It's #AutismAcceptanceMonth - and we're celebrating meteorologist Frankie MacDonald.
In an interview with CBC Kids News, Frankie said, "Science is important because it helps us understand the world around us."

Happy #AutismAcceptanceMonth. We are honoring Temple Grandin. "We need to engage kids in hands-on activities that involve designing and building things, rather than just reading about science in textbooks. That's how you inspire the next generation of scientists and engineers."

April is #AutismAcceptanceMonth. Here's one of favorite STEM folks with Autism. "Every kid starts out as a natural-born scientist, and then we beat it out of them. A few trickle through the system with their wonder and enthusiasm for science intact." - Carl Sagan
