Sinopse
A newly re-discovered classic, The Underseas Explorers is an animated educational cartoon that was first shown in 1961. A true collectors item, it has been proclaimed to be "ahead of its time." Owing to its inclusion of an "island boy" character similar to "Hadji," it has sometimes been referred to as an underwater version of "Johnny Quest." Onboard the tiny atomic submarine "Hydronaut," a small group of underwater adventurers set out to explore the oceans and circumnavigate the globe under the North Pole (the Arctic Cap). During their televised journey, they discover the original landing site of old pirates. Professor Scott meets undersea creatures including an unexpected underwater duel with an eight-legged octopus. The title has often been incorrectly referred to as: The Undersea Explorers, The Underwater Explorers, The Underwater Adventurers, Journey to the Bottom of the Sea and many others.
Neste suspense de ficção científica de Ray Harryhausen um polvo gigante radioativo comete o erro de atacar o submarino do capitão da marinha Pete Mathews (Kenneth Tobey) fazendo com que o bravo comandante persiga a criatura monstruosa por todo o oceano Pacífico antes que ele ataque outra pessoa. Enquanto os militares correm para criar uma arma que possa penetrar o cérebro do polvo mutante e destruí-lo de uma vez por todas, o monstro acaba descobrindo como sobreviver em terra, causando a maior confusão na ponte Golden Gate e depois no Embarcadero. Agora os moradores aterrorizados de São Francisco vão ter que lutar por suas vidas.
The Swedish 19th century engineer Salomon August Andrée sets out to become the first man on the north pole. His idea is to launch a polar expedition using a hydrogen balloon, together with two friends. The balloon, "The Eagle", takes off from Svalbard in 1897, but the three men are not heard of again.
An old explorer close to freezing in the Arctic re-lives the events that brought him there in the first place. He recalls his student days at Trinity College in Dublin when he studied under the enigmatic Professor Orit, the professor who was driven to madness by his obsessive pursuit of the unified theory. Convinced that the answer somehow lay in the relationship between the numbers two, three and five, Professor Orit's obsession started the journey which has led his former student to the top of the world.
Go on a word-search adventure and discover the clues to building words! A wild word-building adventure! When Mr. Websley is accidentally silenced by the Silent E Machine, Leap, Lily and Tad must journey through the Complex Word Complex to build the code words needed to return his voice. Guided only by the "Absent Professor Device," the kids learn how to solve the code and save the day. Humorous songs add to the fun and help teach the rules for advanced word-building.
In this video, children see how Tad and Lily use what they know about 2D shapes to learn about 3D shapes. Sharing food provides a meaningful context to introduce fractions as equal parts of a whole. Children also observe many different ways to measure things.
This educational film emphasizes the importance of good grooming and personal hygiene habits. Clothes should always appear clean and neat, and should be appropriate to the classroom setting.

Besides maintaining skin and body health, good grooming habits will help you "fit in" in various social situations, and may even help a gal attract a boyfriend!
