A Weekly Dose of Curiosities and Puzzlements

Ian Byrd is at it again! Each week subscribers get a free list of five links to interesting images, articles, and videos to share with their class.

A recent list included Hand Drawn Circles (tricks for drawing perfect circles by hand), sculptures from an Ice and Snow Sculpture Festival in China, renditions of Arabic words, illustrated to match their literal meaning, a Tokyo art installation of hanging numbers, and a video of a Hawaiian lava flow into the ocean.

Kids can use the resources on the list to ask questions, make connections, share ideas - - all in the name of building a classroom culture of curiosity.
