This short video and interactive assessment activity is designed to teach fourth graders about subtracting lengths in meters.

Students explore the relationships between genetics, biodiversity, and evolution through a simple activity involving hypothetical wild mouse populations. First, students toss coins to determine what traits a set of mouse parents possesses, such as fur color, body size, heat tolerance, and running speed. Next they use coin tossing to determine the traits a mouse pup born to these parents possesses. These physical features are then compared to features that would be most adaptive in several different environmental conditions. Finally, students consider what would happen to the mouse offspring if those environmental conditions were to change: which mice would be most likely to survive and produce the next generation?

Michel Tremblay, l’auteur des Belles-sœurs, célèbre ses 75 ans. Son œuvre, 27 pièces de théâtre et autant de romans, est traduite en 40 langues. Il est un monument de la littérature d’ici qui rayonne partout sur la planète. L’animatrice Anne-Marie Dussault, qui se trouve sur la scène du Théâtre du Nouveau Monde à Montréal où se joue actuellement la comédie musicale Demain matin, Montréal m’attend, s’entretient avec Michel Tremblay. Le dramaturge et écrivain explique avec le recul quel a été le fil conducteur de son œuvre et comment il a su se fier à son imagination, prêtant à ses personnages des aventures qu’il ne s’était pas permises à lui-même et voyageant à l’intérieur des autres. Selon lui, les premières expressions d’un artiste, ce qui le fait écrire, viendraient de ses problèmes; pour lui, ce fut son homosexualité à l’adolescence, qu’il a exprimée dans son premier livre Contes pour buveurs attardés. Épisode du 25 juin 2017.
