We all expect a spring to stretch or compress when a force is applied, but forces can even deform solid objects like the floor or the top of a table. In this workshop, students in a high school classroom explore ideas about tension and normal force. By applying a force to a spring and measuring the distance the spring is stretched, the students calculate the force constant or stretchiness of the spring. Lecture demonstrations using student volunteers help to illustrate that even rigid objects bend when a force is applied.

Each week, Mrs. Matthews students work in teams of four to complete six different centers. This week they are studying the scientific method. This week's centers include: (1) a website that asks the students to use the data provided to make a line graph, bar graph, and pie graph (2) a station where students predict the weight of 5 different boxes and use spring scales to measure the actual weight in grams (3) a station for classifying buttons by color and number of holes (4) a crossword puzzle that incorporates key vocabulary words (5) a memory matching game with key vocabulary words (6) an online video about how scientist use the scientific method in real life and (7) an ongoing experiment about seed germination. Vocabulary words for this week include: variable, control, predict, observe, infer, hypothesis, conclusion, data, and classify. (03:00)

The wondrous flight of millions of monarch butterflies from their roosts in the Sierra Madre mountains of Mexico has long captured the imagination of scientists, nature lovers and tourists. Each spring, the butterflies begin their remarkable journey north. They travel thousands of miles on a trek that provides them with optimal breeding conditions and ultimately ensures the survival of the species. This video segment from Nature captures the butterflies' spring awakening. Run time 03:02.

An exploration into the customs and practices surrounding Chinese New Year in both China and the United States. In China, the Chinese return home for the most important cultural holiday of the year, for which people have been preparing for weeks. In America, the most prominent symbol of Chinese New Year is the dragon, said to represent good luck. New Year ushers in a series of festivals beginning with the 15-day Spring Festival and ending with the Lantern Festival, often called the Chinese Valentine's Day, because of its association with lovers.

This is a well-done animation of I See A Song. A violinist starts the song with saying. I see a song. I paint music. I hear color. I touch the rainbow and the deep spring in the ground. My music talks. My colors dance. Come, listen, and let your imagination see your own song. The rest of the video shows beautiful, colorful illustrations such as sun and moon. The sun and moon turn into a boat with the ocean below. The ocean turns into a woman's face., etc. Very well done. This will capture students' attention. Would be super for a music and art class as well (04:29)

On September 1, 1939, the Second World War commenced in Europe when German troops invaded Poland. After the conquest of Poland and its division between Germany and the Soviet Union, Europe settled into the "Phony War." In the spring, Hitler unleashed a "blitzkrieg" ("lightening war") that swept through Denmark, Norway, Belgium, and the Netherlands. Taking advantage of the non-aggression pact, Soviet forces defeated Finland and occupied the Baltic States. Winston Churchill succeeded the discredited Neville Chamberlain as prime minister of Great Britain, but he could offer little help to the French who surrendered to Germany on June 22, 1940. The Germans occupied strategically significant portions of France, and Marshal Henri Pétain established a government at the southern city of Vichy that collaborated with the Nazis. This agreement prevented the French Navy from uniting with the British.

Death is what fungi are all about. By feasting on the deceased remains of almost all organisms on the planet, converting the organic matter back into soil from which new life will spring, they perform perhaps the most vital function in the global food web. Fungi, which thrive on death, make all life possible. (11:52)

From Dragonfly TV. Phoebe and Shannon love exploring Yellowstone National Park. There are so many cool things to see: the canyon, waterfalls, wildlife, lakes, hot springs, and geysers! The girls went to Canyon Visitor Center to learn more about these features-especially the thermal basins, places where there are lots of geysers or hot springs. The park sits on a really big hot spot, made up of magma that rises from deep in the earth. All this magma heats up the ground water in the area and creates thermal features including geysers, hot springs, fumaroles, and mud pots. Geysers are thermal features that have narrow space in their plumbing. Steam forces water through this opening and boom, the geyser erupts! The girls investigate the following question: Why doesn't every thermal basin have a geyser?

This is a lesson excerpt. To see the whole video go to mindbites.com/lesson/918. This video explains direct proportionality. Professor Burger uses a real-world example of a spring and Hooke's Law using a slinky. Hooke's law states that the distance a spring stretches varies directly to the force applied. If force, f, is directly proportional to distance, d, then d~f or d=kf. This equation allows us to find the constant, k, of how much the spring stretches when force is applied. After we have found this number, we can determine the distance the spring will stretch with varying forces applied.

(23:17) Bodhidharma is the legendary Buddhist monk who brought Zen (Ch'an) practice from India to China in the 5th Century.
Bodhidharma's Shoe is a personal account of a seven-day intensive Zen retreat or "Sesshin" at Bodhi Manda Zen Center. The filmmaker intercuts video of the retreat with drawings of traditional Japanese Zen monastic life by Giei Sato that were published in the book "Unsui: A Diary of Zen Monastic Life" (University of Hawaii Press). Bodhi Manda Zen Center is located in Jemez Springs, New Mexico. The teacher is Joshu Sasaki Roshi who was born in Japan in 1907 and came to the United States to teach in 1962. Bodhi Manda is one of the more
traditional Rinzai Zen centers in the United States. Other American Zen centers have adapted and changed (using English in the chanting, for example) but the core practices of Zen centers are similar.

On Groundhog Day, a bunch of men, wearing suits and top hats, pull a groundhog out of a hole in Punxsutawney, Pennsylvania. They then read a scroll the groundhog supposedly wrote, that states whether or not it saw its shadow. This determines if winter will last another six weeks, or if spring is coming soon. It's a bit of an odd tradition, but a similar practice has been taking places for centuries. (03:06)

THE DETECTIVE: Wes Cowan THE PLACE: Reno, Nevada THE CASE: In the late spring of 1945, in some of the bloodiest fighting of World War Two, Allied forces move north through Italy, liberating towns from Fascist control. Italy’s leader, Benito Mussolini, is in hiding. A deadly cat and mouse game unfolds as members of the American spy service, the OSS, hunt for Mussolini, to try him as a war criminal. But Il Duce has terrorized Italians for twenty one years – and the US Military are in a race with Italian Partisans who want vengeance. Jerry Steichen, of Reno, Nevada, has a weapon which he believes may be connected to the last days of the world’s first fascist state. Jerry wants to know if a dagger his uncle brought back from the war belonged to Mussolini himself. (15mins)

Read in a deep, rich, lush voice by Bertram Selwyn, the only person to record all of Shakespeare's sonnets on YouTube, and to offer the recordings free to the world. The text appears overlying a famous portrait of Shakespeare. Voice over. "From fairest creatures we desire increase, That thereby beauty's rose might never die, But as the riper should by time decease, His tender heir might bear his memory: But thou, contracted to thine own bright eyes, Feed'st thy light'st flame with self-substantial fuel, Making a famine where abundance lies, Thyself thy foe, to thy sweet self too cruel. Thou that art now the world's fresh ornament And only herald to the gaudy spring, Within thine own bud buriest thy content And, tender churl, makest waste in niggarding. Pity the world, or else this glutton be, To eat the world's due, by the grave and thee." (1:14)
