There are a couple of ways to solve this real world word problem.
This task is a modeling problem which ties in to financial decisions faced routinely by businesses, namely the balance between maintaining inventory and raising short-term capital for investment or re-investment in developing the busines
«Durant la Semaine Canada en programmation, des élèves à l’échelle du pays programmeront ensemble pour déverrouiller le Monde des émojis et bâtir un monde meilleur pour tous les émojis.
L’année dernière, les élèves à l’échelle du Canada ont appris à programmer et rempli le Monde des émojis de milliers d’émojis de 💩 caca 💩. Malheureusement, ces émojis ont relâché trop de CO₂ et le Monde des émojis est maintenant exposé à des changements climatiques majeurs.
En tant que membre du personnel enseignant, vous serez aux commandes, et nous serons vos copilotes. Notre mission est de réduire les émissions de CO₂ causées par les milliers d’émojis de caca du projet de la Semaine Canada en programmation de l’année dernière.
Commencez dès maintenant en recevant nos plans de leçons en vedette directement dans votre boîte de réception. C’est le temps de programmer! 🚀»
The semitruck and trailer is what I would call a simple project. This is a project that student
could make in their 1st year of IA in grade 7 or 8, (I have had grade 12 students make the truck
and A or B-train.) When the students are making their project they are demonstrating to me that they have understood and follow the safety for each of the machines available using. In Mr.
Kurulak’s class you must watch the safety presentation/demo for each machine, and then write a safety exam for that machine earning at least an 80% on the 1st try, if the student does not pass it on the 1st try they must get 100% correct on any rewrites, whatever Mark they get on their 1st exam is what I count towards their report card marks, as I’m assuming at that point I am expecting you know that information.

In this pen and pencil activity, student teams use an inquiry approach to create their own model of the hydrological cycle. A calculator is needed for this activity. Teacher background information, assessment suggestions, and a scoring rubric are included.This is Activity 4 of the learning module, Global Balance, part of the lesson series, The Potential Consequences of Climate Variability and Change.
Cette sélection sert à sensibiliser les élèves aux difficultés que vivent les immigrantes et immigrants francophones dans leur pays d’origine ainsi qu’aux obstacles qu’ils rencontrent au Canada. Les réflexions qui suivront permettront de susciter une prise de conscience sociale et d’améliorer la compréhension de concepts comme la discrimination systémique et le profilage racial.
Les films de cette sélection comprennent :
De Sherbrooke à Brooks – Histoires d’un corridor migratoire
Médecins sans résidence
Au bout du fil
Une femme de tête
Une école sans frontières
La sensation haïtienne
Au nom de la mère et du fils
Haïti (Québec)
Zéro tolérance

Bagages
Students learn about electricity and air pollution while building devices to measure volatile organic compounds (VOC) by attaching VOC sensors to prototyping boards. In the second part of the activity, students evaluate the impact of various indoor air pollutants using the devices they made.
Students consider human senses and the many everyday human-made sensors so common in their lives. They learn about the three components of biosensorsâa special type of sensorâand their functions and importance. With this understanding, students identify various organs in the human body that behave as sensors, such as the pancreas. Using LEGO® MINDSTORMS® NXT robots, provided rbt robot programs and LEGO sensors (light, ultrasonic, sound, touch), students gain first-hand experience with sensors and come to see how engineer-designed sensors play important roles in our daily lives, informing people of their surroundings and ultimately improving our quality of life.
Students are introduced to several types of common medical sensor devices, such as ear and forehead thermometers, glucometers and wrist blood pressure monitors; they use the latter to measure their blood pressure and pulse rates. Students also measure their heights and weights in order to calculate their BMIs (body mass index). Then they use the collected data to create and analyze scatterplots of the different variables to determine if any relationships exist between the measured variables. Discussions about the trends observed and possible health concerns conclude the activity.
Students design and create sensory integration toys for young children with developmental disabilities an engineering challenge that combines the topics of biomedical engineering, engineering design and human senses. Students learn the steps of the engineering design process (EDP) and how to use it for problem solving. After learning about the human sensory system, student teams apply the EDP to their sensory toy projects. They design and make plans within given project constraints, choose materials, fabricate prototypes, evaluate the prototypes, and give and receive peer feedback. Students experience the entire design-build-test-redesign process and conclude with a class presentation in which they summarize their experiences with the EDP steps and their sensory toy project development.
Students will design a method that applies various chemistry techniques to separate a mixture by physical means to simulate how a scientist would mitigate contamination in a stream due to run-off.
Bravery and sacrifice defines our new nation, as war erupts across Europe. Canada, as a British Dominion, joins in the fight - a young country seeking to find its place on the world stage. It’s not long before nearly half a million Canadians, including thousands of Indigenous soldiers, travel to Europe to serve beside their allies in the First World War.

Preschool Games, Videos, & Coloring Pages to Help Kids Grow Smarter, Stronger & Kinder
With a mission to help kids meet critical early development needs — the program many of us grew up on is still going strong and providing online content and shows every weekday morning. Many parents will attest that “Sesame Street” is still one of the best resources for the pre-K and kindergarten set, as well as kids with special needs. You’ll find video, games and art projects online.
This modeling task involves several different types of geometric knowledge and problem-solving: finding areas of sectors of circles (G-C.5), using trigonometric ratios to solve right triangles (G-SRT.8), and decomposing a complicated figure involving multiple circular arcs into parts whose areas can be found (MP.7).
This art history video discussion looks at Georges Seurat, Bathers at Asnieres, 1884, oil on canvas (National Gallery, London).
This great website with all things Suess offers children the opportunity to play interactive games ("Play" tab) and view animated Dr. Suess stories ("Watch" tab), as well as purchase infamous Suess books, learn about Dr. Suess himself, find out about the Suess related world entertainment options and much, much more.
This task is intended to help model a concrete situation with geometry. Placing the seven pennies in a circular pattern is a concrete and fun experiment which leads to a genuine mathematical question: does the physical model with pennies give insight into what happens with seven circles in the plane?
This task provides a concrete geometric setting in which to study rigid transformations of the plane. It is important for students to be able to visualize and execute these transformations and for this purpose it would be beneficial to have manipulatives and it will important that the students be able to label the vertices of the hexagon with which they are working.
The Seven Sacred Laws is a colourful and imaginative animated web series that follows a young boy on an Indigenous rite of passage: a vision quest. On his spiritual journey, he meets seven sacred animals that teach him how we as people should live our lives on Mother Earth
In partnership with The Turtle Lodge International Centre for Indigenous Education and Wellness in Sagkeeng First Nation and IG Wealth Management, Manitoba 150 is honoured to present a series of short animated films on the Seven Sacred Laws. Written by Anishinaabe Elder, Dr. David Courchene, directed by Indigenous filmmaker, Erica Daniels of Peguis First Nation, and created by Manitoba’s Peg City Pictures Inc., the vignettes tell the stories of Indigenous Peoples in their own voices, in a format that is accessible not only for Indigenous people, but for all Manitobans.
