Recently I came across a graphic so stunning, I just had to share it. I printed it out and posted it on the door of our lunchroom here at Educational Innovations.
It contained no cats, no LOLZ, no pop references to current hit movies, songs or TV shows. Indeed, it didn’t even have any images at all!

We don’t have a crystal ball, but these are our predictions for Summer Science in the news.
