Mixed reviews. "Some parts were good, other parts I wasn't interested in. Overall, it was good for leaning about science." "Don't think I'd watch it again unless I was studying for a test." "It helped to see the illustrations of things like the Mohs scale, planets and other things." "I need to learn more about a lot of things such as space and volcanoes." "I'd watch it again." "It was not too appealing but was really engaging and helps you to learn about science."
This animated science series tackles a wide range of topics and does a pretty good job of explaining them. Useful for science studies by home schoolers as well as classroom supplement. It moves very quickly and doesn't explore every topic thoroughly which is why we recommend it as a supplement rather than a core learning video. One adult jurors said, "I believe this is one of the best educational tools I have seen. All teachers, or at least science teachers, need this DVD. They could spend more time on projects and not have to worry about making the tests."
