Benjamin Franklin: Scientist/Inventor

************

Social Studies

Students need to know information on local, state, and national governments. This video is the inauguration of our mayor, Annise Parker.

Other videos that can be used are of the Texas Governor and of the U.S. President. This will allow students to be able to associate a face with the name...

I located the Benjamin Franklin photo on Picasa Web Albums; I found the Benjamin Franklin video using Google videos even though the name "Discovery Education" appears on the segment; I located the CNN video of Annise Parker via Blinkx. In order to use it in the classroom, I would pass it through snipsnip.it in order to reduce the size of the video and only show what's necessary.
