 NOAA Ocean Explorer YouTube
"Looking for ways to pull students into class on time and immediately submerge their minds into the topic of the day? Check out the Ocean Explorer YouTube videos. If, when my students come in, I have a video playing that pertains to our lessons for the day, they won't complain about having to reflect on what they're seeing and they'll never be late again! The footage on these is great!"
