What can you do to help?
• Ensure that all teachers of science are aware of the library, AND the organization… especially elementary teachers.
• Enable every school to have at least one membership account. ($50)
• Encourage your excellent teachers to share their classroom-tested ideas by contributing to the Library.
• Contact pre-retirement teachers about our project.– To volunteer as active participants– To contribute some of their best materials as a legacy to
the science teaching community
