I recently re-subscribed to Netflix and did some thorough searching for documentaries and education films that fit in with our areas of study this year. I wanted to share what I found and added to my queue:

Early American History:
http://www.netflix.com/Movie/The_Mayflower_Pilgrims/70024934?trkid=226871
http://www.netflix.com/Movie/Colonial_House_Disc_1/70000588?trkid=226871
http://www.netflix.com/Movie/Just_the_Facts_America_s_Explorers_and_Pioneers/70025517?trkid=226871
http://www.netflix.com/Movie/Desperate_Crossing_The_Untold_Story_of_the_Mayflower/70062850?trkid=226871
http://www.netflix.com/Movie/Faith_of_Our_Fathers/70121895?trkid=226871
http://www.netflix.com/Movie/Colonial_Days_Video_Quiz/70031221?trkid=226872

Science:
http://www.netflix.com/Movie/The_Privileged_Planet/70025935?trkid=226871
http://www.netflix.com/Movie/Getting_Ahead_Primary_Science_Disc_1/70054480?trkid=226871
http://www.netflix.com/Movie/Incredible_Creatures_That_Defy_Evolution_Vol._1/70030308?trkid=226871

Art/Music:
http://www.netflix.com/Movie/The_Great_Artists_Disc_1/70036768?trkid=226871
http://www.netflix.com/Movie/Famous_Composers_Johann_Sebastian_Bach/70047684?trkid=226871 (they have a whole series of these on famous artists to choose from!

Of course, I will be pre-screening all of these before watching them with the kids. Some of them I am really excited about! I will update as we get them to share any good/bad things about my choices.

Have any good ones to add?

Thanks for the list! We have been driving to Blockbuster for years and finally a few weeks ago we made the Netflix switch! So far I love it!

We are also doing the Masters in art and we really liked this one on Monet. There is a book out by the same name.
