Intel Not Inside

Only tangentially related to homeschooling, but ...

The six-year hideous eyesore that is the never-t0-be-finished Intel building downtown is going to be blown up Sunday morning, at about ten to seven. No one can get within two blocks, but there are supposed to be good viewing locations on higher ground at about that distance.

Surely there's some way to work this into a unit study. Physics, or economics perhaps. Or perhaps we should just hold a wake for Smart Growth.

The husband and two of our kids were on the spot for the implosion Sunday morning on their way to the Cathedral. He reports that the 6-year-old was up at 5am to make sure they didn't miss it.

Need suggestions on physical science texts suitable to a 11-year-old with no science background. Have you ever seen this? http://www.physicstoday.org/vol-56/iss-5/p50.html
