Ellen McHenry's Basement Workshop

I've been building and inventing educational things for the past 20 years, including educational games, projects, songs, activities, skits, plays, textbooks, hands-on science exhibits, and published books. This site really is like putting my basement online. One by one, I am working my way through the stacks of things sitting on my shelves, digitalizing them, and posting them for anyone who might find them useful. http://www.ellenjmchenry.com/

Project Noah

http://www.projectnoah.org/ Cassowary favorited by Emma 4702, Queensland, Australia 6 minutes ago Cassowaries are Gondwanan in origin and were concentrated in the small part of the supercontinent that later broke apart and became the present areas of Northern Australia, Papua New Guinea and some of the eastern island groups of Indonesia. Two separate populations of Australian cassowary exist - one in the Wet Tropics area from Mt Halifax/Paluma through to Cooktown and the other on Cape York Peninsula in the McIlwraith and Iron Ranges, Jardine River area and the Eastern Dunes. The Australian cassowary is called the Southern Cassowary or sometimes the Double-wattled Cassowary. Once you realise that this species is also found in Papua New Guinea along with two more species and several subspecies, then it becomes clear why ours is called the Southern Cassowary.

http://www.mainlesson.com/main/displayarticle.php?article=feature The Baldwin Project currently offers five different comprehensive histories of ancient Greece, two of which have been republished through Yesterday's Classics . Although they all cover the same basic period, there are important differences in their styles, and in the audiences to whom they are directed. The most basic introduction to Greece, readily accessible to grammar school children, is Haaren and Poland's Famous Men of Greece . Assuming no prior knowledge of Greece, it introduces most of the important gods, heroes, and legends, before relating the lives of Lycurgus and Solon, the early law-givers of Sparta and Athens. Famous Men of Greece introduces history through biographical sketches.
