Today marks the beginning of Excellence in Science, Technology, and
Mathematics Education Week (ESTME), a week-long celebration of science and math
education. It's not too late to incorporate some of the ESTME Week teaching 
resources
and activities into your classroom. The ESTME website http://www.estme.org
offers a wealth of information, such as "the best of the best" in online
science, math, and technology resources nationwide and interactive experiences. 
Don't
miss a webcast of a Capitol Hill version of the Exploratorium's popular "Iron
Science Teacher" competition.

Also this week, on Tuesday, the U.S. Department of Education will hold the
first-ever Summit on Science as part of the Administration's nationwide Math 
and
Science Initiative. Top leaders in science and education, including Secretary
of Education Rod Paige, will come together to discuss the importance of K-12
science education and showcase innovative science programs. And later this
week, President Bush will announce the 2003 Presidential Award for Excellence 
in
Mathematics and Science Teaching recipients.
