[LM_NET] HIT: World Religions Video for Middle School

[Lisa Weinstein <lisa.t.weinstein@GMAIL.COM>]

Thank you to those who responded to my request for videos on World
Religions appropriate for middle school students.  Here are the
responses I received:

1.  I have some programs in my library that work for middle school. You can
get them at Discovery Education(they were produced by United Learning,
which used to produce fabulous content-Discovery bought the company.

bjectId=&go.x=0&go.y=0

2.  Another series that I have(for middle school) is from Schlessinger
Media(which is distributed by Library Video Company. The series is
called "Religions of the World".

Hello,

 My social studies teachers requested a video on World Religions.
 Anyone have one video, or a series of videos, they would highly
 recommend for middle school?

 Thanks,
