Wildest Weather in the Solar System

March 8-August 29

In this spectacular National Geographic film, your students will witness the most powerful and mysterious weather phenomena in our solar system — from a relentless hurricane that's raged on Jupiter for more than 400 years, to the electrical storms of Saturn's "Storm Alley," where lightning strikes are 100 times more powerful than those on Earth. With captivating computer-generated imagery to set the stage, students will travel alongside a fictitious planetary spacecraft whose journey begins at the sun and continues to the outer reaches of our solar system.

Meerkats

January 7-May 24

Cute and cuddly? Yes, but on the harsh plains of southern Africa, meerkats must be tough and tenacious in order to survive. This stunningly realistic 3-D film by National Geographic follows the adventures and struggles of a meerkat matriarch and her brood as they cope with life in the Kalahari Desert. Together, they must endure turf wars from rival families, attacks from vicious predators — and even some family turmoil of their own. And through it all, the survival of this clan hinges on the meerkat golden rule: Stick together, and keep calling.
