When I am away from class for a conference or when we have a snow day, I will often post my lessons to YouTube. You can find my YouTube channel here: http://www.youtube.com/user/fhsmath. Here's the video I currently have available for Multivariable Calc:
VC 1.09: Plotting Circles and Ellipses Parametrically
Literacy Sheet Surveys

Finite Simple Group of Order Two (I am the videographer in this!)
Map of Wind Patterns in the USA (this might remind you of a vector field!)
I made a "Planet Mapper" Mathematica demonstration, which you are welcome to fiddle with if you are interested (warning: large file). It projects a cylindrical map of a planet onto a sphere so that you can manipulate it and revolve it like a globe. Currently, you can do this with the Earth, Moon, Sun, Mars, Venus, Jupiter, and Neptune. Hopefully this inspires you to think about our class project in May!
