Thanks for having us! We had a great time on our field trips to Hamilton Harbour last week! Students tried out microscopes, minnow traps, and learned more about invasive species in the ecosystem. Thanks @NSERC_CRSNG and @McMasterU’s ABEL lab for partnering with us!

We’re starting a new series on social media. Every 2 weeks we’ll share 3 videos that focus on all areas of STEAM and encourage kids to question, discover and create.
This week we’re learning about cell membranes and today question is: Why do you think cells need a membrane?
