A way to look at Eureka with the monthly principles

...and just put "etc" after everything

Life: very internal, self-examination, think small! microscope, patterns, math and science basics, scientific method, puzzles, fractals, pascal's triangle, different forms of measurement (although this can also fit in "society" well)...

Liberty: creativity, imagination, string theory, number theory, space...

Work/Property: study the character of a scientist like Edison who sacrificed and worked hard (most of them did!), buildings, stability, earthquakes, gardening, other things that affect or relate to our property...

Creator: study of theorems and laws, like evolution, gravity, geometry, study the wonder of God's creation :)...

Service-Oriented leadership: scientists/mathematicians motivated by desire to help, like Pasteur and other microbiologists or physicians,...

Society: Macro-patterns, architectural principles (bridges), engineering, how things relate, big picture stuff, plants, ecology, animals, etc., relationships between concepts, cryptography...

Citizenship: Cause and effect,  motion, force, mathematicians/scientists that changed their world for the good (so many!)

As you brainstorm which scientists/mathematicians/concepts you want to use for the year, it just might make for more connections if you can find a month from above where they might fit a little better.  Just thinkin' out loud...

Of course, some topics may fit better into different monthly themes, according to some people, so go with it! :)

Don't forget the post that has lists of mathematicians, scientists, and concepts!  Please add your own to it :).  If we all do a little, then it will be amazing!
