Professor Walter Lewin presents work and energy to his students at MIT. He covers basic calculations and explains where the formulas come from. Then he solves a problem in which a ball bearing has to roll through a loop. Using the law of conservation of energy, he explains how to determine if the ball will make it through the loop. The basic idea behind roller coasters (49:12).

This animated story features a boy named Billy who is obsessed with playing with video and other computer games. When his town experiences a brown out ( shut down of electrical power due to over consumption) his mother describes the importance of conserving energy. This selection could be used to teach about environmental concern and figurative language; the story contains many similes. ( 4:06)

This video segment from Interactive NOVA: "Earth" explores the history of plant biology. It takes the viewer from the earliest scientific hypotheses that plants ate dirt, to our present-day understanding of photosynthesis, the process by which plants use the sun's energy to convert carbon dioxide and water into carbohydrates, a storable form of chemical energy.
