There's a radical - and wonderful - new idea here . . . that all children could and should be inventors of their own theories, critics of other people's ideas, analyzers of evidence, and makers of their own personal marks on the world." - Deborah Meier, Educator

Student Videos: National Immunization Awareness Week, Canada

 

by WKCD| FEBRUARY 12, 2015

(In the U.S, the annual campaign is called National Infant Immunization Week; it coincides with World Immunization Week which will take place this year April 24-30.)
