Incorporate Higher Levels of Critical Thinking in the ELA 8 Environment
Conditional Remix & Share Permitted
CC BY-NC-SA
Rating
0.0 stars

My action plan is currently focusing on including questions for deeper understanding (Blooms Taxonomy) in both Science and ELA 8. I wanted to also focus on using the 6 Thinking Hats of Debono alongside Blooms Taxonomy question in ELA to guide but not direct discussion on specific topics (Black Negative, Yellow Positive, Blue control, etc.) as well as integrating basic technology into PE games (Heart rate monitors, mileage/stepper counters during activity to measure distance covered, etc.) with a focus on eventually using more in depth tech in PE (QR codes, etc.)

"Votre classe pourrait diriger un rover lunaire lors d’une mission simulée!
Il y aura des rovers canadiens sur la Lune d’ici la fin de la décennie. Parlons sciences, Canadensys Aerospace et Avalon Space unissent leurs efforts pour donner aux jeunes Canadiens de la 6e à la 9e année (3e secondaire) l’occasion d’en apprendre davantage sur la technologie des rovers et sur la façon de planifier des missions sur la Lune.

Le Défi de recherche du rover lunaire invite des équipes d’élèves à présenter leur plan de mission pour courir la chance de contrôler à distance un rover Canadensys dans un environnement de type lunaire."

Literature Circles in Lord of the Flies
Conditional Remix & Share Permitted
CC BY-NC-SA
Rating
0.0 stars

For my artifact, I incorporated literature circles into the reading of the novel, Lord
of the Flies. The first step in this process was to introduce the roles to the students and
to explain what was expected of them. Then, I split the students into their groups of four
using a random group generator (groups can be adjusted based on numbers, but four
worked best in my class). Once students knew what was expected of them, they talked
with their group members to determine who was doing what role for the first two
chapters. From there, we would read two chapters and I would allow the students time
to complete their role sheet (I also encouraged them to do this as they were reading
along, especially for quotes and vocab) and then they would meet with their group to
share their role with the other members. As the teacher, I would circulate between the
groups while they were sharing to listen to them and to provide any input/clarifications.
We would then repeat this process after each two chapters (there are 12 chapters in
total in the novel).

Living Space - Let's Talk Science
Rating
0.0 stars

"Participating classes will explore how indoor environmental conditions influence human health, and identify the best conditions for healthy living. This knowledge is important not only on Earth, but also on the International Space Station (ISS), the future Lunar Gateway, and as long-duration space travel progresses, maybe even on Mars!"

"Students and educators will study the key environmental conditions that are monitored and managed to keep astronauts healthy on the ISS. Students will measure environmental conditions such as temperature, CO2, and relative humidity in their classroom and submit the data to a national database. After developing their understanding of optimal ranges, and collecting data on their current environment, students will make a plan for classroom environmental improvement. The national Living Space database allows students to compare their classroom data with information from other participating classrooms in Canada as well as data from the ISS!"

Lunar Rover Research Challenge (Gr. 6 GAP Focus) - Let's Talk Science
Rating
0.0 stars

Win the chance for your class to operate a Lunar Rover in a simulated mission. There will be Canadian rovers on the Moon by the end of this decade. Let’s Talk Science, Canadensys Aerospace, and Avalon Space have teamed up to give Canadian youth in Grades 6-9 the opportunity to learn about rover technology and how to plan missions on the Moon.

The Lunar Rover Research Challenge invites teams of students to pitch their mission plans for the chance to remotely operate a Canadensys rover in a lunar-like environment.

Welcome to the Lunar Rover Research Challenge!

The challenge is for students to design a rover mission to find frozen water at the South Pole of the Moon. The activity is structured as a collaborative board game or digital game where students are guided through the design process. They equip their rover with scientific instruments, choose a target, then determine where to take measurements.

The experience is designed around 5 lessons:

1: Learn about Canada’s role in the upcoming lunar missions and the benefits of space exploration to life on Earth
2: Review the mission brief and learn how to plan a rover mission on the Moon
3: Plan the mission using an iterative design process scaffolded as a collaborative board game
4: Communicate ideas and prepare for submission
5: Reflect on the team’s experience and the impact of space exploration on society

Set in the context of space exploration, this project develops students’ design thinking, teamwork, and communication skills. Students must design their research mission by considering pros and cons, and weighing risks and rewards.

This challenge can be completed without a submission to the competition.

*For every unit in Math I gave students a problem that did not have one right
answer, but many possible answers.
*Students were given a question on Monday and given time to research information
over the week.
*On Friday, the students were put into groups to discuss their findings. As a group
they needed to decide what information did they think made the best sense to use
for the problem.
*The group presented their answer to the class and explained why their group
chose to answer the question in the way that they did.

PAA 7-12: Cupcake Color Wheel
Unrestricted Use

Rating
0.0 stars

The Cupcake Color Wheel activity provides a meaningful, memorable way for students to study Color Theory. Used in my Practical and Applied Arts 10- Survey class, it is part of the Interior Design module. Through this activity, students learn color terminology, mixing colors, and gain knowledge and understanding in the concepts of complementary colors, values, and chroma. If this activity is completed as part of a Food Studies class, it provides students an opportunity to gain knowledge and skills in the kitchen basics, and in the preparation of cakes and frostings.
