Welcome to the Lab

The CLS, in Saskatoon, SK, is located on Treaty Six land in the traditional territories of the Nêhiyawak (Cree), Anishinabek, Lakota, Dakota and Nakota Nations, and the homeland of the Métis. As educators, we respect Indigenous Ways of Knowing and oral traditions. We dedicate ourselves to moving forward in the spirit of partnership, reconciliation, and collaboration. 

How Can We Help?

The Virtual Classroom was created to have an accessible learning platform that students and educators from across Canada and the globe, especially those in remote areas, can engage with our learning activities and resources. We want to provide the opportunity for every student to learn and connect to science contexts, whether in their classroom, in the lab, at their home, or here, in the virtual classroom. We are here to help! Reach out to us if you have questions along the way.
