German Jewish athlete Margaret Lambert, was born Gretel Bergmann in the south of Germany. She loved sports even at a young age. Many of her friends were non-Jewish and it was never a problem until a certain time period. In Spring 1933, she got a letter from her Sports Club because she was Jewish. The Germans established an Olympic training camp, they invited Jewish athletes, and none of them were selected to the German team, two were chosen that were half Jewish. The reason they were chosen because of the American pressure. Milton Green discusses his action of boycotting the Olympics. There was no publicity of the boycott and he wonders if anyone even knew. Good video that explains what happened in the 1936 Olympics. Video contains a lot of good information and is of good quality. Video is for high school students.

There has been growing interest in finding 'second generation' alternatives to food crops that "don't grow on arable land and instead can be used specifically for bio fuels," says Professor Rob Martienssen of the Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory in Laurel Hollow, New York.
One promising candidate is a "superweed" called duckweed, the smallest flowering plant in the world. "We're interested in using or optimizing duckweed for use as a biomass bio fuel based on its ability to grow on waste water and water in places which you would never imagine crops would grow," Martienssen tells Big Think.

Did you ever wonder what tumbleweeds are? Let's make sense of it with science! To learn what tumbleweeds are, let's head out to where the tumbleweed's really roll. This video explains that tumbleweeds are annual plants and grow in the spring and summer. Then fall comes. The plant and tap root dry up. The plant snaps away from the tap root and the plant tumbles its way around and scatters its seeds. A variety of pictures are shown as well as auditory/written content. This would be a great resource for a lesson/unit on cowboys, plants, life cycles, etc. and would work well in conjunction with reading non-fiction/fiction texts on these subjects. This would certainly help to build background knowledge for students. (01:48)

The Human Genome Project announced in the spring of 2001 that they had sequenced the entire human genome of three billion base pairs. How did they do it? Starting with intact chromosomes, this step-by-step activity shows how the DNA is cut into fragments, cloned, and replicated, and, finally, how the sequence is detected and assembled.
