Video Demonstrations

Lately, I've been making videos of my demonstrations before class so that I know my instruction is at its best. I've been trying to model my thinking with my words while I teach, which isn't always easy. I think this demo has been pretty popular with the kids (especially since there's a special cameo by Mr. G about halfway through).
