Second annual WHERE Challenge: After receiving rave reviews from hundreds of participating Canadian teachers and students, the WHERE Challenge is back for a second year. The WHERE Challenge is a national contest endorsed by the Canadian Earth Sciences community and sponsored by EnCana that asks students aged 10 – 14 years to discover the answers to these questions: What on Earth is in your stuff and WHERE on Earth does it come from? The Challenge launches in September 2009 and runs until March 1, 2010. Almost $17-thousand in regional and national prizes will be awarded. Students are encouraged to use their imaginations in their response and create an educational story about non-renewable Earth resources found in an everyday item.
