Regions of the USA | Geography for Kids | Kids Academy

Make social studies for 3rd grade interesting with videos that engage your learners! These videos bring the early history of the United States alive with facts and information given to students in smaller, manageable "mini" lessons.

It might surprise your students to find out that Native American tribes had different languages, art, and beliefs. The video includes a brief look at several larger tribes such as the Sioux, Apache, Cherokee, and Navajo.

The Kids Academy US history for kids collection continues the United States' story with a video on the founding of the Jamestown colony in 1607. Discover why people sailed from England to North America and view where Jamestown was located and what the colony looked like.
Further exploration of the original 13 colonies gives students basic information on how the settlement of North America continued after the Jamestown colony. These original colonies eventually became states. At one time, the American flag only had 13 stars—not 50 as we have today.

With the formation of a new country, new holidays and traditions emerged. Videos explaining the American holidays of Thanksgiving and Independence Day instruct students on how and why these traditions started.

Finally, the last video introduces children to American inventors that changed the world as we know it. Meet Samuel Morse, Alexander Graham Bell, and the Wright Brothers. These innovators made the world a "smaller" place with advances in communication and travel. Samuel Morse gave the world Morse code. The code allowed for communication across long distances. Alexander Graham Bell went further with telephones, and The Wright Brothers paved the way to travel across countries in airplanes.

This compilation of videos is ideal for use in classes teaching US History for 3rd graders. Spark your students' interest in the history of the founding of the United States of America.

ASL Lewis and Clark for Kids

ASL Lewis and Clark for Kids Teacherflix 11 Views • 2 years ago

Have you ever heard of the Lewis and Clark Expedition? What about Sacagawea? In this video, you and your kids will learn all about this incredible journey. Before we talk about the expedition, it's important to understand why it happened in the first place. And that reason all lies in the Louisiana Purchase.

President Thomas Jefferson bought about 828,000 square miles of land from the French, which included six states and parts of nine others. This purchase nearly doubled the size of the United States! The colonists had never explored these areas before, and President Jefferson also wanted to know information about natural resources, plants, animals, geology, weather, and climate in the area. In addition, he wanted to establish trade and sovereignty over the Native American tribes along the Missouri River.

Once he got approval, Jefferson chose Meriwether Lewis and William Clark to head the journey, since both were seasoned frontiersmen. He called the group the Corps of Discovery, and about 40 other men joined the group as well, offering various skills that would be necessary to accomplish their goals. The journey started on May 21, 1804, along the Missouri River. They started off traveling by boat and eventually made it to the edge of the Great Plains.

Initially, there was a little tension when the Corps met the Lakota tribe, but the two groups remained peaceful due largely to the tribe's chief, Chief Black Buffalo. In April of 1805, Sacagawea and her husband joined the group. Sacagawea became a vital part of the group because of her interpretation and diplomacy skills, as well as her mere presence, which was a sign the Corps came in peace.

What happened when everyone finally returned to St. Louis? The journey yielded a lot of new information that was very useful, including facts about natural resources, plant and animal species, and land size. Lewis became governor of the Louisiana Territory, and Clark became governor of the Missouri Territory. Sadly, Sacagawea passed away of illness in 1812, not long after the end of the expedition.

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

ASL What Is a Volcano? for Kids

ASL What Is a Volcano? for Kids Teacherflix 11 Views • 2 years ago

How many active volcanoes do you think there are in the world? What makes a volcano active versus dormant or extinct? In What Is a Volcano? for Kids, you and your students will learn the answers to the questions and more. Plus, you can conduct an experiment where you make your own model volcano!

A volcano is a mountain made from cooled lava, ash, or other material from previous eruptions. Some even exist on the ocean floor. There are over 1500 active volcanoes in the world today. Every day, 15 to 20 volcanoes erupt somewhere. In the United States, there are active volcanoes in Hawaii, Alaska, California, Oregon, and Washington. Movements of the earth's crust cause volcanic eruptions.

What's the difference between magma and lava? Magma is located beneath the earth's surface. It is made of liquid or semi-liquid rock. After gas bubbles inside the magma expand and build up the pressure in the volcano, the volcano erupts. Once the magma escapes the volcano, we call it lava. The more often a volcano erupts, the larger it becomes as the lava cools and builds up the volcano.

Keep watching to follow along with a fun experiment to see how volcanoes work. You can pause the video when prompted to make sure you gather all the necessary supplies (and people). For more detailed instructions, check out the link below to our Earthquakes and Volcanoes STEM lesson plan. Hope you enjoy!

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

T-Rex Facts for Kids | All about the Tyrannosaurus Rex

T-Rex Facts for Kids | All about the Tyrannosaurus Rex Teacherflix 11 Views • 2 years ago

NOTE: We would like to correct two errors in this video. T-Rexes were not ornithischians; they were saurischians. Additionally, the correct pronunciation of giganotosaurus is jai-ga-nuh-tuh-saw-ruhs. We apologize for the inconvenience.

When you think about dinosaurs, is the tyrannosaurs rex the first to come to mind? Maybe not, but we're sure you have at least heard of it! In this video for kids, you will learn fun facts about this king of the tyrant lizards.

The tyrannosaurs rex, or T-Rex, was an apex predator. That means that it was at the very top of the food chain; it was prey to no other animal. From snout to tail, it was up to 40 feet long, and it weighed 7 to 8 tons. That's as long and as heavy as a modern school bus! Despite the large size, these creatures could run as fast as 25 miles per hour!

The T-Rex had a strong sense of smell that helped them find prey as well as potential mates. In fact, their sense of smell is really similar to that of a house cat! And technically, the T-Rex is a distant cousin of the chicken as well. Some scientists even think the T-Rex might have had feathers.

Now, what about the arms? Well, watch the video to find out about these small but strong appendages.

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