If this is your first visit to the new Science Website, you will notice that the set-up is quite different from the old IPG site. This new site will provide you with a lot more than IPG and Lesson Support documents. In the near future you will find stories about other Science teachers in the district, read about opportunities for professional development, and new district initiatives. Please come back often, and if you have any suggestions for stories, contact the webmaster or your Science contact....
