Battle of Jumonville Glen. This "battle" was one of the most important ones because it was the battle that started the French and Indian War, which then lead to the American Revolution and the creation of the United States of America. The video explains how this battle happened from both the French and British viewpoints. An excellent video to show students the "fog of war" during a battle as well as cause and effect. (04:22)

Be aware of opening ad. Sitting Bull and Crazy Horse lead the Lakota to victory in the Battle of Little Big Horn and this is the aftermath of that victory. The five-minute video has good quotes and shows cause and effect. Some quotes are controversial.

This book about a young boy who loved the library ~ and the three librarians, who help him develop his potential every year he's in school. This book would be enjoyed by 1st through 4th grade. Very good for teaching reading and writing strategies, such as circular beginnings and endings, cause and effect, sequencing, main idea and detail ~ this book is a treasure trove! (08:37)

This short video goes into what the Dred Scot decision was about using animation. It is rather vague and does not offer a cause and effect insight that would help the students understand the implications of the case based on the time the decision was made.

You need to click on watch video button. The Panic of 1873
was caused by the failure of Jay Cooke's investment house, which funded a lot of the Union effort in the Civil war. During this time, many became deep in debt and unemployed. During this time, Chicago's People's Party and Socialist Party frequently got into disagreements. Also, the close election of Rutherford B. Hayes took place. This five minute video explains who Cooke's actions started to impact the nation and resulted in a depression. A good video that explains the cause and effect of the Panic. Has a script that follows the video.

Napoleon Bonaparte's invasion of Russia in 1812 is the centerpiece of this six-minute video and deals with its cause and effect. Napoleon Bonaparte had raised the largest army that Europe had ever witnessed and wielded it to conquer much of the European landmass. In 1812, Napoleon's army marched swiftly through Russia,
but couldn't live off the land due to the Russian army's scorched-earth tactics. Eventually, the French reached Moscow, furious to find it deserted and burned to the ground, forcing them to retreat the thousand miles back to France and face the harsh Russian winter. The march resulted in a huge loss of men and ultimately resulted in the destruction of his empire. The video also explains how scientists find evidence of these battles. (06:01)

This 3:44 video is an interview with a teacher about how Walden lived and what he wrote. Between 1845 and 1847, Henry David Thoreau decided to spend two years in a small cabin - located in the woods in Concord, Massachusetts, near Walden Pond - to see what it would be like to withdraw from the constant demands and "busyness" of daily life.
As he writes in Walden:
I went to the woods because I wished to live deliberately, to front only the essential facts of life, and see if I could not learn what it had to teach and not, when I came to die, discover that I had not lived. (Thoreau, Walden, Volume 1, page 143.) The lecture is too sophisticated for younger students and does not provide a cause and effect of Thoreau's work.
In this clip, Professor Richard H. Baker - a Transcendentalist scholar - gives an overview of Thoreau and the lessons he tried to learn when living in his Walden-Pond cabin (which no longer exists, in its original form).

How did an eighth-grader’s science fair project inspire a new way to
tackle rising levels of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere? Claire
Lackner’s father Klaus, a geophysicist at Columbia University, had a
brainstorm after he saw how Claire used an aquarium pump to capture carbon dioxide in the air. A decade later, Dr. Lackner is testing a product inspired by his daughter’s vision. This 12:46 long video tells of this story with the emphasis on what CO2 is what is its cause and effect. An easy to understand video.

This video reviews the history of the automobile. It offers good images and the impact of Henry Ford. It does not deal with Ford's political connections or the fact that he did not invent the assembly line. It does deal with how his company made vehicles more affordable and its impact of society. A good cause and effect essay topic. (04:16)

Beware of political ad that starts video. This is a glorified slide show. It moves very rapidly with little explanation of cause and effect. Touches on some geographical areas and so a map and wordwall are needed. This is a general overview video of 2:40. The ending is very weak and needs more explanation for students.
