If you are looking for some science workshops on District Day, we have several workshops that still have space.

If you are a K-7 teacher interested in pursuing inquiry, David Barnum is offering a Hands-On/Minds-On science workshop in the afternoon.  Let’s Talk Science is a program out of SFU that offers field trips and support for science teaching–they will be showcasing their many curriculum related activities.

On the Gr 7-12 curriculum, GeneSkool is a program of Genome BC that offers workshops and kits for classrooms around the province.

Some of our colleagues are also putting on great workshops. Kent Lui, Burnaby South Department Head, is presenting a workshop on CER (Claim, Evidence and Reasoning) as used to guide classroom discussions and inquiry.  Burnaby Central Science Department Head Tara Cordy-Simpson is presenting about using social media to further your own professional growth.

Get engaged in these wonderful offerings.
