I'm not really sure if actually doing something will be effective for say learning history. I think of all the odd activities teachers had me do, and I kind of wish they just told me the story, but I'm a guy who now listens to history podcast so may just be personal.

Also think of all the odd physics demonstrations and I'm not sure they really often enhanced my knowledge more than a gif would of especially versus the expense. Does anyone know of any research around this area?

In some other teen circles it's a negative status symbol. In the "you wasted your money on that?" sort of way.

That merely states 'The Congress shall have Power … To make all Laws which shall be necessary and proper for carrying into Execution the foregoing Powers, and all other Powers vested by this Constitution in the Government of the United States, or in any Department or Officer thereof.'

Congress has the power to pass laws which are necessary and proper to carrying out the powers the states granted it in the Constitution. That doesn't mean that it has the power to pass any laws whatsoever, and even if it did the Tenth Amendment would supersede it.

The Constitution simply doesn't grant the United States general power to deal with natural disasters, so there is nothing necessary and proper for the federal government to do.
