Another FREE Workshop and Multimedia Kit!

It?s a Gas! Math & Science of the Blimp

The workings of the blimp provide the framework for students in grades 6-10 to learn the math and science concepts they must understand to pass Ohio?s proficiency tests. Follow two high school students as they produce a video about how blimps are made and how they work.

Eleven video programs are part of the series, along with a teachers guide, a CD-ROM of activities and a DVD that includes all the programs. The kit is keyed to the standards. Call Laura Jarvis at or e-mail her at to register.
