7th graders returned from mid-winter break this week and began working on their online research skills.  They started by playing with the online puzzle challenge game called “A Google A Day“.

After discovering that Rachel, Nevada draws science fiction enthusiasts, that the half-life of cesium-137 is shorter (30 years) than uranium-238 (4.5 billion years), and how to say good morning in Romanian (bună dimineaţa) the students came together and discussed how to conduct a Google search that provides you with the information you need.
