Amazing Animals
6 episodes
Six one- to two-minute animal profiles from National Geographic Kids sit in the catalog: beetle, cobra, crocodile, gentoo penguin, polar bear, and wildebeest. Each clip does one job. It names the animal's habitat, then points at the body parts and behaviors that let it live there. Thick fur and huge paws on Arctic ice. Stiff flippers that let a penguin fly underwater. A hood a cobra spreads as a warning. Short enough to open a unit on adaptation or structure and function, or to hand a K-5 class a shared example before students go research an animal of their own.
