An interactive applet and associated web page that demonstrate the concept of parallel lines. The applet shows two lines, one of which has draggable endpoints. As the line is changed by dragging them, the other line changes to remain parallel to it. Applet can be enlarged to full screen size for use with a classroom projector. This resource is a component of the Math Open Reference Interactive Geometry textbook project at http://www.mathopenref.com.

An interactive applet and associated web page that demonstrate the properties of parallel lines in coordinate geometry. The applet presents two lines, each defined by a pair of draggable points. If they are parallel the slopes are the same and the applet adds the parallel arrow marks to them. The slope of each line is continuously recalculated and the case of vertical lines (with undefined slope) is handled correctly. The is a software 'detent' that snaps the lines to parallel if they are close to it. The grid, axis pointers and coordinates can be turned on and off. The slope calculation can be turned off to permit class exercises and then turned back on the verify the answers. The applet can be printed as it appears on the screen to make handouts. The web page has a full description of the method for determining if lines are parallel, a worked example and has links to other pages relating to coordinate geometry. Applet can be enlarged to full screen size for use with a classroom projector.

A web page and interactive applet showing the definition and properties of a parallelogram. The applet shows a parallelogram where the user can drag any vertex. The other points then move in such a way that the figure remains a parallelogram at all times. A control to hide the details allows a classroom discussion where students can try to infer what the properties are as it is reshaped by the discussion leader. Text on the page has the formal definition and properties of the parallelogram with links to related pages. A companion page is http://www.mathopenref.com/parallelogramarea.html showing the ways to calculate the area of a parallelogram Applet can be enlarged to full screen size for use with a classroom projector.

Une leçon au sujet du Parc national Forillon qui inclut une leçon et des documents à télécharger.

This site is full of resources about literacy for parents and their children. Information is divided into birth-Prek, K-3, 4-6 and 7-12.

Each section contains informational sites for parents, as well as activities students can do at home to improve their literacy skills.

If parents did these 5 simple things they would greatly improve their child's readiness for school and reading. These suggestions come from a former Reading Recovery Teacher and a mother of a very early reader.

This is a resource that shows how parliament in Canada works. It outlines the different levels of government responsibility.

"Aperçu : Il s'agit de l'une des meilleures ressources scientifiques pour la maternelle à la 12e année !

Des ressources sont disponibles pour les niveaux préscolaire à la 12e année, comprenant de nombreux articles et vidéos destinés aux élèves pour explorer les nombreux concepts scientifiques enseignés en classe.

Vous pouvez :
*Réserver une visite éducative d'un scientifique pour enseigner les STEM (science, technologie, ingénierie et mathématiques) à votre classe.

*Inscrire vos élèves de la 6e à la 8e année à des événements d'enrichissement compétitifs en équipe.

*Utiliser CurioCity avec les élèves de la 8e à la 12e année pour en apprendre davantage sur les carrières STEM, l'espace et d'innombrables autres sujets grâce à des vidéos. Vous pouvez également vous inscrire et obtenir d'incroyables ressources STEM (en anglais ou en français) gratuitement ! (Elles sont même alignées sur le programme d'études de la Saskatchewan !)

*Visiter Ideapark pour les élèves de la maternelle à la 3e année afin de vous inscrire et d'obtenir accès à une multitude de ressources STEM gratuites.

*Vous inscrire à Tomatosphère pour étudier les effets de l'espace sur la germination des graines avec votre classe. Tomatosphère™ est un programme pratique qui développe les compétences d'investigation scientifique et d'expérimentation."

**Cette ressource s'attache à la majorité de RAs pour l'immersion en français.

«Inscrivez-vous pour une visite virtuelle de 45 minutes, puis suivez-la avec une unité en classe sur les droits de l'homme et le rôle d'intervenant. L'unité en classe comprend un projet d'investigation.

Visite virtuelle :

Les élèves apprendront à être des intervenants en droits de l'homme en découvrant les histoires de personnes qui ont utilisé leurs forces personnelles pour défendre leurs droits et les droits des autres, créant ainsi un changement.

Les élèves vont :

1. Apprendre à identifier les traits communs à tous les intervenants et comprendre que chacun de nous possède également ces traits de manière unique.

2. Découvrir les expositions et l'architecture inspirante du musée comme s'ils étaient physiquement présents.
Interagir avec un guide du musée et poser des questions pour mieux comprendre comment ils peuvent agir pour un changement positif.

3. Participer à des discussions, à la réflexion critique et à l'évaluation de leur rôle dans la protection de leurs propres droits et des droits des autres.

Unité en classe :

La ressource "Soyez un Intervenant" est une unité d'apprentissage basée sur des projets conçue pour compléter le programme scolaire "Passez à l'action". Cette ressource cible les élèves de l'intermédiaire et encourage l'investigation et l'action sur les questions de droits de l'homme. Les élèves examineront les traits des intervenants en droits de l'homme et suivront leur exemple. À la fin du projet, les élèves auront eu l'occasion d'explorer une question qui les passionne personnellement, de partager leurs connaissances et de guider les autres vers l'action.

Le site web "Passez à l'action" est une expérience numérique conçue pour soutenir l'apprentissage des élèves dans le cadre d'une unité d'apprentissage basée sur des projets axée sur les droits de l'homme. Les élèves qui développent des projets d'intervenants participeront à une enquête personnelle et à une action sur les questions de droits de l'homme qui leur tiennent à cœur. Les élèves apprendront les traits des intervenants en droits de l'homme, seront introduits à la Déclaration universelle des droits de l'homme et examineront leurs forces personnelles. En suivant l'exemple des intervenants dont ils apprennent l'histoire, les élèves seront mis au défi de prendre des mesures tangibles pour devenir eux-mêmes des intervenants en droits de l'homme.

The Penny Hoarder's goal is to teach financial skills for life, so it's a great place for students to learn about responsible money-handling. From coupon deals to earning side cash to smart budgeting and managing debt, The Penny Hoarder will increase your financial literacy on all levels. There's also an on-site academy where you can learn the basics of financial topics, such as managing credit, budgeting, and more.

A web page and interactive applet illustrating the properties of a pentagon (5 sided polygon). The applet shows a pentagon where the user can drag any vertex to reshape it. User can see that the interior and exterior angles are constant in a regular pentagon, but vary in an irregular version. Controls allow the display or hiding of the diagonals, and triangles within the pentagon. The web page lists the properties of a pentagon including interior angles, exterior angles, sum of exterior angles, area, number of diagonals and number of internal triangles. Links to pages with generalized properties of all polygons. Applet can be enlarged to full screen size for use with a classroom projector.

This informational text explores how the Inupiat of Alaska's northwest have adapted to changing climate conditions throughout the past and present. The changes impact how close to the ocean they live and how easily they can hunt bowhead whales to maintain their lifestyle. The text is written at a kindergarten through grade one reading level. This is a PDF containing the informational text.

Perfectionism is not necessarily about being ‘perfect’. Ask yourself this question… Is it ever really possible to be 100% ‘perfect’? So, if it’s not about being ‘perfect’, then what do we mean when talk about perfectionism?
Although there’s no perfect definition, we understand perfectionism to involve three things: Firstly, the relentless striving for extremely high standards for yourself and/or others that are personally demanding. Secondly, judging your self-worth based largely on your ability to strive for and achieve such unrelenting standards. Thirdly, experiencing negative consequences of setting such demanding standards, yet continuing to go for them despite the huge cost to you.
