Nancy asks…
How to make the best of the summer (to prepare for HS)?
I’m going into high school next year, and really want to optimise my abilities and embellish on any skills before the school year starts.
This is my class list:
1. Science 9
2. Literary Seminar 1
3. French 1
4. Journalism
5. Algebra 1
6. Fitness
7. Social Studies 9
8. Literature and Composition 9
I’m shooting for an IB diploma (Literary Seminar is a pre-requisite).
I’m above average in math, but not spectacular or anything. I was actually supposed to be going into Geometry this year, (I took the equal of prealgebra in 7th, but didn’t turn anything in because of personal issues, so I was demoted to regular math).
My reading is college level according to a Lexile test we took (my lexile was 1620, I believe), and my writing has never been measured, but I do have something of a passion for the art (though I do have MAJOR writer’s block)
Any tips on honing my skills and sharpen my mind over the next month? Thanks.

Origin and Destiny of the Universe
Why is our Universe the way we see it to be? And what will ultimately become of it? These are two fundamental questions which have long interested humankind. In the more than 70 years since the discovery that that the Universe is expanding, we have made some significant steps in understanding how the Universe began and how it must have evolved to be what it is today.

Ken asks…
Any good free websites for a 10 year old boy?
We are new to the internet and my son would like to communicate with other people on the net for fun.
I would like him to use net purposefully, to improve his typing and comunication skills and hopefully learn stuff.
So far has just played lots of shooting games!
He is hyperactive and has some social dificulties but his english skills are good.

George asks…
What is the site that has a game where a stickman is avoiding rocks rolling at him and theres a shark?
I used to play this game in middleschool. the site would give you codes for how far you got because each level had a different game/puzzle you had to win to move on. kinda circle shape with numbers if anyone knows what site this is i forgot what it was

What are some good websites for a 6th grader?
This is for studying at home.
I repeat – This is for studying, not really games. Math, Reading, that kind of stuff.
