What are we working on in class these days? I'm glad you asked that. I'll tell you. In freshman science, we've been talking about molecules and chemical reactions recently--so we made rock candy (crystals) in connection with our study. This student's came out better than any one that I've ever seen--it probably weighed about a half-pound. Mmm, sugar.
In addition, since chemical reactions also include oxidization (i.e. fire), we're watching a fascinating NOVA video about a serial arsonist. You can read more about the bizarre case of fireman John Orr here--truth really is stranger than fiction.
