I've found Treasure!

Netflix to be precise! I have been looking at the local and not so local video stores through the summer to find appropriate videos to support my lesson plans for this year. Needless to say the local selection is very depressing when it comes to good documentaries and such from the History Channel, PBS and A&E. I had seen a few over the summer that I wanted to used during our Egypt unit and our Greek unit. However, until I found Netflix I thought I would have to buy them. I signed up and am awaiting my first video. So I guess I will see how it goes.

I use all sources to convey information to my children. We happen to be movie watchers. We love them. So I always try to find a movies or program to go along with our concept. My ds loves the History Channels so I am lucky on that account. Not many 1o year olds love to watch documentaries.

So I guess I will await the mail man to see how efficient this movie by mail turns out to be!
