Question Time 2: "Stan the Man"


Always with the questions!
Who would win in a fight: Human Torch or the Silver Surfer?
--Angel, Ms. D'Ascoli's class
Stan Lee, the man who invented both characters. Lee is from the Bronx. He founded Marvel Comics after graduating from DeWitt Clinton High School a few blocks up Grand Concourse.

Here's what Stan Lee has to say about elementary school:
Stan sees many things that can be done with education to make it more beneficial [helpful] to students. To him, there is nothing more exciting than history, geography, language or science, if those subjects are taught in an imaginative, entertaining way. He thinks teachers need to take a tip from show biz, to learn how to hold a youngster’s interest, to make him want to learn by making learning fun.
I hope this blog makes science learning fun!
