SAVE THE DATE: MAY 11th: École Le Mascaret Moncton NB This is the year of Brilliance:) The greatest Show and Tell on Earth is coming to you in May in the Greater Moncton area. The event will be showcasing projects from the 4 Atlantic provinces where makers from community, industry and schools all come together to share the stories of their creations. These stories include the tools they used and the materials they manipulated to create their masterpieces. In the Atlantic Provinces, we are fortunate to have young makers who have access to exciting new technologies. This, combined with a strong sense of perseverance and entrepreneurship, sets the stage for a celebration not to be missed.
Each season we offer a more in-depth look at the innovations within our communities and around us. Success stories of our students, interesting innovation ideas, and project ideas you could use in your classroom. Nominate a Teacher for TAKE Five, a regular article, to highlight a champion teacher.
