted from ZOOM as cast members talk about pitch and demonstrate how to make a cereal box instrument.

This video segment, adapted from ZOOM, explores the different sounds that a simple drinking straw can produce when you cut the straw and blow into it.

This video segment, adapted from ZOOM, demonstrates how to use a drinking straw and a bottle full of water to make low- and high-pitched sounds.

Join Tony as he discovers the effects of forces on all sorts of pizzeria objects.

Clara is on holiday in Italy and is finding out about electricity. Join her to learn about saving electricity.

In this lesson students will become Planet Defenders! They will identify personal and systemic actions to help protect our natural environments through a read aloud and follow-up discussion. They will also use the AR application Arcadia Earth to observe, interact with, and play out scenarios to analyze the outcomes of different actions on the natural world as a whole and on particular ecosystems.Students will be able to differentiate between garbage, recycling, or compostable objects.

Estimated time required: 1 class period.

Technology required for this lesson: Laptop/Desktop, Smartphone.

Students will continue the process of becoming Planet Defenders! They will explore and practice sorting items after their initial use and investigate the paths garbage, recycling, and compost can take to ensure sustainable practices. They will continue to use the Arcadia Earth AR application to observe, interact with, and play out scenarios to analyze the outcomes of different actions on the natural world as a whole and on particular ecosystems.

Estimated time required: 1 class period.

Learn about NASA’s Kepler mission and how scientists search for planets orbiting stars outside our solar system in this video segment adapted from NOVA.

From extreme weather to threatened ways of life, the effects of climate change are real, and they are happening right now around the globe. This Nutshell takes a look at just a few of the problems people are facing right now. [2:27]

Rapid climate change is a big problem. Luckily, it's one we can tackle. But it will take the work of every nation on Earth, especially the ones with lots of power plants, cars, and factories, and other things that use lots of energy. The most important thing is, we have to get started now! [2:28]
