See the elements!

Okay, yeah, I'm back already. I guess this is the first of those little spot posts I talked about. So today, I was back in the same science room I taught in twice last week. This gave me a chance to right a wrong! I had planned to bring in an old Tom Lehrer song and play it for them, since they were studying the periodic table. But I completely forgot about it until the day was almost over. So today, I found an animated version of "The Elements" and started class off with it today. They seemed to enjoy it, especially in the two classes I played it twice. So go on over to http://www.privatehand.com/flash/elements.html and take a look at Tom singing the periodic table to the tune of Sir Arthur Sullivan.
