Morning Star
Rating
0.0 stars

Although it’s hard to replace the physical feeling of being inside the Canadian Museum of History, one virtual exhibit gives you the chance see a standout ceiling mural even closer than you can in person.
The circular painting, “Morning Star,” by Alex Janvier, decorates the ceiling of the dome of the Haida Gwaii Salon within the museum, towering above a bright white staircase. Online, you can zoom in on the mural and spin it to see the four quadrants in high detail. A click of the plus sign in the corner causes a series of links to pop up over the mural itself, with photos and videos attached that explain the significance of each part of the artwork.
Other exhibits listed in the museum’s “Online Exhibitions” section include a dedicated website explaining Inuit prints from Cape Dorset in Nunavut (with videos, interviews, pictures and interactive puzzle games to recreate prints yourself), and a clickable playhouse that has different “rooms” that lead viewers to different children’s toys from Canada’s past.

My Social Media Life Lesson from Common Sense Education
Rating
0.0 stars

This lesson should take about 45 minutes.

"For most middle-schoolers, being on social media can mean connecting with friends, sharing pictures, and keeping up to date. But it can also mean big-time distractions, social pressures, and more. Help students navigate the different feelings they may already be experiencing on social media.

Students will be able to:
*Identify the role of social media in students' lives.
*Reflect on the positive and negative effects of using social media on their relationships.
*Recognize "red flag feelings" when using social media, and consider ways to handle them."

Lesson slides, video, handouts, quiz, family engagement activities & family tips.

Native Studies 20 Development Project
Conditional Remix & Share Permitted

Rating
0.0 stars

In the past students had difficulty keeping their focus on academic
collaboration when using One Note. It was key for me to help the students
frame thought-provoking questions in their entries that would invite valuable
comments. Also when commenting, it was important that the students knew
the difference between social and academic writing. A true educational online
collaboration is not about socializing, but about students and teacher helping
each other grow in their learning. This was a different writing space than
students are accustomed to. At the end of this unit the students had explored
other student authored pages, talked about online safety, online identity and
cyber bullying and worked together to create a display showcasing their novel
study collaboration.

But with the right support, they can learn to be critical and not cynical -- to speak up, not sit back. This collection of news and media lessons, videos, printables, and more is a great place to start. Everything's been carefully vetted by Common Sense editors (and fellow teachers) to help you find that "just right" resource for your classroom.

Pan Inuit Trails Atlas
Rating
0.0 stars

This interactive Atlas focuses on historical written evidence of Inuit presence in most of the Canadian Arctic. It contains a selection of material obtained from hundreds of published and unpublished documents produced by explorers, ethnographers and other visitors who were in contact with Inuit during the early contact period or shortly before Inuit moved to permanent settlements. A very significant proportion of those trails and place names are still used today. The Atlas is a database, and the sources can be found through searches, or clicking on the features on the map. Each document has been given a geographic reference (which in some cases, it occupies the whole Canadian Arctic). Whenever possible Inuit place names and trails encountered in the documents were digitized separately.
