It’s That Time Again…

Like I do practically every time Daylight Saving Time begins or ends, I have actually congregated a handful of brief video explanations about why we have Daylight Saving Time. See and take a look if there is one that can assist you describe Daylight Saving Time to your students..
National Geographic has 2 videos entitled Daylight Saving Time 101. The very first one, released in 2015, is a bit more upbeat than the 2nd one that was released in 2019. Both versions are embedded below..

If it isnt as concise as the videos above, CGP Greys video description of Daylight Saving Time is still a good one even.

The Telegraph has a 90 2nd description of Daylight Saving Time. The video doesnt have any narrative so it can be watched without sound.

Daytime Saving Time ends today for much of my pals in Europe and it ends next Sunday for those people in North American states and provinces that observe Daylight Saving Time. As somebody who gets up early and lives in a northern state, I welcome the change as Ill see the sun an hour earlier. And ideally, my kids will make the most of the “extra” hour of time for sleeping next Saturday night.

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.
