Home
Everyone of us has a home. We primarily associate home with our families, which give us a sense of comfort and security. We have our home town where we were born, but what exactly is home? According to the encyclopaedia, home means all the conditions under which someone grows up. This DVD introduces all aspects of the topic of “home” – in a way easily understandable for children. Folk songs as well as films and novels with a regional background are examined closely. The relation between home and identity is explained. Home can take many forms due to different nationalities with their different languages, customs and traditions. However, despite all our cultural differences and ways of life, when seen from a distance, we all share the same home – our planet earth!

Schokolade
Schokolade – die süße Versuchung. Kaum einer, der dieser zart schmelzenden Köstlichkeit widerstehen kann. Knapp neun Kilo des leckeren kakaohaltigen Genussmittels gönnte sich der Deutsche 2005 im Durchschnitt. Das liegt nicht nur am guten Geschmack: Schokolade hat auch eine besondere Wirkung auf Körper und Geist. Einige ihrer Inhaltsstoffe sind zum Beispiel gut gegen Bluthochdruck oder Depressionen. "Schau dich schlau!" erklärt, wie Schokolade genau wirkt. Ihren Ursprung hat Schokolade in Südamerika, genossen wurde sie dort als die Sinne erregendes Getränk. Bis zum heutigen Tag werden in Äquatorländern Kakaofrüchte per Hand geerntet, indem sie mit Macheten von den bis zu 15 Meter hohen Bäumen geschlagen werden. Mit den spanischen Eroberern kam der Kakao nach Europa, doch erst im Jahre 1848 gab es Schokolade in Form fester Tafeln. Heute reicht die gute alte Milchschokolade nicht mehr aus – immer ungewöhnlichere Kreationen kommen auf den Markt, darunter gewagte Kombinationen mit Paprika, Sellerie oder sogar Bergkäse. "Schau dich schlau!" zeigt den Weg der Kakaobohne von der Plantage bis in die Schokoladentafel. Außerdem haben sich Joey Grit Winkler und Fero Andersen auf der Internationalen Süßwarenmesse (ISM) in Köln umgeschaut und zeigen die neuesten Trends und die skurrilsten Zutaten!

Autumn
Autumn is a transitional period in which the days grow shorter and temperatures get colder. There are lots of different fruits which serve as food for the animals on trees and bushes in the forest and the park. It is the season when people harvest fruits and vegetables in their gardens. In the film, we are shown how nature changes in autumn. The pupils learn why the leaves turn orange and yellow and eventually fall off the trees. In a way that is easy to understand they are told how plants and animals prepare for the coming winter. Various animals are introduced that are storing up winter supplies and looking for a place for hibernating. In addition, the film shows how the harvested fruit can be used for cooking or crafting. The most important festivals – the harvest festival, Halloween and Saint Martin’s festival – are explained. Besides didactic and methodical considerations, also a wealth of most varied suggestions is available in the accompanying material indicating how to work on this topic in a multifaceted and holistic way and how to rediscover it.

Dinosaurs
Dinosaurs lived on our Earth about 160 million years ago. There are several theories as to why they became extinct about 65 million years ago but the fascination with these creatures is still there. We can look at dinosaurs in dinosaur parks. People have reconstructed dinosaurs based on their ideas of what they might have looked like. In an age appropriate way the following questions are addressed in the film: When did dinosaurs live? What did the Earth look like at the time of the dinosaurs? How did dinosaurs live? Were dinosaurs clever? How do we know about dinosaurs? Where did the dinosaurs get their funny names from? Why did the dinosaurs become extinct? A special highlight is the chapter “Dinos Present Themselves“. A selection of dinosaurs, speaking in different voices, convey information on the various species to the children. Together with the extensive accompanying material the DVD is ideally suited for project work in the elementary sector.
