Supplier: Mr. Z's Fund Raising Corp. Mr. Z's is a full line, full service company. We service the United States coast to coast (excluding Alaska and Hawaii). We provide hundreds of different products from Z-licious frozen pizza,
quality gift items and wrap to candy bars, lollipops and magazine subscriptions. Several of their small catalogs are designed to complement other catalogs
while restricting the offerings to just the best sellers.

Educators will enjoy these materials a great deal, and they may wish to recommend the "Physics in Your World" section to fellow travelers and students. In this section, visitors can learn about centripetal force through the world of water-skiing and the principles behind optical microscopy. There's also the "Physics at Home" archive which brings together information on building a telescope at home and ways to learn about diffraction with just a few pencils and a miniature light. http://www.compadre.org/informal/
Things to see: The Baylor University College of Medicine continues to work at a furious pace on their delightful BioEd Online site, and educators everywhere love them for their work and dedication. Recently, they placed this “ready-to-go” lesson on the water cycle and global warming online, and it’s a true delight. As with the other lessons in this series, the materials here include a brief description of the lesson’s objective, along with information on the intended audience, the materials required to complete the lesson, and so on. Teachers will note that they will need to download a slide set, several activity sheets, and a “State of the Climate Report” offered from the National Climatic Data Center. http://www.bioedonline.org/lessons/water-cycle.cfm
