Periodic Table - a new spin

Back to the funnies this Friday - the following is a new spin on chemistry. A great way to help memory retention around periodic table facts and chemical reactions, I wonder what chemical reactions would be best to simulate using the methodology used in the following video clip?

A couple of clever video's

The following 2 video's are worth having a look. The time and effort that has gone into them is staggering - the first video was created on a Mac and the second on a Windows PC. Enjoy.

Not a funny but a fun one...

The following video does a great job in detailing what you need to do - for those that work in metric the follow link may be of use - metric conversions.

This could have helped me - Mathmaticious

For this weeks funny I had to add this little clip from YouTube. It shows that anyone can record a smart, witty and educational video and share it with the world and with over a million visits that some serious mathematical rap viewing.

And our educational authorities block these sites....   (Apologies to those who are blocked from seeing this at their school)
