Arctic & Greenland Politics
Fun Fact!
- Greenland is the world's largest island, but it has fewer people living on it than most small towns! Only about 56,000 people live on this giant icy island, which is bigger than Mexico. Most of Greenland is covered by a huge ice sheet that's over 2 miles thick in some places!
- Did you know that the Arctic Ocean is the smallest and shallowest of the world's five major oceans? It's also covered with ice for most of the year, and polar bears can smell seals from almost 1 mile away!

Technology & Cyber Safety
Fun Fact!
The word "robot" comes from a Czech word "robota" which means "forced work"! The first computer bug was actually a real bug - a moth got stuck in a computer in 1947! And AI programs can now create art, write stories, and even compose music, but they still can't understand jokes as well as humans can!

Space Science
Fun Fact!
Every atom of carbon in your body was made inside a star billions of years ago! When stars explode as supernovas, they scatter these elements across space. That means you are literally made of stardust! And tennis balls used to be white until 1972 when they changed to yellow so they would show up better on TV!
