Published purpose
The POLAR Circumpolar Giant Floor Map (GFM) and Classroom Floor Maps (CFMs) program will see the creation of two GFMs and five CFMs. Two GFMs and three CFMs that will tour to schools across Canada for three years with a specific focus on reaching schools in Northern Canada. The additional two CFMs will be shipped to CHARS and Polar headquarters. Each GFM/CFM will tour with an accompanying kit of classroom activities and props that will bring the map to life and highlight important advances being made in Canadian Northern science and innovation.
