A free video and PDF poster based on the Alderney Lighthouse on the British Channel Islands. The lighthouse was built after a ship called the SS Liverpool wrecked in bad weather.

Have you ever wondered why we send Christmas cards, or why not every country sends cards? When was the first card sent? Who sent the first Christmas Card? How many Christmas cards are sent each year? In this video I'll answer some of these questions as I explore the history of the Christmas card. This session is based on a video (History of the Christmas Card | Who Sent the First Card) with real life explorer and Fellow of the Royal Geographical Society Sarah Weldon.

A small collection of photos of William Wordsworth's former home in the village of Rydal in the Lake District, Cumbria, England and the church where he is buried in Grasmere. William Wordsworth was a famous poet who lived between 1770-1880. (Wikipedia: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/William_Wordsworth). For more photos of Rydal and Rydal Water check out my Rydal photo collection. I wandered lonely as a cloud That floats on high o'er vales and hills, When all at once I saw a crowd, A host, of golden daffodils; Beside the lake, beneath the trees, Fluttering and dancing in the breeze. Continuous as the stars that shine And twinkle on the milky way, They stretched in never-ending line Along the margin of a bay: Ten thousand saw I at a glance, Tossing their heads in sprightly dance. The waves beside them danced; but they Out-did the sparkling waves in glee: A poet could not but be gay, In such a jocund company: I gazed—and gazed—but little thought What wealth the show to me had brought: For oft, when on my couch I lie In vacant or in pensive mood, They flash upon that inward eye Which is the bliss of solitude; And then my heart with pleasure fills, And dances with the daffodils.

A fun but educational look at the important question of ‘do fish fart’. This is a free PDF document, and a YouTube video. A great resource for World Oceans Day, and for exploring topics such as gas exchange, oceans, the human body (why we fart), communication, species, herring fish, and people who use the sea for transport. Could also be used for students with English as a foreign language, or for homeschooling.
