Welcome!! The student take ownership in this activity that encourages creativity, voice, and choice. My students have told me that often this is the highlight of the year!

Toolkit for Promoting Empathy
Rating
0.0 stars

"Download our Toolkit for Promoting Empathy in Schools. You can download the toolkit in Spanish, French, and Korean, too.

The Start Empathy Toolkit is the product of interviews with more than 60 educators and leading social entrepreneurs. We asked quite simply, “What works?” We wanted to know what it would take to create a classroom where kids’ social and emotional needs are met and how to cultivate the kinds of skills that are critical for success in today’s (and tomorrow’s) world. The result is not a prescription or a formula, or a silver-bullet fix. Consider this a living set of tools: tools that will grow and evolve over time, as each of us adds our own. We encourage you to think beyond your classroom walls to what it takes to mobilize your entire school community. Together, let’s creatively reimagine what changemaking education can look like.

The toolkit contains the combined wisdom of dozens of teachers, organizations, and people who live this everyday: tips and tools, lesson plans and examples, and, most importantly, insights that can help inform everything from how you design your classroom to your daily interactions with students and colleagues. Some exercises can be done in as little as two minutes, while others can take the form of months-long class projects, applied to a range of subjects. Others simply offer a strategy you can adapt to your existing lesson plans, and tips that are proven to improve teacher and student performance alike. Some you may be familiar with, and others may be new. We invite you to test these in your classroom, and use them to generate ideas of your own."

Using Padlet to Practice Sight Words

Rating
0.0 stars

Activity Description During my 21stCE meeting with Carole Butcher, I was introduced to Padlet and I immediately saw an application for it in my primary level classroom which is k-3. Although the way we are using it may not be how Padlet is intended to be used, it works great the activity we’ve named Snack Words! Every day before snack time in the morning, each student takes a turn at the Smart Board finding and moving a word they know. They touch and slide the words from one side of the board to the other. After they have had their turn with the Snack Words board, they are allowed to get their snack. I use my discretion about which words they should be able to read and ask them to choose more than one if the word they’ve chosen is too easy for them.

Visually Representing the Emotional Path of a Character
Conditional Remix & Share Permitted

Rating
0.0 stars

Students recently studied a longer text and I wanted a cumulative project for them to demonstrate skills of Representing. I had seen a poster that showed paint chip colours to represent the highs and lows of parenting, with the emotional journey going from being a new parent to more experienced parent. I loved the idea of having to identify the changes of a person’s experience and represent it through colour, so we used that poster as inspiration for this project in ELA.
Students had to review the plot events of the movie, identify x number of specific events (we picked 21 so it was thorough), and then choose the colour they individually felt best represented how the character would have felt during that event. For example, at one point the character is accused of being a Communist sympathizer; students could have identified dark colours to relay the tension the character would have felt in that moment. Because students used an app for the project, they created unique colours, rather than just picking blue or yellow; their yellow was their own tone of yellow, so the individualization of each image is absolutely unique.

Word Wall Cards with Pictures
Conditional Remix & Share Permitted

Rating
0.0 stars

The purpose of the Mathematics Word Wall is to identify words and phrases
that students need to understand and use so as to make good progress in
mathematics. Mathematical language is crucial to children's development of
thinking. If students do not have the vocabulary to talk about math
concepts and skills, they cannot make progress in understanding these areas
of mathematical knowledge. They need to be familiar with mathematical
vocabulary and mathematical terms to understand written and spoken
instructions.
A structured approach to the teaching and learning of mathematical
vocabulary is essential if students are to begin using the correct
mathematical terminology.

Work Place and Apprenticeship Math 30- What Bank To Use When Starting A Small Business

In this lesson student will be developing an idea for a possible small business that they would like to start and run. Once they have developed an idea for a business they will have to research what services different financial institutions offered in their area, or the province. Once they have finished seeing what services are out there, students will then have to decide what institution they would like to use, and determine what requirements they need to meet from the bank. Depending on how much time you would like to spend on this you could have students even come up with a loan proposal and a business plan as well. This can be done in partners or the students can work on the alone as well.
