Digital History: Slavery in Colonial America
A very interesting look at slaves and free blacks in colonial America, especially in the South, up to about 1660. See how the concept of slavery and the use of slaves was fluid until that time.

Ted: Ted Ed: How Do Your Kidneys Work?
After drinking a few glasses of water on a hot day, you might be struck with a sudden urge. Behind that feeling are two bean-shaped organs that work as fine-tuned internal sensors. This video describes how the incredible kidneys balance...

Ted: Ted Ed: The Unexpected Math Behind Van Gogh's "Starry Night"
Physicist Werner Heisenberg said, "When I meet God, I am going to ask him two questions: why relativity? And why turbulence? I really believe he will have an answer for the first." As difficult as turbulence is to understand...

Libre Text: Geostrophic Balance
Geostrophic balance is arguably the most central concept in physical oceanography and dynamical meteorology. A key feature of geostrophic balance is that rather than flowing from high to low pressure, the fluid actually moves parallel to...

Physics Aviary: Practice Problems: Density of Rock Determination
Students must determine the density of a rock based on the change in tension in the supporting string when the rock is lowered into a fluid.

Science Struck: Working Principle, Types, Applications of a Manometer
A manometer is used to measure the pressure of a gas or fluid. This article explains the principle behind the working of manometers, the different types, and how they are used. Formulas used to calculate pressure are also given.
Physics Aviary
Physics Aviary: Force Buoyancy Lab
This lab was designed to have students test the relationships that affect the force buoyancy. Not all things they change will be factors. They can change mass of bottle, volume of bottle, fluid type and planet.
Science Struck
Science Struck: Examples of Convection
Gives lots of examples of convection and instructions for a simple experiment that looks at convection currents in a fluid.
Illustrative Mathematics
Illustrative Mathematics: 4.nf Using Place Value
Each part of this task highlights a slightly different aspect of place value as it relates to decimal notation. More than simply being comfortable with decimal notation, the point is for students to be able to move fluidly between and...
