The Singing Revolution - Still Available!


We had a glitch on our website starting yesterday afternoon that was not allowing teachers to order The Singing Revolution.  We still have copies of this DVD available and the problem has now been fixed.  We apologize for any inconvenience this may have caused.

Pups of Liberty: The Boston Tea-Bone Party


We've just released our newest DVD, Pups of Liberty: The Boston Tea-Bone Party.

This is our first DVD specifically designed for grades K-6.  It is an animated film which introduces students to the people, places, ideas, and events that led to the founding of the United States of America.  The Boston Tea-Bone Party tells the story of the founding of the Sons of Liberty and the Boston Tea Party, but with the real people of history portrayed by cats and dogs.

Here's a clip:


Along with this release, we've also created a new section for our website called izzitKIDS.  Within this section are interactive features for students to learn more about the story and how the film was made.  Check it out here.

And don't forget to go order your copy of Pups of Liberty: The Boston Tea-Bone Party!

New Website Features

If you haven't already done so, make sure you check out the new features at izzit.org!  We are very excited this year to have a completely revamped Educational Videos page which allows teachers to search for DVDs by Subject.


We also now have Common Core Standards on our Standard Alignment page, a Student Zone, for students of izzitPLUS members to access Current Events, games, and more, and, of course, this News page.  

Check out our "What's New" section to see all the new features.  And don't forget to order your Free Annual Video while you're there!
