Showcase of Exemplary Teaching Practices – The Fair

We all know that coming home from a teaching conference with ideas that you know are tried and true, and ready to go, is solid gold for a teacher. During the Fair, each participant is assigned a stand to present their project. There will be opportunities for you to visit each and every stand to see the experiments and demonstrations in action, and to display your own inventive methods. A portion of the fair will also be open to local educators.
