The Human Eye for Kids | Learn why and how eyes allow us to see

The Human Eye for Kids | Learn why and how eyes allow us to see Teacherflix 6 Views • 2 years ago

The human eye is a fascinating organ in our bodies. Do you know how it works? In The Human Eye for Kids video, you will learn how exactly our eyes use light to create images. The muscles that make our eyes blink are the fastest-moving muscles we have! They are both voluntary and involuntary, so we can blink on purpose and blink as a reflex to bright light or dust in the air.

The reason we blink in the first place is that we need to keep our eyes clean. Blinking keeps dirt and other substances from getting in our eyes, and it helps keep them moist and not get too dry. Tears also help keep our eyes clean (and, of course, keep them from drying out). These important drops of water are made using the lacrimal glands.

The white part of your eye is the sclera, which is the outer covering of the eyeball that contains blood vessels that help blood flow to the eyeball. The cornea is a transparent dome in front of the colorful part of your eye. It helps your eye focus when exposed to light, kind of like a window. Something called the anterior chamber is the space between the cornea and iris that is filled with a transparent fluid that keeps the eye healthy.

Speaking of the colorful part of your eye, that is your iris. The iris works with the pupil, which is the black part of your eye, in an interesting way. Light travels through the iris before arriving at the pupil. Muscles attached to the iris change its shape to control the amount of light that gets through the pupil. The pupil is what lets light enter your eye. It gets bigger when we need more light and shrinks when there's plenty of light.

We hope you and your student(s) enjoyed learning about your eyes! If you want to learn even more, head over to our website and download one of our many free lesson plans about the human body, full of activities, worksheets, and more!

ASL Time Zones for Kids

ASL Time Zones for Kids Teacherflix 6 Views • 2 years ago

Do you know what a time zone is, or which time zone you live in? In this video, you and your kids will learn all about time zones. You'll even learn some interesting facts about several time zones. For instance, did you know that the entire country of China has one time zone? Even if it's dark outside, it may still be 2 o'clock in the afternoon! In addition to that, both Alaska and Hawaii are the only states in their time zones. Including Alaska and Hawaii, there are six total time zones in the USA.

You will also learn how some of these time zones get their names. In America, the time zones are named according to their general location. The Eastern time zone is so named because it's on the east side of the country. The Pacific time zone is next to the Pacific ocean. And Mountain Standard Time is called just that because of the Rocky Mountain range that runs through many of the states in that time zone.

What about jet lag? Or even flying in an air plane when it never seems to get dark? This video also explains why both of these odd things can happen. You may have even experienced it yourself!

We hope you and your student(s) enjoyed learning about time zones! If you want even more information, head over to our website and download one of our many free lesson plans about time zones, full of activities, worksheets, and more!

ASL Facts about Africa for Kids Teacherflix 6 Views • 2 years ago

What do you know about the many African countries? Have you ever visited any of the famous landmarks? Learn all about this beautiful continent in Facts about Africa for Kids. You and your students will discover just how amazing Africa is.

Almost right off the bat, you and your kids will learn that Africa is considered the Mother Continent or Cradle of Mankind. The reason is that Africa is the oldest inhabited continent on the earth. In fact, scientists have found fossils of humans and their ancestors through every stage of evolution. Africa is divided into 54 countries, which is the most of any continent. It is home to over 3,000 indigenous peoples, over 1,000 languages, and has a total population of 1.1 billion people.

Africa is surrounded by water, and its landmass is divided almost equally in half by the equator. The terrain includes a variety of habitats, including mountains, tropical rainforests, savannahs, and deserts. With such a variety of terrain, it's no wonder there is also a lot of different animals as well. These include lions, elephants, hippopotamuses, and zebras. But it also includes gorillas, snakes, and other tropical animals. You may be surprised to learn that the most dangerous animal toward humans is not a lion or crocodile. It's actually the hippo! Hippos are the most likely animal to attack a human.

