Review Capsize Recoveries and Rescue Procedures:"Capsize Recoveries & Rescue Procedures" are Volumes 1 & 2 of the University of Sea Kayaking IN DEPTH instructional video series. Knowing capsizes are part of sea kayaking and emergencies do occur we decided to start our series with skills and information that would help keep you kayaking for many years to come and add pleasure to your paddling career. As a kayaker you will feel more confident if you know: how to deal with capsizes, how to get your partner or yourself back into your boats, how to dress for immersion, the causes and prevention of exposure and how to deal with emergencies. More importantly we focused on teaching the necessary skills to minimize the likelihood of emergencies occurring. Our experience has taught us that most emergencies are a result of lack of education and poor skills. You would need to take a two or three day clinic to learn the same skills and information presented in this comprehensive video set. The information provided in these videos is so interconnected we could not sell them separately. Therefore, we combined the set and offered them at an incredible price for the four plus hours of information (normally a one hour instructional video sells for $29. 95). At USK we believe you cannot afford to be without this information if you are serious about sea kayaking. [+]

Review Math Monsters Episode #4: The Making of Tens:Math Monsters™ is a brand new, beautifully animated public television series that is designed to help students, grades K through 2nd, learn mathematics at home and in the classroom. The series was produced in cooperation with The National Council of Teachers of Mathematics to meet and support their newly released national standards for K-2 math instruction. Math Monsters is an entertaining gateway to in-depth mathematical thinking and reasoning involving meaningful real world problems. In Episode #4, The Making of Tens, The Monsters decide to send boxes of fruit (gollywomples) to their relatives for presents. Gollywomples come in green and blue. The Monsters want to send out boxes of ten to each relative, but decide that no two boxes should contain the same combination of fruit. They spend time figuring out all the different combinations of ten that they can make. They begin to notice patterns forming in the different combinations, i. e. as one number goes up, the other goes down. [+]
Once the packages are made they need to be labeled and so addition and subtraction are used to help determine how many fruits of each kind are in each box. Our field trip is to a bank, where the making of tens is shown in a variety of ways.

Review " I Have Roots & Branches"... Personal Reflections on Adoption / MurLil Production:"WINNER: 2004 Film Advisory Board AWARD OF EXCELLENCE!" While the process of adoption has been receiving increasingly greater attention, the feelings of those touched by adoption are often overlooked. Director and executive producer Flory G. Herman, a member of the American Academy of Adoption Attorneys since 1994, takes an intimate look at adoption in this new must-see 47 minute documentary-style film "I Have Roots and Branches". Personal Reflections on Adoption, a 2004 winner of a prestigious Film Advisory Board Award of Excellence, recognized world-wide for quality family/children's entertainment. The film conveys a positive, encouraging and honest message about adoption, and is most appropriate for children viewers. Viewers will find out first hand how it feels to have been adopted and discover that all kids have common experiences growing up in their homes, surrounded by the families they know and love. Families formed through adoption, prospective adoptive and birth parents and professionals in the adoption community should not miss this wonderful film. The video is appropriate for schools and libraries as a resource for adoption education.

Review Barney's Big Surprise / Warner Bros. Television:This rousing stage version of Barney won a Performance magazine poll award for its 1997 tour, and the tape version is equally successful. The big surprise of the title is a party honoring BJ's 7th birthday. After several songs, the kids decide to decorate the tree house, while Barney, BJ, and Baby Bop climb into the Barney-mobile and head for Professor Tinkerputt's toy shop. The elaborate toy shop set obviously delights the young audience as it features giant turning gears and adult-sized clowns and robots (hence the song "We Are Little Robots"). In the second act, the dino trio makes it back to the tree house via balloon and many a song. Back on terra firma, they are joined by party guests Humpty Dumpty, Old King Cole, Mother Goose and her gander, Clarence-just the excuse for a nursery rhyme medley. BJ gets the red scooter of his dreams, and the kids in the audience-and at home-get to sing "Happy Birthday. " The stage version of Barney is less schmaltzy than the TV version, making it of greater interest to the older members of the recommended audience of ages 1 to 8. Who knows? You may even give it a grudging glance or two. -Kimberly Heinrichs.
