That's a wrap on the @PLRobertsonPS SHIFT-ALT-SPACE event! Intermediates dove into tech stations but also really enjoyed tech free options like weaving, origami, blackout and paint chip poetry! Next, students get their say in the library redesign.
Grade 5 @brucetrailps Ss are challenging initial biases by generating positive things about removing the wall dividing their 2 classrooms.
Considering perspectives of students, homeroom + rotary teachers, they'll begin to understand what's most valuable for all @RotmanIThink

In last week's Step Outside Nature Guide, @LSF_LST has a chlorophyll extraction activity that looks amazing!
We're trialing it in our Innovation Lab and inviting you to follow along. We created a doc ready to show your students, or post in Classroom!

@mlleLalli's Grade 8 students at @AldershotSchool are extracting DNA from strawberries! We took some photos under a microscope along the way. What do you notice? What do you wonder? ππ¬
@msbaileybrh's Grade 6 math class getting familiar with @Ozobot using the Race for the Gold Lesson before tackling some coding in Blockly!
Collaboration, trial-and-error, and making adjustments to codes were key in developing winning strategies!

At The Shift, we embrace failure! This week, the Shift's Tracy Terry failed when she tried to make a chip bag notebook that turned out backwards!
She eventually did figure it out. Figure it out with your class and share your success (or failure) with us! https://t.co/UdfNBnn8Hl
This year, 7-1 @BrantHillsPS did a book study of the @peterhreynolds book Say Something. We talked about positive ways to use our voice and how clothing can be used to communicate our values. We learned to use natural dyes: cabbage, beet + coffee. Today we iron on their designs!
