Lily Pad Escape (Video)
Monday 9/29: In this video segment from Cyberchase, the CyberSquad is trying to escape from a desert island by crossing a large body of water. They find a special lily pad that was left for them by the Red Warrior. When the lily pad is put in water it doubles and the number of lily pads keeps on doubling. The CyberSquad tries to use this doubling effect to help them create a lily pad bridge to cross the water and escape. |
Chess Wager (Video)
Monday 9/29: In this video segment from Cyberchase, Harry plays a game of chess with a young friend and suggests a wager on the game. Harry’s friend uses a story to explain how putting a penny on the first square and then doubling the amount on each square of the chessboard can generate a tremendous amount of money over time. |
