Homeschooling Fun

Anyone interested in doing a unit study on Benjamin Franklin? We started one last week and WOW there are lots of hits on Google.

The very best thing was a hit on a PBS site that had a video simulation about making the kite and a lightening rod work. Of course they have all manner of warnings not to try it in real life, as it is very very dangerous. :) Here is the link: (we had lots of fun with this!)
