      It’s a good thing that this man tries to encourage his students to do something with science. teachers that really are interested in their curiculum.

      We melt pennies at our school as well, though the AP class does it more for fun than anything.

      Aluminium is spelt like that so I think you’ll find we’re right. I’ve never seen an American call people from England English before :D, it’s always British.

      sulpher and sulfer is the other major one though i think nowadays we are supposed to use the american version as it sounds more like how it was pronounced when it was first found

      They never really touched the periodic table of elements until I was High School, except to say that it existed. Watching stuff like this really shows how slow my education was compared to others. Glad to see science actually being taught in schools though and not just rote memorization and regurgitation.

      doesnt every elementary school recite the pledge of allegiance every morning? My school did and why not?
