While reading ‘Science for English Language Learners:K-12 Classroom Strategies’ ( from the NSTA – National Science Teachers Association ) I came across this discussion of best practices in science teaching. It is only 3 pages and worth examining.

Applications for the Salmonid Project (raising salmon in classrooms) will be sent to interested Burnaby schools in mid to late October. Here are a few links that might be helpful if you are considering applying:
www.salmonidsintheclassroom.ca (outlines the program’s timelines)
www.streamtosea.ca (K-12 learning resources)
http://www.salmonidsintheclassroom.ca/cooling.html (information on refrigeration units – approximately $1200 – schools are encouraged to apply for funding and purchase one for the school’s use – these are usually borrowed from DFO for the first year ) – contact Bev Bowler from DFO ( bgbowler@me.com ) for information on grants for chillers if school/district funding is not available – note: Sd41 Salmon Co-ordinator is Coleen Barndt (at Gilmore)
Burnaby Schools recently involved:
Alpha, Aubrey, Brentwood Park, Burnaby Central, Chaffey-Burke, Confederation Park, Gilmore, Inman, Lochdale, Parkcrest, Sperling, Stoney Creek, Taylor Park, Twelfth Ave, University Highlands and Windor
Karl Wodtke (Abbotsford Curriculum Helping Teacher) has shared a couple of his review files that you might find useful.