Bats for Kids | Learn cool facts about bats

Bats for Kids | Learn cool facts about bats Teacherflix 6 Views • 2 years ago

Did you know that bats are the only mammals that fly? It's true! Many people mistake bats for birds for this very reason. Believe it or not, bats are more closely related to humans than they are to birds. They don't have feathers; instead, they have fur in various colors. They have fingers and thumbs just as we do!

There are over a thousand bat species. Some of them are very small, but some are so large that their wing spans are 5 feet wide! Their wings are pretty unique. They are made of a thin skin-like material that connects all their fingers and thumb to their feet. And despite what people think, bats have excellent eyesight and hearing.

Some bats eat other animals, like small birds, reptiles, mice, or even other bats. But most bats just stick to an insect diet. In fact, small bats about the size of an adult thumb can eat 4-8 grams of insects every night. That may not seem like much, but even if only a million bats ate that many insects, it equates to a thousand metric tons every single night!

We hope you and your student(s) enjoyed learning about this exciting unique mammal! If you want to learn even more, head over to our website and download one of our many lesson plans about animals, full of activities, worksheets, and more!

Layers of the Earth for Kids | Learn facts about the different layers of Earth

Layers of the Earth for Kids | Learn facts about the different layers of Earth Teacherflix 6 Views • 2 years ago

What do you know about the inside of our planet? In our Layers of the Earth for Kids video, you and your students will discover some facts about the four main layers that make up our beautiful earth! The first thing you'll learn is that the earth is not simply a giant ball of dirt, rocks, and minerals. On the contrary, our planet is much more than meets the eye.

The crust is the outer layer of the earth and is actually between 5 and 25 miles thick depending on where you are. Under the oceans, it is only about 3 to 5 miles thick, and we refer to these areas as oceanic crust. The crust beneath the land reaches up to 25 miles thick. We refer to these parts as continental crust. The temperatures of the earth's crust can range anywhere between air temperature and 1600°F, which is hot enough to melt rocks!

This thin layer consists of broken pieces called plates, which float on top of the soft mantle layer below. (The movement of these plates is what often causes earthquakes.) The mantle layer is the largest at about 1800 miles thick. It comprises extremely hot, dense rock that flows like asphalt. The temperature at the top is about 1600°F, but it's about 4000°F at the bottom! This layer is basically made up of melted rock that allow the plates of the earth's crust to float on top. The melted rock that escapes to the earth's surface lead to the creation of volcanoes.

Then comes the outer core of the earth. The outer core consists mostly of melted nickel and iron. This layer lies around 1800 miles below the earth's surface and is around 1400 miles thick. The temperature ranges from 4000°F to 9000°F! The inner core is about 800 miles thick with 9000°F temperatures. There is so much pressure in the core that the metals squeeze very tightly, forcing them to vibrate as solids do. This pressure comes from the weight of the other layers that press down on it.

We hope you and your student(s) enjoyed learning about the crust, mantle, and inner and outer cores of our planet! If you want to learn even more, head over to our website and download one of our many free lesson plans about Earth, full of activities, worksheets, and more!

Animal Camouflage | Learn How Animals Can Blend In With Their Environments

Animal Camouflage | Learn How Animals Can Blend In With Their Environments Teacherflix 6 Views • 2 years ago

What is camouflage? Why do animals need to use it? Well, in Animal Camouflage, your kids and students will learn the answers to these questions! First off, there are many different kinds of camouflage, and we will discuss four of the main kinds that apply to animals in this video. Did you know that there is actually more than one reason that animals use camouflage?

A lot of animals use camouflage to hide from predators. The colors of their skin or fur helps them blend into the environment around them. Some animals, though, use camouflage to hunt. For the same reason that camouflage helps some animals hide to avoid predators, other animals blend into their surroundings to catch their prey unaware! In addition to hiding and hunting, a few animals use their coloring to communicate. Take the chameleon, for example. Most people think chameleons use color changing to fool predators. But that's not actually true! Chameleons change colors to communicate to other chameleons! They change color to communicate danger, to attract a mate, or simply to signal a change of environment.

These animals are so cool! You and your kids will discover just how many different types of animals take advantage of this amazing characteristic. And maybe you just might stumble upon one of these incredible creatures!

