  1. That’s exactly what I thought!
  2. The Mysterious Star by Joanne Marxhausen was my favorite as a kid. It is out of print, but you can find used copies. I love this book and keep a couple on hand to give a Christmas gifts.
  3. About AP Classroom videos… I teach calculus not stats, but this hint might work for stats, too. I make guided notes to go with the videos for my students. Mostly it’s the problems already on paper so they don’t have to pause to do that. It just gives them a little help. Those problems get very wordy, and they really need the whole problem on paper, not just what they think are the important parts.
  4. I have had lots of friends who have gone to school there and worked there over the years. I hope you love it.
  5. Infinite Powers by Strogatz, mentioned above, would be good for this purpose.
  6. Hemingway’s Nick Adams stories take place in northern Michigan. It’s been a while since I read them, sitting on Walloon Lake where Hemingway vacationed.
  7. What an amazing relationship! Wow! Thank you for sharing him with us over the years. I have always thought that you are one spectacular mom. Hugs.
  8. Maybe some different versions of the same song? Like Simon and Garfunkel vs Disturb’s Sounds of Silence. Or multiple versions of Proud Mary.
  9. Every time you post, I think of home. I always wonder if we have people in common. My parents moved us there in 1971. They were choosing between Columbia and Reston. I agree that it’s really expensive, and that’s one reason my parents moved after my dad retired. My parents’ house was worth more than 10x what they paid for it in 1978 when they sold it in 2004. (It was our second Columbia house.) I haven’t been back since my high school reunion in 2018. I would like to visit soon.
  10. Columbia, Maryland It’s where I grew up. I love that place.
  11. You know when t=0, there are 800 milligrams. You use that to find k, which should be 800. Then you can solve.
  12. My oldest two sons went to Georgia Tech. Besides their cool design classes in mechanical and aerospace engineering, they had some fun English classes. One of my sons had an English class based on the journals of Ivan Allen, Jr, who was mayor of Atlanta during the Civil Rights Movement of the 1960s. The final project involved making a story map using GIS. They did a lot of reading based on what the former mayor had read. They did field trips. They met some interesting people, like John Lewis (right before he died) and Andrew Young. My oldest son had a class about science fiction and science reality. There was an article in the GT Alumni magazine about it. A friend who is an English teacher had classes with James Dickey, who wrote Deliverance. This was at UGA.
