One of my favorite ways to cover different teach points, when there are so many to cover, is using short videos or video clips.
Here are a few links for some of my favorite videos you can use in February:
President's Day:
A cool morphing video of all of our presidents {think Michael Jackson's Black or White video}. Your students will love it!
A video version of Duck for President
Dental Health:
Dudley Visits the Dentist is perfect for Dental Health. It's a cartoon, so it's definitely more appealing for the littles but my third graders sure didn't mind it when I shared it years ago!
Valentine's Day:
My favorite, favorite, favorite Valentine's Day book is Somebody Loves You, Mr. Hatch. You can find it read online by Hector Elizando here.
I also have a resource to go with it, if you want to check it out here.
Black History Month:
There are so many important people and so many important events to cover for Black History education, that I don't really use videos. I like to dive into books and TpT resources, but here are a few short clips that I really liked:
This super-short video about Rosa Parks that really helps students relate to how important she was, and how the choices she made effected their lives in a very major way.
Another video in the same vain as the Rosa Parks video, covering many important figures. A great discussion starter.
I hope these videos will help you in your classroom in February! Good luck getting it all in :)

You should link this up with a linky I found called "Movie Clip Monday!" I found it today because I follow the blog on Blog Lovin'. I love the clips you posted about! If you go to my blog there's a link to link up. :)
