Over the past couple months we have been highlighting STEM organizations right here in Atlantic Canada. It was important to us to highlight organizations that strive for STEM inclusion for equity deserving groups. Here is a reference document with all all of the organizations we have featured and their contact information!
We have compiled our reading recommendations from our newsletters to create Two reading lists one for Teachers and Professionals and one for Youth and Parents!
We have created fun educational science activities that can be done from home! Each activity provides the relevant scientific background, instructions, concept questions and the opportunity to learn more science.
Post your creations and share with us by tagging @Wiseatlantic and using #GirlsGetWISE.
