recommending a site that is very helpful and if you have read any of my posts, you will know it is a story site.

This course sure keeps your attention, It would be a recommended resource, of course it might be enticing to older learners.  "I am back".  That could be as scary as where it came from and in a similar context, but what I mean is that I neglected to post a resource that has helped me many times.

https:/www.livescience.com

The site sends nudges about interesting things seldom spoken of such a preservation of a human body through freezing to preserve its' brain and knowledge to be retrieved at a later date when technology advances enough to restore it to full function, thus preserving skills and knowledge of those willing to pay the bill.

I did not realize so much has to be done to even freeze a human.   This type article is perfect to catch the eye of a middle school or high school rascal who might have played similar video games where "damage" is inflicted and can be restored.

There are topics related to viking DNA, alien life, relationships in physics and so much more.   Once underway it shows up randomly with a new topic and it's free!  I just got a notification about Panda Skeletons. and I have not read one titled powerful X.  

They are three to five paragraphs with a photo or two, I can't wait!

I have found it easy to incorporate many of the factoids into a few minutes in many lessons.  

Curiosity, reminds of Black Helicopters, doesn"t it?

I always come back to Oh! The Places You can Go or the Thinks you can Think
