It’s That Time Again…

CGP Greys video explanation of Daylight Saving Time is still a great one even if it isnt as succinct as the videos above.

TED-Ed has 2 lessons that arent specifically about Daylight Saving Time but are associated to the topic. The History of Keeping Time discusses sundials, hourglasses, and the development of timezones.

The Telegraph has a 90 second explanation of Daylight Saving Time. The video doesnt have any narrative so it can be viewed without sound.

Like I do almost each time Daylight Saving Time ends or starts, I have actually gathered together a handful of short video explanations about why we have Daylight Saving Time. See and take an appearance if there is one that can help you describe Daylight Saving Time to your students..
National Geographic has two videos entitled Daylight Saving Time 101. The very first one, published in 2015, is a bit more upbeat than the 2nd one that was released in 2019. Both variations are embedded below..

Daylight Saving Time ends today for a lot of my good friends in Europe and it ends next Sunday for those of us in North American states and provinces that observe Daylight Saving Time. As someone who gets up early and resides in a northern state, I welcome the modification as Ill see the sun an hour earlier. And hopefully, my kids will make the most of the “additional” hour of time for sleeping next Saturday night.