We hope you and your student(s) enjoyed learning about all these amazing and colorful animals! If you want to learn more, head over to our website and download our free lesson plan about animal camouflage, which is full of activities, worksheets, and more!

Alzheimer's Disease for Kids | What is Alzheimer’s disease? | Causes, symptoms, and prevention

Alzheimer's Disease for Kids | What is Alzheimer’s disease? | Causes, symptoms, and prevention Teacherflix 6 Views • 2 years ago

What is Alzheimer's Disease and what causes it? In this video designed for elementary learning we explore those questions and help gain a deeper understanding of this disease. Many of us know someone who has been affected by dementia or Alzheimers and if not many of us might in the future. We hope this video helps students gain a better understanding of the disease, its causes, symptoms, and some prevention techniques.

Alzheimer's Disease is a type of dementia that causes problems with memory, thinking, and behavior. Dementia is a set of symptoms that may include memory loss and difficulties with thinking, problem-solving, or language. Alzheimer’s Disease is the most common cause of dementia.

Alzheimer's Symptoms: As a person ages, they may forget things. It is normal. However, one of the symptoms of AD is consistent memory loss, especially of recent events and new information. This is the most noticeable trait of Alzheimer’s, it usually occurs gradually at first, but gets worse over time.

Alzheimer's Prevention Ideas: As you learn, your brain is constantly making connections, and one way that might help prevent Alzheimer’s as you get older is to produce new connections. You can do this by staying active, mentally and physically. This also apples to adult family members or friends who do not have AD. Encourage them to be active too.

All about North Korea for Kids | Learn about the history of North Korea

All about North Korea for Kids | Learn about the history of North Korea Teacherflix 6 Views • 2 years ago

North Korea is one of the most isolated and closed off countries in the world. Its official name is the Democratic People's Republic of Korea. The country is roughly the size of the U.S. state of Pennsylvania. And its total population is estimated to be around 25 million people. In All about North Korea for Kids, you will learn a lot more about this country, even though it's not easy to visit.

The government in North Korea is communist, meaning that it controls the lives of most of its citizens, even down to people's haircut! There are only 28 approved haircuts, so every citizen must choose from that list which hair style they want. Citizens can also be arrested for watching certain movies or practicing certain religions. They are also not allowed to talk about ideas that go against the government.

The government also controls the media and news. Propaganda, or news that makes the country look good, is common in the country, and there is no internet access. In fact, most North Koreans have never even seen a computer. Additionally, few people are allowed to leave the country, and only a few people are allowed to visit. Those individuals can only see approved parts of North Korea and are watched closely.

When Japan lost the war in World War II, the Soviets gained control of northern half of the Korean peninsula, so North Korea became a communist country. The Americans controlled the southern half, so South Korea became a democratic country. When the Soviets left in 1948, many conflicts between the two Korean countries arose. After a resulting Korean war, the same family has maintained control of North Korea and kept it isolated from the world.

Mount Rushmore for Kids | Learn all about the history of Mount Rushmore

Mount Rushmore for Kids | Learn all about the history of Mount Rushmore Teacherflix 6 Views • 2 years ago

Mount Rushmore is one of the most popular tourist attractions in the United States. What do you know about the monument and the individuals whose heads you see? In Mount Rushmore for Kids, you and your students will learn about some of the history behind this huge sculpture. You will also discover why the four presidents on its face were chosen to be the subjects of the monument.

Construction for Mount Rushmore began in 1927. Much earlier in 1884, a lawyer from New York named Charles E. Rushmore traveled to South Dakota's Black Hills National Forest. He decided to name the mountain after himself when he learned that it had never been named before. Fast forward to the 1920s: There was some discussion over a period of years about who to sculpt into the mountainside. In the end, the subjects they agreed upon were George Washington, Abraham Lincoln, Thomas Jefferson, and Theodore Roosevelt.

It took 14 years to build the monument and required the help of nearly 400 men and women who served in various capacities. They had to endure extreme weather condition and had to climb 700 stairs every day to reach the top of the mountain! An interesting fact you may not know is that 90% of the mountain was carved using dynamite. Despite these dangerous conditions, not one worker died in all 14 years.

