ABC Phonics Chant With Musical Accompaniment
This video is a phonics chant to help students practice and review their phonics and alphabet at home. Each letter is shown on the screen first in upper and lower case. Then the sound of each letter is made. Finally, the letter name and sound are stated with a picture of an item beginning with the designated letter and sound. For example, M, /m/, mouse. The letters are easy to see and the sounds are clearly made, making this great for phonics practice.
Basic Math: Lesson 2 - Equalities & Inequalities
This lesson consists of providing you with a Self-Tutorial on the basics of equalities and inequalities. I go over how to write results in interval notation, inequality notation, and set (set-builder) notation. I also explain in the printed notes how to use your graphing calculator to help you make comparisons between numbers.
Solving Inequalities in One Variable: Part 1 of 2
The instructor uses an electronic sketchpad to demonstrate how to solve linear inequalities in one variable. This video is part 1 of 2 and several problems are solved and plotted on a number line.
Graphing Linear Inequalities in Two Variables
This video begins with a simple inequality, then explains how to graph the inequality. The instructor begins by showing how to graph the boundary line, then tells how to show the correct solution set on the graph by shading.
Graphing Linear Inequalities from Standard Form
Instructor uses power point to demonstrate how to graph linear inequalities in standard form. Examples model finding the x- and y-intercepts, drawing a line through the two intercepts and forming a boundary line. The instructor then discusses whether the boundary line is dashed or solid and which way to shade the inequality, above or below the boundary line.
Solving and Graphing Linear Inequalities in Two Variables, Part I - Khan Academy
In this video, Sal Khan demonstrates how to solve and graph a linear inequality (y > 5). He starts with a number line. Salman Khan is the recipient of the 2009 Microsoft Tech Award in Education. (02:14) There is a lot of information on the screen--the viewer may want to open the video to 'full screen.' (02:15)
Graphing Systems of Inequalities, Part 2
The instructor in this video, Sal Khan, in an easy, conversational tone, continues to discuss how to graph inequalities. Mr. Khan uses the Paint Program (with different colors) to illustrate his points. Sal Khan is the recipient of the 2009 Microsoft Tech Award in Education. The student or educator may want to open the video to 'full screen' as the instructor is using a black background and the writing is small.
Graphing Inequalities with Two Variables
Just like equations, sometimes we have two variables in an inequality. Graphing inequalities with two variables involves shading a region above or below the line to indicate all the possible solutions to the inequality. This video clip explains how to graph inequalities with two variables by using some of the same techniques used when graphing lines to find the border of our shaded region. (1:42)
Jesse Owens, Berlin '36, Historic Olympic Run
This brief video has been taken from a vintage reel and shows Jesse Owens in Berlin '36, during the Olympics during his historic run. The images are slightly blurred, but this is understandable as the images are more than 70 years old. The video is in German. (1:12)
Olympic Games Though History
This is a very good slideshow concerning the Olympic Games. The slides appear a little too fast, but the information contained within the slides is interesting. There is no narration--just music and captions. (2:58)
Olympics, Ancient Early Games
The ancient Olympics began in about the eighth century, B.C. How important were those games to the Greeks? What honors were bestowed on the winning athletes? Why did they end, after twelve hundred years? (9:54)
Take a virtual trip to the ancient world to discover more about it. Move the video forward - to 6:00 - to begin the trip.
Olympics, Ancient - Honors for the Athletes
So highly regarded were winning athletes, in the ancient Olympic games, that their names were used in the Greek calendar. People referenced events by the year that a particular champion prevailed in his sport.
What other honors were bestowed upon winning athletes in the ancient games? Take a look at the very beginning of this clip from Seven Wonders of Ancient Greece.
Rome 1960: The Games of the XVII Olympiad The Games of the XVII Olympiad, from Rome, Italy. Video shows a picture of Wilma Rudolph and a few other facts about the games. There is no speaking in this video, the Olympic Theme plays in the background. (1:14)
Melbourne 1956: The Games of the XVI Olympiad The Games of the XVI Olympiad, from Melbourne, Australia. Video gives facts about the water polo game that became known as the “Blood in the Water” match. Video also shows a slide about the boycott. There is no speaking in this video, the Olympic Theme plays in the background. .
Tokyo 1964: The Games of the XVIII Olympiad
The Games of the XVIII Olympiad, from Tokyo, Japan. These were the first Games held in Asia. Video shows pictures of the Olympic flame and gives a little information about the games. There is no speaking in this video, the Olympic Theme plays in the background. (1:38)
Helsinki 1952: The Games of the XV Olympiad
The Games of the XV Olympiad from Helsinki, Finland. These Games were best known as the first appearance from the Soviet Union. PowerPoint type presentation. (1:36)
Seoul 1988: The Games of the XXXIV Olympiad The Games of the XXXIV Olympiad, from Seoul, Korea. This video gives important facts about the Seoul Games, the mascot of the games, Seoul became the second Asian city (after Tokyo) to host the Olympic Games, American Florence Griffith Joyner won three gold and one silver medal in track and field, Ben Johnson of Canada wins the 100 meter, but is later disqualified after a positive test of stanozolol, thus giving the gold to Carl Lewis
St. Louis 1904: The Games of the III Olympiad
The Games of the III Olympiad in St. Louis, USA. These games are originally slated for Chicago. However, they were moved to St. Louis as part of the World’s Fair. The flags of the nations are then shown. These were the first Olympics held in the United States, later hosts were Los Angeles (twice) and Atlanta. There is no talking in this video. Background music is the Olympic Theme. PowerPoint presentation. (1:23)
Antwerp 1920: The Games of the VII Olympiad
The Games of the VII Olympiad in Antwerp, Belgium. These were the first Olympic Games held since 1912, as World War I wiped out the 1916 Games, schedules for Berlin.
