If you were asked to describe what it's like outside today, your answer would probably be couched in terms of weather conditions. You might talk about the temperature, refer to wind conditions, or possibly even gripe about precipitation. This fine resource teaches young viewers not only the definitions and causes of these weather components, but even how to measure them. Lots of easy "at-home" (or in-classroom, with minimal preparation) activities help kids get a true hands-on approach to understanding climate, seasons, the earth's rotation, and basic meteorology. The accompanying curriculum applies and expands the video's content, although it is geared primarily towards the younger end of the viewing age bracket, while the teacher's guide is aimed more at the older grades. Recommended. Other new titles in the A First Look series include: Magnets, The Sky Above and Plants. Aud: K, E. (E. Gieschen)
