This multi-disciplinary resource features ten engaging lessons that focus on biodiversity and invasive species. An ecosystem approach provides an authentic context to help students understand what invasive species are and how these plants and animals can significantly impact the vital interdependence of organisms within habitats. Although developed to support the Grade 6 Life Sciences curriculum (Ontario), the strong English Language Arts, Math and Social Studies links make this resource applicable across a broad range of subject areas and grade levels.
In a combination of in-class and outdoor activities students will:
- Define and explore types of invasive species. - Identify how organisms interact within ecosystems. - Respond to media information about invasive species. - Explore a local habitat to find and catalogue native and non-native species. - Initiate action to inform the community about the prevention of the spread of invasive species.

This site offers instructional activities for irregular and high frequency words. Not all words use the most common phoneme-grapheme correspondences, but most words are at least partially decodable. Many words appear so frequently in text that children need to learn them before they have been taught the necessary phoneme-grapheme correspondences. The resources on this site provide a range of options for you to teach such words.

This is a 45 minute virtual field trip.
Learn about Canada’s ongoing human rights journey by engaging with Indigenous concepts of human rights and discovering how people have used and continue to use their voices and effective action to claim their rights. Our guides will take your students on an age‐appropriate and inspiring journey while helping them to see how these stories continue to be relevant and ongoing in Canada today. We’ll help your students walk away with a greater understanding of human rights and how the impacts of colonialism and racism continue to affect life in Canada.
Students will: • Learn that human rights protections in Canada were fought for and won through the effective actions and voices of many groups and individuals. • Experience exhibits and the inspiring Museum architecture as if they were at the Museum in person. • Interact with a Museum guide and their classmates to deepen their understanding of equality and human rights. • Engage in discussion, critical thinking and reflection on how colonialism and racism have ongoing impacts on the rights of people living in Canada today.

So let's train our brains to find the joy. You can learn more about the science behind this at our events this month too (details below the calendar)."
