Ancient and Modern Olympic Games - Middle School - Social Studies
"This WebQuest is dedicated to the ancient Olympic games and the expected revival of Olympic spirit in Athens at 2004 ...
Ancient Olympic Games were originated in Greece and were held from 776 B.C. to A.D. 393. The modern Olympic Games began in 1896 (thanks to French aristocrat Baron Pierre de Coubertin) when organizers revived them to encourage world peace and friendship and to promote healthy sporting competition for the youth of the world."

He looks quite happy to see you...because he's hungry! If you don't want to be the main course at dinner, you better figure out a way to convince "Sharky" that you're not on the menu!"

Boil, Boil, Toil and Trouble: The International Boiling Point Project Middle School Science
We have people all over the world boiling water! In the past we've had climbers on Mt. Everest, school children in La Paz, Bolivia and college professors in Cheyenne, Wyoming all participating in the project. The purpose of this project is to discover which factor in the experiment (room temperature, elevation, volume of water, or heating device) has the greatest influence on boiling point. Anyone can participate in this year's project. All you have to do is boil a bit of water, record a bit of information, and send it along to us to include in the database of results. Then, students can analyze all of the data to reach an answer to the question: What causes a pot of water to boil? It's that simple!
