About this listen

 Episode Description: Max and Molly are shocked to discover their school has mysteriously time-warped back to 1970—and so has Aunt Murgatroyd, who’s now a teenager again. As they navigate outdated vending machines, retro slang, and payphones, they realize something more sinister may be at play. For one thing, there is a rocket emergency in outer space – while closer to home, the POGs seem to be targeting a young Aunt M – and Charlene may be helping them! Math Concepts: Elapsed time calculation (i.e. - 2025 minus 1970 = 55 years); Basic probability concepts; Fractions and percentages; Pattern recognition; Estimation and coin math. History/Geography Concepts: The Apollo 13 crisis – a real-world 1970 event involving NASA’s near-catastrophic moon mission. Cultural context of 1970s America: decor, fashion, technology, and retro candy
