WEBSITE: World population

[Nancy Schiffer <nancy@KHS.JCSD1.K12.WY.US>]

Hi colleagues!--I just found a nifty new website that deals with  world
population.  In an effort to show what the earth's population is,  they are
collecting stick figure drawings, and will display them all together,
showing the enormity of numbers like 6 billion.  Viewers can click on
information about world population, about this project, then draw and
submit a stick figure to the gallery.  They can even view "recent
submissions" and see their own picture among others.  I had the kids who
were in for detention at noon (yes, in the Library) try it out and they
loved it...will test it next  on my seventh grade geography class (we're
studying India right now...how Excellent for 7th grade last period on
Friday....)
