L.A., Grade 5 TeacherEdmonton Christian Northeast School

I really enjoyed the integration between subjects. This topic connects electricity, weather and stewardship in a meaningful way. Also, very hands-on! (In-School program)

Grade 5 TeacherMichael A. Kostek

The presenter worked really well with the students, very knowledgeable and brought personal stories/connections to the presentation which engaged the students all the more. Just enough information was given before and then the kids were all actively engaged in the building. I was VERY impressed and will for sure book it again next year! (In-School program)
