Stay on track do a few logics every week.
Go see a movie at the Arizona Science Center, or, visit the zoo or the botanical garden. Just remember to write a one page summary about what you learned, and it will count for 1 logic!
http://www.theycamefromouterspace.com/about.html This link will take you to the meteorite man exhibit opening Oct. 5th at the Challenger center.
Open house at ASU. Link follows. Friday, Sept 28th from 6:00 - 10:00 pm. Attendance for two hours is five (5) learning activites. Bring a flyer you get a ASU in on Monday signed by Mom or Dad saying you were there and I'll stamp it for five (5) learning activites.
Do not use these as last minute ideas! You should be doing at least 2-3 logics per week. Please plan ahead. Free time? Do logics!

Solar Eclipses, Meteors, and Comets, Oh my! Check out this Calender of Celestial Events, it's amazing!
If you watch the event for 30 mins and you get your parents to sign a paper saying that you watched it, you will get 1 logic. Keep in mind that the "event" has to be an something you can't just watch any other night. For example, you can't just stare at the moon for 30 mins.
One of the best places to find logic ideas is at the Arizona Science Center(Downtown Phoenix) website. They have lots of hands-on activities and interesting exhibits. You can get credit for the museum and each show you see and write a summary on each of them.
Some other great places to find logic ideas are:
Lowell Observatory (Flagstaff, Arizona)
Bio Shpere 2 (Oracle, Arizona)
The Zoo (Phoenix, Arizona)
Challenger Space Center (Peoria, Arizona)
Museum of Northern Arizona (Flagstaff, Arizona)
Don't forget to call or have your parents call to make sure the information you got from this website is correct. Exhibits can change!
Don't forget you can always borrow(check -out) DVD's, VHS tapes, and National Geographics, from Mrs. Magish's Class Selections or the Public Library. [DONT FORGET TO TURN THEM BACK IN]
How about a trip to the zoo, botanical garden or other outdoor site? The weather is wonderful. Simply write one page on what you learned.
