"For most middle-schoolers, being on social media can mean connecting with friends, sharing pictures, and keeping up to date. But it can also mean big-time distractions, social pressures, and more. Help students navigate the different feelings they may already be experiencing on social media.
Students will be able to:
*Identify the role of social media in students' lives.
*Reflect on the positive and negative effects of using social media on their relationships.
*Recognize "red flag feelings" when using social media, and consider ways to handle them."

All Nations Hope Network, Saskatchewan has created a resource for the sacred story of the Mistasiniy including background information into story telling from generation to generation. The atayohkewina (sacred story) is presented with both English and Cree.
The sacred telling of Buffalo Child, is a living narrative of how Buffalo Child stone (Mistasiniy) came into being. We follow the life story of a little boy called Buffalo Child, as he transitions into manhood within the embrace of his buffalo family. In this âtayôhkewina - sacred story, we trace Buffalo Child’s transformation as a human and into a four legged being, finally his manifestation into stone. The sacred telling ends in the demise of Mistasiniy.
This poster highlights a variety of Earth science careers, featuring short biographies from 13 NASA Earth explorers, including scientists, engineers, educators and more. The poster also includes information about NASA's unique perspective on the Earth, one educator's story about how he uses NASA Earth science data and materials in his middle school classroom, and a collection of classroom activity suggestions.
This webinar provides a hands-on demonstration of the new authoring tool in The Resource Bank.

STEM CAREERS, TECHNOLOGY & INNOVATION
What can you do with the nanoscale? This video shows us all the possibilities of how operating at the nanoscale can open up a whole new world in the advancement of science and technology.
ABOUT THE SCIENCE
The word nano is from the Greek word “Nanos”, which means dwarf. Nanoscience works on a scale 1000 times smaller than anything that can be seen with an optical microscope, which is the microscope you most likely use in your science classroom.
Nanoscience is an fascinating study using physical science, chemistry, physics, biology, environmental science and engineering. The career opportunities are equally diverse. Nano is all about the very small things in life, the stuff beyond what your eyes can see. How small is small? One hair on your head is between 50,000 and 100,000 in diameter.
The nanoscale is based on the nanometre, which is one billion times smaller than a meter. In fact, because nano is a prefix, it always means one billionth of the unit connected. A nanosecond is one billionth of a second, a nanogram is; you guessed it! One billionth of a gram.
When working on the small scale of nano, new materials and devices are developed by manipulating individual atoms and molecules. By manipulating these small structures you can change the properties of the material creating new materials with many applications. Although nano is small it has the potential to make big impacts. By working with nanomaterial you could conquer global issues such as cleaning unsafe drinking water, detecting cancer, and building faster technologies.
