It's a Blue, Blue, Blue, Blue World

Jonathan Bird's Blue World

Use your classroom computer to explore the ocean with Emmy award-winning underwater cinematographer and naturalist Jonathan Bird.

Jonathan Bird's Blue World is an educational "magazine style" underwater adventure series with short, 7–10 minute segments, each containing a complete story with an eduational component. Segments include stories about marine animals, research and researchers, underwater exploration, and recent discoveries.

Current episodes explore the biology and behavior of blue sharks; the amazing sonar abilities and social lives of sperm whales; the intelligence and playful creativity of wild dolphins; the gentle "sea cow"—the manatee (a relative of the elephant!); the pelagic thresher shark, one of the rarest sharks in the wild; as well as others.

Each segment includes a downloadable study guide for teachers.
