Guys, this sounds fun and as engaging as the old PET. I especially like the compactness! The whole year was too long! However, this year I'm teaching 6th grade math, not HS science, so can we figure out ways to let us still compete? I will be doing measurements and significant digits, so maybe we can discuss that. How about averages? What other ideas have for incorporating math? We all have to satisfy our standards, so let's be sure we think out how we can justify this project before the principal wants to see the standards it fulfills! janet Janet K.
