McCulloch v. Maryland Video I would use this resource above the others because my 6th graders can relate to the beginning when the video discussed a tough economy. We discuss this through each of our units in World Geography, therefore it would be great to connect their learning to their homeland and our history. Finally, I thought the last segment was great when the interviewee discussed how President Lincoln's famous quote was taken from John Marshall's speech. Above all I would use this video because I found the language in the essays to be way above my 6th graders in both links and the other video would have lost their interest within the first minute.

2 links for future use: Climate Change in Africa I would use the above link to help connect the previous lesson on the Earth's tilt and thematic climate maps to the future of Earth's every changing climate while studying our Africa unit.

Chernobyl Nuclear Explosion I am always trying to answer questions surrounding the Chernobyl explosion when we study the trans-boundary pollution in Europe. I hope this short video and essay will help my students better understand how the meltdown occurred and what type of safety precautions the United States has in place.
