For the Week of January 7th, 2024
Curiosity-provoking links to get your students (and you) wondering!
- Watch a new Japanese islet formed from a volcano. And then watch as it connects to another, older island!
- Elephant seals are really big. Lots of great little moments in this video, but I've cued it up at 2:50 for some laugh-out-loud nose close-ups.
- Yoann Bourgeois' "Celui qui tombe" (He who falls) is a performance of six acrobats on a spinning platform. And boy does that thing get spinning! There are several moments where it doesn't even look real. All set to Sinatra!
- Bird Photographer of the Year's 2020 Finalists in the "Bird Behavior" category. Is that hummingbird standing on another hummingbird's beak!? Find more categories here.
- Kid engineer, Amiyr, invents a seed-launching backpack to help create a more pollinator-friendly neighborhood.
