The "For Kids" section contains information about the northern countries. On this site, students can be a detective, looking at images and writing about and by people of the North to try to discover the story they tell. Or, they can look at exhibits, where other people have told one story based on the same information.
Resources for teachers includes questions, activities, and points to other sites which may be of interest to students and of assistance in developing your lesson plans. In some cases, references can be linked directly back to one of the exhibits created specifically for this site. Additionally, there are links to other resources which may be of use.

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.

Numeracy is having the confidence and habits of mind to use mathematics to meet the general demands of everyday life. Being a numerate person means using mathematics to make sense of something new and know what mathematics can and cannot do.
Numeracy provides First Nations, Métis and Inuit students the opportunity to discover connections on their own and apply strategies to solve real life problems. Throughout history, First Nations, Métis and Inuit peoples have used real life traditional learning contexts to connect to their world.
In the Empowering the Spirit video series, students explore numeracy through Traditional Games, an elementary math class on probability and a high school physics class examining the structure of a tee pee and rocket nozzle.

"The learning resources created for the numeracy project include:
*a document that identifies a big idea in a curricular outcome, questions for classroom instruction for student assessment, sample answers shown concretely, pictorially and symbolically and connecting outcomes;
*reference documents that provide further information or resources;
*additional questions across multiple grades for each big idea found in a progression document; and, short videos.
The numeracy project is a curriculum, instruction and assessment support for mathematics. The learning supports are aligned directly to Saskatchewan curricular outcomes."

Science Background: Substances like Silly Putty are part of a class of materials called polymers. Like other molecules, polymers are compounds, but they are large and may contain tens of thousands of atoms. Compare this, for example, to water, a compound of hydrogen and oxygen that contains three atoms. A good way to visual the difference between small molecules (like water) and polymers (also called macromolecules) is to think of the size difference between a crystal of salt (small) and a strand of spaghetti (larger and longer). Like the strand of spaghetti, polymers are long chains of molecules strung together. These strands can also be tangled up to create a giant mess of polymer chains.
