Thing 20

YouTube, what a life saver in the classroom.  It has yet to let me down when trying to find a video for class to supplement material that is discussed in class.  Most recently, we have been discussing simple machines in the physical science class that I teach.  I have given notes over them, worksheets, had class discussions, and even demonstrations.  But nothing gets my students more excited when I turn off the front row of lights and say today I want to show you a short video about .....   You would think that they have just won the lottery and they will be your best friend that day.  I was fortunate enough to find a video from my childhood that none of them had ever seen and by someone that few of them had heard of.  In fact some thought that this person was dead.  I am not going to tell you who or what, you will just have to watch the linked video below to find out yourself.
