A fun collection. Plus I always like looking at what else is on the page

What a great resource to supplement science teaching some 100 years ago! Economical, too, with the Indianapolis Times priced at two cents!
Wonderful and engaging lesson activity

My colleagues post incredibly fine resources and ideas....the caliber of the suggestions and resources make me feel that I take a lot from it. It's a takeaway. And I hope that I can give back as much as I get.
