Product Description
Just the Facts: It’s About Time expands the concept of time into the larger units of years, decades, centuries, and eras. The video explains the meaning of generations and ancestors and illustrates where the viewer fits into the family history. It explores the concept of timelines as a way to measure years, decades, and centuries. A discussion of how we number centuries follows, with reference to such historic events as Columbus’ discovery of America, astronauts landing on the moon, and the turn of the century in 2001. The concepts of C.E. (A.D.) and B.C.E. (B.C.) are also introduced in this informative program that will enhance understanding of historic time.
Time in Your World explores time as it relates to our everyday lives–time to get up, time for school, lunchtime, bedtime, daytime, nighttime. The program explains how clock hands measure time in hours, minutes, and seconds and how to tell time. The video also illustrates the difference between analog and digital clocks and explains the concept of a.m. and p.m. The program then discusses how calendars measure time in days, weeks, months, and years and explains the relationship between the passage of time marked by clocks and the time units measured by calendars. The concept of how Earth’s rotation around the sun creates day and night is presented. Finally, the program explains the concepts of past, present, and future to help children understand time in their world.
