**Check out this website, and don't forget our "facts!"**

 * 1) ==**T****here are more insects than people in the world.**==
 * 2) ==**The average American family produces 100 pounds of trash in a week.**==

==Go to the first website. Type in the first "fact" as a question (e.g. Are there more insects than people in the world?). Click on one of the results and see if you can find the answer. Use your pencil and paper to take notes on what you find. If you don't find anything, go back to your "results" page and click on another choice. Do the same thing for the other "fact" (e.g. How much trash does an American family make in a week?).==

=__// DON'T FORGET!!! - Just because you read something on the Internet DOESN'T MAKE IT TRUE. See if you can find out more about the person who wrote the information or where it comes from. Put that information in your notes. //__=
