A series of videos and links to information with everything you need to help your students learn about the Legislative Assembly in Saskatchewan!
Students explore the many different ways that engineers provide natural lighting to interior spaces. They analyze various methods of daylighting by constructing model houses from foam core board and simulating the sun with a desk lamp. Teams design a daylighting system for their model houses based on their observations and calculations of the optimal use of available sunlight to their structure.

PLANS DE LEÇON
Dans quelle mesure l’identité (personnelle et nationale) est-elle façonnée par le conflit? Telle est la question au centre des cinq leçons composant le programme éducatif élaboré pour De Vimy à Juno : Les Canadiens durant deux Guerres mondiales. Utilisées ensemble, ces leçons guideront vos élèves à travers un parcours visant à comprendre l’identité – la leur et celle de leur pays – et à identifier les acteurs historiques qui l’ont influencée. Voici une vue d’ensemble de chacune des leçons :
LEÇON 1 – IDENTITÉ PERSONNELLE
LEÇON 2 – IDENTITÉ CANADIENNE ET GRAND RÉCIT DU CANADA
LEÇON 3 – EXPÉRIENCES CANADIENNES INDIVIDUELLES
LEÇON 4 – CONCEPTION D’UN PÈLERINAGE
LEÇON 5 – CONCEPTION D’UN MÉMORIAL
This activity deals with teaching kids to deal with stress.
1. Kids write what is causing him or her stress on a white sheet of paper.
2. They crumple it up.
3. What do we want to do with stress? Get rid of it! Throw it! Kids have a snowball fight.
4. Pick up one ball after the fight & share it. Discuss how to help that student.
5. Reflect at the end.
Students write persuasive letters to their librarian requesting that specific texts be added to the school library. As they work, students plan their arguments and outline their reasons and examples.
As the Roman Empire fell, so did the theater. If there's anyone who hates theater and actors more than Romans, it's early Christians. As Christianity ascended in the west, theater declined. But, fear not. This isn't the end of the series. Theater would be back, and in the best subversive theater-y fashion, it would return via the Catholic mass!

Students learn about and practice converting between fractions, decimals and percentages. Using a LEGO® MINDSTORMS® NXT robot and a touch sensor, each group inputs a fraction of its choosing. Team members convert this same fraction into a decimal, and then a percentage via hand calculations, and double check their work using the NXT robot. Then they observe the robot moving forward and record that distance. Students learn that the distance moved is a fraction of the full distance, based on the fraction that they input, so if they input ½, the robot moves half of the original distance. From this, students work backwards to compute the full distance. Groups then compete in a game in which they are challenged to move the robot as close as possible to a target distance by inputting a fraction into the NXT bot.

"Teachers use Deck.Toys to create interactive lessons for their students.
A deck is created by the teacher with paths and activities for students to follow. Media may be included in the deck with options to assess students along the path using apps that allow for varied types of responses offering a fun learning experience. Easily integrates into Google Classroom or share a link with the class. Can be used with all different age groups." (AASL)
There are premade decks available, and you can also make your own. Teachers can sign up for free with their Microsoft 360 account. (Sun West teachers just use your school email.)
This is an activity about the declining strength of Earth's magnetic field. Learners will review a graph of magnetic field intensity and calculate the amount by which the field has changed its intensity in the last century, the rate of change of its intensity, and when the field should decrease to zero strength at the current rate of change. Learners will also use evidence from relevant sources to create a conjecture on the effects on Earth of a vanished magnetic field. Access to information sources about Earth's magnetic field strength is needed for this activity. This is Activity 7 in the Exploring Magnetism on Earth teachers guide.
This lesson uses clips from "The Matrix" and other dystopian movies to introduce students to the characteristics found in dystopian works, such as "Brave New World", "Fahrenheit 451", and "1984".
This lesson uses the Ň1984Ó Macintosh Commercial to introduce students to dystopian characteristics. Students analyze techniques used in the commercial and identify the comments that it makes about contemporary society.
In which John Green teaches you about the post-World War II breakup of most of the European empires. As you'll remember from previous installments of Crash Course, Europeans spent several centuries sailing around the world creating empires, despite the fact that most of the places they conquered were perfectly happy to carry on alone. After World War II, most of these empires collapsed. This is the story of those collapses. In most places, the end of empire was not orderly, and violence often ensued. While India was a (sort of) shining example of non-violent change, in places like The Congo, Egypt, Rwanda, Vietnam, Cambodia, and Laos, things didn't go smoothly at all. John brings you all this, plus pictures of Sea Monkeys. Sadly, they don't look anything like those awesome commercials in the comic books.
