Episode 5: The Collision Zone: Asia by Bullfrog Films Price at time of review: $250.00 Bullfrog Films, Inc. Oley, PA 2010 ISBN: 9781937772322 Grade Level: 7-College

Reviewed by Coralee Smith Associate Professor Elementary Education and Reading This is one of five 52–minute episodes. Episode 5 focuses on the Earth’s surface and landscapes in Asia. The photography is breathtaking and the science content is accurate. The academic content is well beyond the elementary aged student, but could be used as an introduction. A Teacher's Guide is available online at http://www.bullfrogfilms.com/catalog/geo.html but must be printed by the user. The correlations to standards are Canadian, so that aspect would be left to the U.S. instructor. On the other hand, if you would like to see and hear about the collision Zone in Asia for 52 minutes, then get ready to be amazed with this visual guide. Review posted on 2/6/2013
