I often use videos and video clips to teach new concepts and reinforce previously taught concepts. Students are accustom to fast moving visual and audio and the video clips suit their needs. I also try to use songs so that my students , second language learners, have the lyrics to go with the visuals.

Today I did a goggle video search. Most of the relevant videos were on you tube or teacher tube. I have mostly used brainpop and discovery education videos/clips in the classroom. These sites don't give as many choices and even though all of the videos don't fit perfectly, it saves a lot of time.
