Share Fair and STEMosphere is coming to Bridgewater, VA

by
Julie Walker

Share Fair is a day for educators to come together and become part of the transformation of teaching and learning.

Share Fair provides an opportunity for educators, students, and the community to come together with the leaders in K-12 innovation to experience hands-on, mind-on education methods helping to transform education and propel schools across the country toward the best 21st Century learning opportunities.

Share Fair will bring together educators from throughout the country for a free day of thought provoking and highly interactive symposia and professional development workshops (called Classroom Intensives) – to explore the theme of STEM Education: Explore. Invent. Experiment and to give educators the tools with which they can bring what they learn at Share Fair back to their classrooms.

Share Fair will also present a free, public exhibition of hands-on STEM inspired projects, titled STEMosphere, and will highlight the STEM driven innovation and creativity of multiple local institutions including…

  • Anatomy in Clay Centers
  • Augusta Health
  • Boy Scouts of America
  • Bridgewater College
  • Murder at Old Fields Forensic Science
  • Explore More Discovery Museum
  • KEVA planks
  • Discovery Kids Puterbugs
  • STEM Tot Academy
  • the Jane Goodall Institute
  • The Nature Conservancy
  • Virginia FIRST Robotics

So, join in the fun at Bridgewater College on Saturday, November 8, for a transformative—and fun—learning adventure, helping teachers bring innovation and technology into their classrooms, and teaching kids to love STEM—science, technology, engineering and math (and don’t forgot about the arts)—with hands-on, interactive activities and experiments!

This is a FREE, exciting event, sponsored by the Morgridge Family Foundation. The event begins at 9 a.m. for educators and 9:30 a.m. for the public.
