Polymers occur both naturally -- our DNA is a polymer -- and synthetically, like plastic, Silly Putty and styrofoam. Jan Mattingly explains how polymers have changed our world.

ÒHow is Power Divided in the United States GovernmentÓ TED Talks provides a quick review lesson with a video, a couple of comprehension questions and an open ended discussion question about the first 3 articles of the Constitution.
WARNING: this video is NOT particularly rigorous, but it might be used best as a warm up review for seniors, or perhaps in a flipped classroom, a reminder for students who will be coming in the next day for a deeper discussion or for absent students to catch them up, or ELL students, or struggling students.
