			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The <a href="http://www.libraryvideo.com/ssl/default.asp" target="_blank">Schlessinger Science Library</a> is a comprehensive video library that supports the entire K-4 &#038; 5-8 Science Curriculum. Here are the <a href="http://www.libraryvideo.com/ssl/checklist.asp?mscssid=5XTN6JW3AP4J8MJWFNVUCXRV9FUAAG7B" target="_blank">topics covered in this series</a>. If you click on a particular topic you can see a video clip of it before heading out to the library.</p>
<p>Our library has these available and while the videos are short, they are packed with info. If your library does not have them on VHS or DVD, ask them for an interlibrary loan. Do ask about your library&#8217;s rules as my local library cannot renew the items.</p>
<p>Also you can use the teacher&#8217;s guides for spelling and vocab lists, make your own worksheets, flashcards or GeoSafari cards.</p>
<p>
<ul>
    <lh>Each video includes:</lh></p>
<li>Science topics that complement any text book</li>
<li>Fun and clear explanations of science concepts</li>
<li>Hands-on activities</li>
<li>Demonstrations</li>
<li>Investigations</li>
<li>Experiments</li>
<li>Outstanding on-screen graphics</li>
<li>FREE Teacher&#8217;s Guides</li>
</ul>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>This is a neat game about frogs. I like that the site also shows a little picture of the completed game.  <a href="http://www.twingroves.district96.k12.il.us/Wetlands/WetlandGames/FroglandGame/FroglandGame.html" target="_blank">http://www.twingroves.district96.k12.il.us/Wetlands/WetlandGames/FroglandGame/FroglandGame.html</a></p>
<p>Your Mission&#8230;..<br />
You are a young frog, newly hatched, and you belong to a species of frog that is being threatened by humans and other dangers. Your job is to help your population survive another year and hopefully grow. You must do this by traveling from the pond where you now live to a nearby safe marsh. Your key to succeeding is to use your luck and your population points to save the frogs.</p>
