An interactive applet and associated web page that demonstrate the diagonals of a polygon. The applet shows a polygon with the diagonals drawn. The user can drag any vertex, make it regular or irregular, and change the number of sides. The applet continually computes and displays the number of diagonals. The text on the web page has the relevant formulae. Applet can be enlarged to full screen size for use with a classroom projector.

«Bonjour à tous and welcome to Easy French Poetry where I read some of the most Classic French Poems. I will read them twice: once slowly - so you may repeat after me - and once at a more natural reading pace. I will sometimes also talk about the life of the author, explain the vocabulary or do an analysis of the text using simple, everyday French. You will find the full text of the poems accompanied by the audio on my website FrenchToday.com as well as much more audio material such as The Easy French Poetry Readings and Analysis series, Classic French Tales, French Verb Drills, reachable audio novels...»

The Prairie Climate Centre and Climate Atlas of Canada is an interactive tool that combines climate science, mapping, and storytelling to make the global issue of climate change more relatable and encourages action at local, regional, and national levels. It’s a unique tool that integrates web design, climatology, cinema, and cartography to connect data with personal experiences

Users can explore maps, graphs, and data for provinces, regions, and cities, with clear explanations to make climate science easy to understand. The Atlas also features documentary videos with local and Indigenous knowledge holders, offering personal perspectives on climate change.

Attention Saskatchewan high school science teachers!

Looking for some FREE resources and opportunities that will connect the curriculum with real-world applications as it pertains to: health and wellness; medicine, nursing, & biomedical engineering?

Check out these 3 resources for science teachers to use to help reach students who might be interested in healthcare careers (these are available gratis):

1. Science teacher hub that gives teachers access to 50+ resources that they can use in the classroom (medical mystery cases, mentorship videos, what different medical specialists do etc..) (https://www.premedskl.com/teacherhub/)

2. Quarterly Medical Bs for high school students - which are case-based competitions (think Jeopardy meets WebMD!). (https://www.premedskl.com/medicalb/)

3. IDEA Scholarships to PreMedSKL, a 1-year advanced curriculum and mentorship program for high school students interested in exploring a career in medicine and healthcare. The IDEA Scholarship is for students from communities that are traditionally under-represented in medicine (ie Indigenous, Black, LatinX and other communities).

This newly updated digital course educates students about the potential dangers of misusing prescription medications, including fentanyl. The course – developed in partnership with Truth Initiative, the public health organization behind the nationally recognized truth® youth tobacco prevention and education campaign – explores the impact misuse can have on teens' physical and mental health, relationships, communities, and futures. The tone and design of the updated course is more youth-led and easier to digest by teens with brand new content addressing the dangers of fentanyl and counterfeit drugs.

While many elementary and middle school educators teach their students about Africa, finding age-appropriate primary sources and related activities is often a challenge, particularly when looking at early African cultures. Many available lessons focus only on African works of art, such as masks, that are difficult for children in US classrooms to relate to their own lives and experiences, further solidifying the conception of an American "us" and a very different African "them." Others frame Africa as a monolithic culture frozen in time, ignoring the reality of this diverse and rapidly modernizing continent. Each of the primary sources and activities included in this cluster has been carefully chosen to serve four main purposes: to introduce students to a specific region of Africa and to the distinctive culture of the people who have inhabited it, to show how three unique African societies draw on their natural and human resources to store and communicate their histories and values, to explain how mnemonic devices created long ago still play a crucial role in many African societies, and to underscore the importance of cultural preservation across all societies and all times.

Primary source collections exploring topics in history, literature, and culture developed by educators — complete with teaching guides for class use.

A page that allows you to print rectangular (cartesian) graph paper. You ca control if grid lines are printed and the position of the origin. By dargging the origin into any corner a single quadrant can be printed. This resource is a component of the Math Open Reference Interactive Geometry textbook project at http://www.mathopenref.com.

Growers, packing centers, and retailers rely on one another to prevent contamination and keep consumers safe. Four animations illustrate how contamination can spread from field to table and suggest ways to avoid this. Applicable to various tree and ground fruits including cantaloupe, cucumbers, and strawberries, the animations follow the lifespan of an imaginary "purple fruit," highlighting danger points at each stage of the process and suggesting best practices for keeping produce free from contamination. Although the animations are brief, they include "Pause Points" (recommended spots to pause the video) where a presenter can discuss, distribute additional materials or reinforce learning during a training.

These pre-recorded videos will provide teachers with the framework needed to complete an inquiry-based project with their students.

There are videos for each of the grade groups: K-3, 4-6, 7-8, plus a video on teacher professional learning.

The goal of this publication is to honour the 150,000 Aboriginal children across Canada who endured the Indian Residential School system and their families, while educating Canadians about the atrocious history and ongoing legacy of residential schools.

This article attempts to declutter proportionality by having students think about varying quantities and to investigate patterns so they can describe quantities in terms of proportional relationships. Students encounter proportional relationships in their everyday world, and the article provides examples of where these relationships surface and how we can approach building strong ways of thinking. The power of modeling with mathematics is highlighted.

An interactive applet and associated web page that illustrate Pythagoras' Theorem. The applet shows a right triangle that can be resized by dragging any vertex. As it is being dragged the formula is continuously recalculated to show that the the theorem always holds for any right triangle. The formula can be turned off to facilitate classroom discussions. Applet can be enlarged to full screen size for use with a classroom projector.
