"This month we're encouraging you to get active, get outdoors and take care of your body! Let's reap the benefits of getting our bodies moving and breathing more deeply as a result of exercising, laughing and even singing! We don't all need to run marathons - there are simple things we can all do to take care of our bodies - for example unplugging from technology, getting outside and - importantly - making sure we get enough sleep!"

Kindergarten children are usually familiar with beginning sound "ABC" books with texts such as "A is for apple. "In this activity, repeated for each consonant letter, art, writing, conventional spelling, and reading are combined to create a personal "Letter Book" for each child.

This website is full of many different math games for kids, covering all different areas of math.

Here is another Seesaw activity I created that involves counting to 10 and beyond and being active.

Following are a series of activities in which students apply various math skills to better understand the problems of world hunger and what steps are being taken to reduce the number of people without enough to eat. This is Activity #1 of 5 in this lesson.

Following are a series of activities in which students apply various math skills to better understand the problems of world hunger and what steps are being taken to reduce the number of people without enough to eat. This activity makes use of basic math skills to learn more about the energy value of food. A link to the US Dept. of Agriculture National Nutrient Database is listed here. Teachers may want to browse through the database first and determine the best way to present it to students: let them explore the entire database or make a condensed chart for students to reference. This activity is #5 of 5 in this lesson.

Following are a series of activities in which students apply various math skills to better understand the problems of world hunger and what steps are being taken to reduce the number of people without enough to eat. This actions looks at probability from the perspective of reducing child mortality. This is Activity #4 of 5 in this lesson.

Following are a series of activities in which students apply various math skills to better understand the problems of world hunger and what steps are being taken to reduce the number of people without enough to eat. This activity looks at how the number of people affected by hunger is changing. Students will understand the dynamic nature of the problem and the challenges of reaching the Millennium Development Goal to reduce the number of people suffering from hunger by half by 2015. This is Activity #2 of 5 in this lesson.

PlaySport is an online activity-based resource designed to maximize the fun, inclusion, participation, and success of everyone when building their physical literacy.

PlaySport helps children and youth develop an understanding of and competency with skills and strategies associated with physical activities and a wide range of games and sports. The activities in PlaySport can provide experiences for participants to help them build physical literacy and skills for lifelong healthy, active living.

PlaySport uses the Teaching Games for Understanding (TGfU) approach. It has been designed for use in physical education settings, but can be adapted for use in other settings (e.g., intramural, recreation, community, or after-school programs) provided appropriate measures to adhere to the safety criteria within the activities are implemented.

In this activity, students will research a political issue that is highlighted and discussed on the TakingITGlobal website. Students will pick one issue and write a one page satire on the event/issue. Part 2 of the assignment is for the students to create their own political cartoon using Photoshop or similar software.

Students learn about the phases of the moon by acting them out. In 30 minutes, they will act out one complete, 30-day, moon cycle.

*Materials required:
-pencil or wooden skewer (one per student)
-white styrofoam ball, 5 centimetres or larger (one per student)
-light source, such as a lamp (shade removed) with a bright, clear, incandescent bulb (100 watts or higher)

Using TIG profiles as an entry point, this activity explores a broader theme of "profiling" to enable students to examine how they present themselves, as well as cultural perceptions and biases within themselves, their peers, and their community. Students will read TIG profiles and Member Stories, with the objective of better understanding others' perspectives to critically reflect and write about their own identity.

Following are a series of activities in which students apply various math skills to better understand the problems of world hunger and what steps are being taken to reduce the number of people without enough to eat. This activity examines the effect of hunger on children and the connection with child mortality, which is another MDG Hunger Target: Halve, between 1990 and 2015, the proportion of people who suffer from hunger. Child Mortality Target: Reduce by two-thirds, between 1990 and 2015, the under-five mortality rate.
