NASA's Kids Science News Network program has produced 20 newsbreaks—60-second animations, activities, and resource links that present "science news you can use." Available in English and Spanish, the newsbreaks explore topics that naturally pique children's curiosity, from what causes day and night to why shadows grow and shrink. Teachers can incorporate newsbreaks into instruction by using them to introduce a concept or as a warm-up, or they can request copies of the scripts and have students perform the newsbreaks themselves.
