What we are watching

This week we are watching the BBC program Blue Planet narrated by David Attenborough. This DVD series is a good follow up program to reinforce a familiarity with the creatures of the deep that Z began with the IMAX movie, Deep Sea , that we saw at the California ScienCenter this weekend.

So far (we are into the second episode) this series is not as good as The Life of Mammals series, also narrated by Attenborough.

I am expecting Before the Dinosaurs to arrive from Netflix today and we will link these all together with a study on arthropods - lobsters, crabs, scorpions, spiders and other insects. So it would make sense to allow get a short program on insects to watch. Or maybe as Magic School Bus book.
