Joe and his family head to the mountains on a ski adventure. When they arrive, Joe doesn’t pay any attention to the rules at the ski resort, or the hotel pool! He soon ends up in hot water, and once again his poor family suffers the consequences...

Annette is in a park in beautiful Oxford, England today, and she wants to introduce us to the sport, or hobby, of slacklining. There’s a lot of skill involved, but Annette has mastered it, and she shows us how it’s done!

For the final days of Sigrid's visit to the New York area, she leaves the rocky North Shore and goes south to a place she knows very well from her childhood—the beach! It's a nice place to visit even in the cooler weather.

In part one, we learned how to create an assignment. In this second part, we learn how to locate previous assignments and copy them for use with a new class.

We're back on Long Island, exploring the North Shore with an outing to a wildlife refuge on one of the necks, or small peninsulas that jut into the Long Island Sound, the body of water separating Long Island from Connecticut.

This last part about the D&R canal talks about the special bridges that were needed to cross the canal and who had to take care of them. And if you're wondering if the canal is still in use, Sigrid answers that question. There's a special tribute at the end of the video for which you might want this link.

What makes canals so special? In part 2, we explore locks. Locks are like elevators for barges and boats!

After exploring the five boroughs of New York City, we move on to Princeton, New Jersey, where Sigrid gets curious about a canal built in the early 19th century.

In part 2 about the borough of Manhattan, Sigrid completes her overview of all 5 boroughs of New York City. She talks about some nicknames for New York City, including "the Big Apple."

We've finally made it to Manhattan, the smallest but most densely populated borough. When we think of New York City, Manhattan is more often than not what comes to mind. This is part 1.

Taking animals for inspiration, Annette focuses on characteristics and techniques that will bring success when it comes to sitting an English examination—in particular the TOEFL (Test Of English as a Foreign Language) exam, one of the best-known standardized English language tests.

Annette welcomes us aboard her narrowboat home for a taste of a uniquely peaceful lifestyle that consists of navigating canals in the heart of the beautiful English countryside.

It's time to have a look at Staten Island, the 4th borough out of 5. It looks closer to New Jersey than to the rest of New York City and has some other peculiarities.

To get from eastern Long Island to the city, travelers and commuters have to go through Queens, so this borough naturally became a very important transit hub, with Jamaica at its center. It also became crisscrossed with many expressways for vehicles.

Having explored the Bronx and Brooklyn, Sigrid now tells us all about Queens, which is geographically speaking the largest of the 5 boroughs of New York City.
