Proud of our broadcast media students and their first live school newscast- plus a surprise guest weather reporter, Mr. Tam! What an incredible first live stream! @connectcharter
So cool to virtually connect and collaborate with @connectcharter alumni and now a fellow tech teacher Alan Lam at Shanghai United International School!
The last time the Turing Tumbles were out for these grade 7s was before the pandemic when they were in grade 4! Lots of excitement to explore and build computational thinking skills this morning. @connectcharter
A great first day of Creative Tech for this school year @connectcharter! Students are starting off with designing their own emojis under the theme of belonging.
So glad I visited the very cool learning happening in Grade 4 @connectcharter as they explore and manipulate @AlbertaTomorrow models to understand sustainable planning approaches! Check out the tool at https://t.co/6c0YUtW3uJ @ivywaite
And a shout out to SavoryBitez for the best chicken sandwiches weโve ever had! This group of students, teachers, and school leaders were well fed! https://t.co/BSOI8OvVqm
This week we celebrated being named an #AppleDistinguishedSchool! A big accomplishment that speaks to strong leadership, vision, and exemplary teaching and learning @connectcharter.
It was great to get out to the Field Experience Centre to gain new perspectives of the land from the sky with the @connectcharter Tech Leadership elective!
This thread has some great examples, resources, and questions that promote #MediaLiteracy and combat mis and disinformation - the @firstdraftnews training centre also includes some great resources and thinking exercises.
A large amount of mis- and disinformation has circulated on social media in multiple languages over the past few days regarding #Ukraine. Trustworthy information is as important as ever in times of crisis, so here are our top tips and tools ๐
Amazing learning in @OFelstrom, @ivywaite and @ksonicoโs Grade 4 group this morning with a MinecraftEDU badlands inquiry followed by a @ParksCanada virtual field trip- thanks for the invite to stop by, today I wish I was a grade 4 student again! @connectcharter@PlayCraftLearn
@alexstratmoen@connectcharter@UWaterloo We canโt wait to have you back at Connect for those four months! I have no doubts that weโll learn so much from you.
Iโm so excited to announce I will be joining the educational technology team @connectcharter starting late April for my first coop term at @UWaterloo! I canโt wait to work with such an innovative school, and as a former Connect alumni itโs a really cool full circle moment!
Join #UAlberta Education librarians Kim Frail and David Sulz for a presentation on #BlackHistoryMonth resources to use in the K-12 classroom, including lesson plans, activities and virtual field trips.
