    This series is an incredible look at the impact that Earth's revolution has on our daily experience at the surface. There were so many different places and aspects that students were interested and sparked beyond what I could generate in my classroom alone. It lead to good discussions and even better questions which led to a deeper research and some application to our experiences. They are long, but targeting specific areas based on your student population could be quite effective.
