Marshmallow

I found a very good internet article PFIT BLOG posted an article ‘’ Need to Lose Weight? Eat Like it’s 1950’’ outlining the fact of what it was like during the 50’s era and how a ‘’normal’’ family ate dinner every day in an average household. Meals in the 1950’s were much simpler, easy and eating outside of the household was a huge big deal in the family. Eating out once a week was like hitting the lottery for most families. 50 years ago having a soda was only about once a week, and know we are…

Hot, melting cheesy lava dripping down my chin and hanging in strings towards my hands where a slice of pizza laden with black olives, mushrooms and shrimp tempts me to ignore the molten burning and take a bite anyway. I have gone to a nearly extinct pizza parlor of days gone by.

Big Idea: 1 Making connections during lessons in any subject are a huge benefactor for students of all ages, but especially beneficial to those of a younger age. There are many different ways you can make connections throughout lesson plans. It may be just comparing a situation to a student’s life, or it may be allowing the students to identify with your topic of interest by role-playing with them.

I couldn’t breath. I felt I’m in sauna. I was so shocked. This is what I felt when I went out at the airport at Hanoi, Vietnam. It was so hot and humid that I couldn’t breath at all. I thought I couldn’t be shocked than now ever in my life. However, that did happen in my life. There is a Math Olympiad in Hanoi every year that all the international schools in Hanoi participate. Teachers from each school brought up with the one set of question. For every set, each team was ranked. A team that…

onto a hard surface as the parking lot. They must design a carrier for the egg to house it during the drop. Typical carriers are milk cartons or shoeboxes. The students can modify the carrier by adding wings parachutes foam interiors or even marshmallow cushions. The students form hypotheses about which of the egg carriers will effectively protect the egg and then test those hypotheses. The experiment is not just for fun although students do enjoy it.

The food from the concession stands smelled amazing. Hot dogs roasting on the grill, the air filled with the smell of popcorn, nacho…
