After Life: The Strange Cycle of Decay
This video explains decomposition, one of nature's most important processes. For two months in the summer of 2011, a glass box containing food laid out from a typical kitchen and garden for a family of four was left to rot in full public view within Edinburgh Zoo. In this resulting documentary, presenter Dr. George McGavin and his team use time-lapse cameras and 3-D photography to capture the way in which moulds, microbes and insects are able to break down our everyday things and allow new life to emerge from old. The film reveals the incredible science of taphonomy, discovering what happens to organic matter as it starts to decompose. Whole new ecosystems of life invade, each more complex than you would ever expect. The micro-organisms involved in turning milk sour, lactobacillus, are highlighted; in addition to pseudomonas, micro-organisms that make meat smell; and botrytis cinerea, those that make fruit and vegetables go velvety grey.
Microbiology gives us insight into the part played by bacteria, yeasts and fungi. Biochemistry reveals how the chemical processes in living organisms cause change. Entymology reveals the vital role of insects in the great cycle of decay. The video also explores the incredible science behind preservation, from new food packaging and chemical additives to UV radiation and osmotic pressures.

Frozen Planet: On Thin Ice
In this program, David Attenborough journeys to both polar regions to investigate what rising temperatures will mean for the people and wildlife that live there and for the rest of the planet. Sir David starts out at the North Pole, standing on sea ice several meters thick, but which scientists predict could be open-ocean within the next few decades. The Arctic has been warming at twice the global average so Sir David heads out with a Norwegian team to see what this means for polar bears. He comes face to face with a tranquilized female and discovers that mothers and cubs are going hungry as the sea ice on which they hunt disappears. In Canada, Inuit hunters have seen with their own eyes what scientists have seen from space - the Arctic Ocean has lost 30% of its summer ice cover over the last 30 years. For some, the melting sea ice will allow access to trillions of dollar worth of oil, gas and minerals. For the rest of us, it means the planet will get warmer as sea ice is important to reflect back the sun's energy. Next Sir David travels to see what's happening to the ice on land: in Greenland, we follow intrepid ice scientists as they study giant waterfalls of meltwater, which are accelerating iceberg calving events, and ultimately leading to a rise in global sea level.
Temperatures have also risen in the Antarctic and Sir David returns to glaciers photographed by the Shackleton expedition and reveals a dramatic retreat over the past century. It's not just the ice that is changing - ice-loving adelie penguins are disappearing, and more temperate gentoo penguins are moving in. Finally, we see the first ever images of the largest recent natural event on our planet - the break up of the Wilkins Ice Shelf, an ice sheet the size of Jamaica, which shattered into hundreds of icebergs in 2009.

Gulf Stream and the Next Ice Age
Could Dublin's climate ever resemble that of Spitzberg in the Arctic Ocean or could London one day be as cold as Siberia? Is there an "Achilles' Heel" in Europe's climate? Would we face a catastrophe if the warm, strong currents of the Gulf Stream stopped flowing? Gulf Stream and the Next Ice Age is an odyssey that takes us from Europe to America in search of an answer to these questions. In France, Scotland and Norway, we take a look at how Europe's coastal population depends on the Gulf Stream. Through the use of computerized animation and explanations from specialists from Columbia University's French Polar Research Centre in the Greenland Sea, we get a clear understanding of what would happen if the Gulf Stream ceased to influence the climate in Northern Europe.

Science for English Language Learners
Science for English Language Learners is designed to assist teachers to implement inquiry-based science while increasing learning opportunities for English Language Learners (ELL). The book provides strategies for planning, teaching, assessing and extending learning. While the book is specifically designed for ELL students, many of the strategies can benefit all students in the classroom. Included in the book are lesson plans which include standards and objectives, background, materials, activities and a summary. Depending upon the grade level, charts and diagrams are also included in the lesson plan. The lesson plans provided will need to be adapted to address the Saskatchewan science curriculum outcomes.
The authors also provide educators with a sense of how it will look when strategies are incorporated for teaching English Language Learners in the classroom. If an educator is unfamiliar with English Language Learners, this book provides strategies for working with ELL students, how a second language is learned and connecting with families. Strategies to incorporate into daily teaching are discussed and while this is a science-related book, these strategies could be implemented in any area of teaching.

The Vanishing Ice
The gradual warming of our planet - an amount 1-4 degrees - is causing our glaciers and ice caps to melt at an unprecedented rate. This video explores the function of our glaciers and provides a regional, national and international picture of fresh water supplies. Interviews with many of the world's specialists on water, including activists, scientists and writers are interspersed with footage from deep within crevasses and high above ice fields. They all agree that the world is facing a crisis on the issue of fresh water scarcity. As fresh water availability declines and water supplies are privatized, water may be unavailable to 2/3 of the world's population. This video brings to the viewer's attention how this issue will certainly impact each of us, how vital it is to protect our fresh water supplies now and how Canada can take a leading role as the country with the greatest wealth of fresh water on earth.
