This is a paper on oral language in relation to Reading Recovery.
Information on the record of oral language is contained, as well as the paper to administer it to students to determine what they can control with regards to oral language.

In small groups, students were to create a piece of art out of
recycled materials. Students were given creative freedom to design, plan,
and build their projects.

CCMI’s (CENTRAL CARIBBEAN MARINE INSTITUTE) education team has developed a transformational, interactive education programme using Virtual Live Experiences (VLEs) methods to connect students and the public to real-time coral reef activity, in an informal science setting. Scientists use high tech face masks and streaming computer equipment to deliver live lessons from the underwater and lab environment. Innovative technology enables VLEs to reduce barriers to learning by communicating interactive ‘real-life’ experiences in an informal, scalable science setting.

Register to take part in the Reefs Go Live Broadcasts, which include curriculum-relevant lessons and student worksheets (student and teacher versions).

15 reflection questions for learners of all ages. These are very useful for professional development as well as for students.

This story follows Reggie as he explores the different types of technology used in the agriculture industry.

Today we’re going to create memory! Using the basic logic gates we discussed in episode 3 we can build a circuit that stores a single bit of information, and then through some clever scaling (and of course many new levels of abstraction) we’ll show you how we can construct the modern random-access memory, or RAM, found in our computers today. RAM is the working memory of a computer. It holds the information that is being executed by the computer and as such is a crucial component for a computer to operate. Next week we’ll use this RAM, and the ALU we made last episode, to help us construct our CPU - the heart of a computer.

Today we're going to introduce one of the most flexible statistical tools - the General Linear Model (or GLM). GLMs allow us to create many different models to help describe the world - you see them a lot in science, economics, and politics. Today we're going to build a hypothetical model to look at the relationship between likes and comments on a trending YouTube video using the Regression Model. We'll be introducing other popular models over the next few episodes.

To continue to raise awareness and showcase our love for one another a colouring book was created.

This initiative brought together Indigenous artists of all ages to contribute their work that focuses on Indigenous culture, safety, and honouring those affected by MMIWG2S+.

You can come to this site and watch Reindeer live on camera! Santa even makes appearances to feed them. Apparently you can catch elves or the Grinch from time to time as well!

You can check to see if you are on the nice list!

You can also come here to listen to Santa read stories. How cool is it to have Santa read you a bedtime story?

This would be a good creative writing or journal entry prompt for ELA as well.

Visit this Saskatchewan based site that offers lots of great lessons/units that focus mainly on integrating Aboriginal science and technology with the provincial science curriculum.

Relevance is an annual magazine providing career and labour market information for Saskatchewan youth. Available in print and online. Discussion guide for class exploration or assessment available.

Today we’re turning our sociological eye to another major social institution: religion. We’ll use symbolic interactionism to help us understand the dichotomy of the Sacred vs. the Profane. We’ll compare the perspectives of structural functionalists and conflict theorists on whether religion improves social cohesiveness or increases social stratification. We’ll also explore how religious practice in the US differs across race and class lines.

Introducing your students to art is a great way to inspire, evoke curiosity, and encourage deeper conversations about the world around us. Remai Modern offers resources and activities specially designed for educators and students to help kickstart a lifelong appreciation and love of art. Remai Modern has two educational experiences for teachers to explore:

Select a Highlights Tour, featuring not-to-be-missed objects currently on view; or a Picasso Tour, with a focus on our collection of Picasso linocuts and ceramic works in historic and modern context.

Connecting exhibitions to curriculum needs of teachers and students, Remai Modern School Tours demonstrate that art crosses disciplines and is relevant to daily life.

In these tours, students can: Compare and contrast original works of art and build critical viewing skills,
Understand the ideas of a wide variety of professional historical and contemporary art/artists, Practice inquiry-based and hands-on learning, and Develop a lifelong appreciation for art.

Secondly, Book a Remai Modern Online Workshop!
Remai Modern’s online art workshops build on the success of the museum’s in-person programs for students. Workshops promote informal learning through viewing, discussing, and making art and create chances for students to better understand themselves, their peers, and their community.

Missing children and the existence of unmarked burial sites at Residential Schools across Canada have been well-known for decades among Indigenous communities. However, Canadians are still grappling with the truths about Residential Schools, spurring long-overdue conversations inside and outside the classroom.

Remembering the Children, the National Centre for Truth and Reconciliation’s publication for students, offers a way to begin those conversations. It takes readers to a variety of Residential Schools across time and space, opening a door into a past that reverberates today, while also celebrating the resilience and resurgence of First Nations, Inuit and Métis peoples’ culture.
