I am posting about an opportunity for those 4-8th grade students in science. This videoconfernce is for teachers to see what is available to them from one of the better vendors out there. "Get acquainted with 4-8th Grade Upper Elementary Science Videoconferences" is an after-school demo which will give science teachers a look at what distance learning content providers offer for student programs. Please stop by to see what the possibilities are. It is short notice, so you will want to schedule this one quickly.
