Salamanders and Lizards/ Tad the Frog/ Beginning Responsibility: Rules Are For Gorillas Too (3 films)

1) Students in a classroom relate lizards (in this case, chameleons) to prehistoric dinosaurs and to present-day marine iguanas; learn through simulation the care, feeding, and breeding of lizards and salamanders (two cold-blooded species); and observe an animated sequence on dinosaurs.
(outdated theory on dinosaurs)

2) Boys on marshland; collect swampy water in jar; show dad who’s raking leaves; pour contents of jar into fish tank; CU of tadpole; swims around; tadpole grows legs; whole family looks on; kid with funky baseball cap; frog with tail; numerous frogs in tank; frog eats crickets; CU of frog in palm of hand; puts frog in jar; release frog back into pond; huge toad, bullfrog.

3) If you were a curious gorilla who slipped away from the zoo to see what it was like to be a person, you’d quickly find that people follow rules. Whether on the street or playground, at school or home, rules keep you safe, help you play games, help people get along.
