3M Community Giving

A Professional Home for Teachers!
The Science Museum of Minnesota recently launched the Science House: A Resource Center for Teachers
Science House is a place where teachers can check out hands-on materials for their students, engage in informal consultation and professional development and learn from each other in a comfortable and creative environment. Ultimately, it is a way to get more students interested in math and science by bring new, interesting resources into the classroom. For example, a comparative anatomy class comes to life when students can see and compare skulls of various animals.
A grant from the 3M Foundation helped make this resource possible.
