| Describe the educational and informational objective of the program and how it meets the definition of Core Programming. | The content and range of knowledge delivered by the pictures contained in "Animal Atlas Classics" is enough to communicate the diversity of nature from the clear, colorful footage ranges to insects to the higher mammals. Some of the photography is beautifully arresting in its presentation. The light attitude of the narration is friendly, casually informative and yet manages to deliver information in an appropriate level of vocabulary for early teens. It clearly presumes a level of knowledge that matches that age range. It meets the challenge of engaging the curiosity of the target age range without pandering and without filtering information. The editing, music, and content would hold the eye and ear while the mind is engaged. "Animal Atlas Classics" maintains the series' connection with educational standards consistent with nationally published curriculum goals in the natural sciences. This series moves viewers through the taxonomy of the animal kingdom with attention to defining characteristics and references to the habitat and differentiation of the animal kingdom complement the overview of the components of biological life in the visible world. The program is regularly scheduled and airs between the hours of 7:00 am and 10:00 pm. The program is 30 minutes in length, and is identified as an educational and informational show, targeted to teens 13 to 16 years old, at the beginning and through each broadcast; as well as in listings provided to publishers of program guides. |

| Describe the educational and informational objective of the program and how it meets the definition of Core Programming. | The content and range of knowledge delivered by the pictures contained in "Animal Atlas Classics" is enough to communicate the diversity of nature from the clear, colorful footage ranges to insects to the higher mammals. Some of the photography is beautifully arresting in its presentation. The light attitude of the narration is friendly, casually informative and yet manages to deliver information in an appropriate level of vocabulary for early teens. It clearly presumes a level of knowledge that matches that age range. It meets the challenge of engaging the curiosity of the target age range without pandering and without filtering information. The editing, music, and content would hold the eye and ear while the mind is engaged. "Animal Atlas Classics" maintains the series' connection with educational standards consistent with nationally published curriculum goals in the natural sciences. This series moves viewers through the taxonomy of the animal kingdom with attention to defining characteristics and references to the habitat and differentiation of the animal kingdom complement the overview of the components of biological life in the visible world. The program will be regularly scheduled and will air between the hours of 7:00 am and 10:00 pm. The program will be 30 minutes in length, and will be identified as an educational and informational show, targeted to teens 13 to 16 years old, at the beginning and through each broadcast; as well as in listings provided to publishers of program guides. |
