Eureka! That's it!

This is what Archimedes, the Greek mathematician, said when he discovered that the volume of an object can be calculated by the amount of water it displaces. How did he make this discovery? Well, he was getting into de bath and the bath was so full that the water overflowed.

In this post, you will be able to watch some videos from the Science Channel that you might find interesting. I'll also provide you with some exercises to revise the use of quantifiers. So, let's get down to work, shall we?

To start with, why don't you have a go at the Eureka quiz? It'll be fun.

Time for vocabulary practice. Go through these exercises and the reading and video exercises will be much easier. Promise!
