The tools for educators include: ~ Problems of the Month - The Problems of the Month are non-routine math problems designed to be used schoolwide to promote a problem-solving theme at your school. Each problem is divided into five levels of difficulty, Level A (primary) through Level E (high school), to allow access and scaffolding for students into different aspects of the problem and to stretch students to go deeper into mathematical complexity. ~ Jumpstart Guide for Practitioners - guide to accompany the Problems of the Month ~ Formative Re-engaging Lessons - Formative Re-Engaging Lessons involve a cycle of inquiry, instruction, assessment, analysis, selection, and re-engagement around a mathematical concept. Each Formative Re-Engaging Lesson includes a classroom video of the lesson, downloadable lesson plan, student pages, pre- and post-assessments, and supporting instructional materials. ~ Classroom Videos ~ Resources for Social and Emotional Learning in Mathematics Classrooms

Pixar's "Inside Out" is a movie that's all about feelings, and this makes it perfect for sparking discussions with kids about social and emotional learning. Since the central characters all embody a different emotion, students learn to see parts of themselves or their experiences in each character.
As we know, watching a movie can involve way more than just watching. Use the "Inside Out Movie Guide" (with lesson materials) to explore how joy and sadness can come together and make sense of the mess of our emotions.
(Grades 3–6)

This is a free student interactive notebook that sparks excitement, and takes learning to a new level.
This is a digital template you can use in Canva.
You'll have to provide your name and email to download the notebook, but you can unsubscribe at any time.
From Ditch That Textbook "Interactive notebooks have taken lots of classrooms everywhere by storm. The idea: a central space where students can create, write and make meaning.
When they’re done well, students get that spark of excitement. Learning goes to a different level.
When they’re done poorly, it becomes worksheets glued to pages.
Interactive notebooks don’t have to go in paper notebooks, though.
This is why we've partnered with Matt Miller and Ditch that Textbook to give you a digital interactive notebook made in Canva that incorporates EduProtocols. It's a win-win!"

As a pilot teacher for the new Physical Science 20 course, the challenge in the pilot year is to develop the course content to meet student interests and student needs, while meeting the outcomes indicated by the new curriculum. In an effort to teach outcomes and appropriate indicators, Aaron Biberdorf of Sun West Distance Learning Centre and I developed an action plan to find interactive or virtual labs for each outcome for the three major units of Physical Science 20. This would be most beneficial for the Distance Learning Centre, where students are studying a science course but may not have access to lab materials while working independently. Further, for students who are absent in a regular classroom and miss a lab, the virtual lab(s) could be an alternative assignment.
