The Honey Bee
Untiringly, the honey bees fly from flower to flower, constantly in search of pollen and sweet nectar. These busy workers live together in a complex social system an insight into which is provided by this film. In vivid pictures, it describes the life of the honey bee in the bee colony and deals with the inhabi- tants of the beehive and their strict division of labour. It shows the worker bees foraging for food and communicating with each other in their characteristic way. The second part of the film illustrates how a new bee colony is formed and describes the course of a bee‘s year from the new queen to the mating flight and the brood cells and finally to the expulsion of the drones in the „slaughter of the drones“. The DVD and the didactically arranged worksheets are per- fectly suited for the classroom both as an introduction to the topic and as a tool for the pupils when working individually or preparing projects.

Bats
Bats are the only mammals that can fly actively. In mythology they represent the dark element and were the inspiration behind the invention of vampire stories. On account of their nocturnal way of life and their dark appearance, they are considered scary by many people. But the nocturnal hunters are by no means keen on human blood. They mainly hunt insects, thus assuming an important role as natural pest controllers.

Christian Feasts
People like to celebrate – music, laughing, dancing, being sociable, giving and receiving presents. All this is part of a good celebration. Apart from private festivities such as birthdays or weddings, there are also constantly recurring feasts and holidays in the circle of the seasons. Some are celebrated only regionally, others nationwide or worldwide. It is often forgotten that originally they had a Christian background. Thanksgiving, a parish fair or church mass turned into a fun fair and eventually simply a public festival in many places. Ascension Day, Whitsun or Easter are mostly wonderful occasions for just relaxing and long weekend getaways. But to Christians they have yet another, deeper meaning. They can be used for contemplation, commemoration, for example of the life of Jesus Christ, and for common celebration with other believers in church services.

Its landscape structure is highly diverse and offers such different nature areas as the Odenwald, the Spessart, the Upper Rhine Plain, the Black Forest and the Swabian Jura. Baden-Wuerttemberg, formerly divided into Baden and Wuerttemberg, has a long and turbulent history, which can be traced far back into the past. The federal state itself is not very old, it is the youngest federal state in Germany. Baden-Wuerttemberg counts among the economically strongest and most competitive regions of Europe. It is the exporting country number one among the federal states and is considered the most innovative region of the EU as far as high technology, research and development are concerned. Of particular interest for tourism are Baden-Wuerttemberg traditions, among them the typical Black Forest houses and the costumes with their ”Bollenhut“ hats. Together with the extensive additional material the DVD is ideally suited for use in the classroom.

Democracy in Germany
Constantly we come across politics in our daily lives, we just do not realise it all the time! Politics does not always take place in full public view but also starts in small settings already, for example at school. The political system in Germany is based on the principles of democracy. That means there are free elections in Germany, an independent parliament and a separation of powers that act independently of each other.