You may wonder why those four presidents were chosen. George Washington led the colonists in the American Revolutionary War. He was the "Father of the Country" and the first president. He was chosen to represent birth. Thomas Jefferson was chosen to represent growth because of his role in expanding the size of the U.S. by purchasing the Louisiana Territory. Abraham Lincoln represented the preservation of the nation because of his impact on preserving the Union during the Civil War and abolishing slavery. And finally, Theodore Roosevelt provided leadership when America experienced rapid growth. he also linked the east and west parts of the world through the construction of the Panama Canal. He represented development.

Animal Behavior for Kids | Learn about innate behavior, learned behavior and more!

Animal Behavior for Kids | Learn about innate behavior, learned behavior and more! Teacherflix 6 Views • 2 years ago

In this video about animal behavior we will learn all about the different kinds of behavior including, innate behaviors, reflex behaviors, learned behaviors, imprinting and more! Birds build nests. Dogs sit roll over, chase sticks, and may do other tricks. Spiders build intricate webs. People blink, read books, talk to each other. Bees do special dances. What does each of the actions have in common? You are correct if you said they are behaviors.

A behavior is a way in which an animal or person acts in response to a situation or stimulus. Behaviors are the ways animals interact with other animals or with their environment. However, not all behaviors are attained in the same manner. For example, you had to learn how to read, but you did not learn how to blink. A dog was taught to sit up or roll over, but a dog did not learn how to dig a hole in the ground. Some behaviors animals may be learned, and other behaviors are a part of the animal at birth, and they do not need to learn them. They are born with already knowing how to
perform certain behaviors. You had to learn how to talk, read, and write. Your parents or teachers have taught you to do things, or you may have learned on your own, like playing a favorite game. Other behaviors, like blinking and grasping, are called reflexes; you were born with those behaviors.
The two types of behaviors are called innate behaviors and learned behaviors and in this video we will learn all about these different kinds of animal behaviors.

After finishing the video, we invite you to download our free 12 page lesson plan with more activities, worksheets and learning opportunities about animal behavior. It can be downloaded here: https://learnbright.org/lesson....s/science/animal-beh

ASL Germs for Kids

ASL Germs for Kids Teacherflix 6 Views • 2 years ago

Germs are everywhere. They are often responsible for making people sick. They're so small, you can only see them with a microscope. In Germs for Kids, you and will learn all about the four types of germs that exist in the word: bacteria, viruses, fungi, and protozoa. Let's see what you already know and what you will learn throughout the video!

The first type is bacteria. Bacteria are single-celled organisms that live inside and outside of you body. They can cause ear infections, sore throats, cavities, and more. Not all bacteria are bad, though. In fact, there is lots of good bacteria in some of the food we eat, and our bodies need good germs to help use up the nutrients we ingest. Doctors even use good bacteria to create medicines and vaccines.

Viruses, on the other hand, are all bad. Some examples include chicken pox, the flu, and the measles. Viruses like to invade healthy cells and multiply as the host cell multiplies. Because our bodies have so many cells, there are lots of places for viruses to invade. When we get sick from a virus, we can get what's called a vaccine or immunization to help fight it.

The next type of germ is fungi. A fungus is like a plant and actually consists of many cells rather than just one. Fungi like to live in warm and wet places, such as between a person’s toes. Many fungi don’t cause problems for healthy people. Examples include athlete’s foot, skin infections, and other rashes. Some fungal infections are contagious and can pass from one person to another.

The last type of germ is a protozoa. Like fungi, protozoa live in wet places. And like bacteria and viruses, they also have only one cell. Many live in the water, which is how they spread diseases and infections. Water that is not safe to drink may contain protozoa. These germs can lead to stomach aches, diarrhea, and nausea. The video explains lots of ways to help stop the spread of germs. Keep watching to find out!

We hope you and your student(s) enjoyed learning about these different kinds of germs! If you want to learn even more, head over to our website and download one of our many free lesson plans about this topic, full of activities, worksheets, and more!
