Mission: Penguin? Field Video Links

Share content though your learning management system

Each week, we'll post links to field videos on this page so you can push them to student devices or post to your learning management system without having to set up accounts or passwords for your students.

The internet is a wonderful way to explore the world, but kids need to be safe!  That's why we're sharing links for our videos via Video.link to support your distance learning this mission!  You can send parents here to collect the links or copy and paste them and share via the platform of your choice.  The videos are also visible by clicking on the video thumbnail.   To ensure kids' safety, we advise teacher and parents not to share this page directly with your young students if they are unsupervised.  Children should also be supervised if watching videos or livestreams directly on the site.  ​
