Dear Science Teachers,
Hope you’re well!
Looking for great resources that will help your students learn Science?
Then join the literally millions of teachers and students around the world who have used the Shedding Light series of videos, worksheets, and practical activities to make teaching and learning Science easier, more effective, and more enjoyable!!
· Each Shedding Light series (there are eight in all) covers an entire unit of work, but each program is a fully, self-contained lesson! They cover Chemistry, Light, Motion, Sun and Earth (Climate Science), Heat, Energy, Acids and Bases, and Electricity.
· Each program comes with an outstanding worksheet, many now in Google Doc format! Check them out here!!
· Each worksheet comes with answers!
Each video makes it easier for teachers to teach and easier for students to learn. The outstanding explanations, animations, and demonstrations will
· improve your students’ grades;
· drive positive engagement in Science and;
· allow all students to maximize their learning.
The worksheets are structured in sections that match the sections in each video. They
· promote critical-thinking skills;
· enhance literacy and numeracy and;
· provide a strong sense of accomplishment as students complete them.
Best of all, the Shedding Light videos are available for free right now on
Learn360, Films on Demand, SAFARI Montage, and ClickView.
The video resources and the worksheets can be used both in the classroom and at home! If a student is absent, he or she can still keep up with the rest of the class!!
So, if your school has one of these services, you can head straight there! However, if you don’t have these services, you can get hold of the programs from our website.
Full transcripts for each program are also on the Liacos Educational Media website, so students can use them as an online text book. Check them out. You will also find the worksheets on the website.
Follow the links below to preview each series. They are available for free right now on Learn360, Films on Demand, SAFARI Montage, and ClickView.

The 4-part Shedding Light on Acids and Bases series
They’ll get a great reaction…
Acids and bases play a huge role in every aspect of our lives. They can be found everywhere, from our farms to our kitchens and from our power stations to our industrial plants.
This series explains what acids and bases are and how the chemical reactions they undergo are a part of our everyday life.

The 5-part Shedding Light on Electricity series
The Shocking Truth…
The Shedding Light on Electricity series exposes the shocking truth about electricity. Yes, positively a bad pun to begin with, but we promise to conduct ourselves really well from now on. This series teaches students watts of stuff (sorry, couldn’t resist) about electricity including how it’s produced, how it’s used in our homes, how it’s controlled, and how we keep ourselves safe from nasty shocks. Currently the best video series available. Ohm my goodness, this series is without parallel.
