Throughout January, we are excited to feature collections that include self-care for sustainable study, opportunities to hone critical thinking skills across multiple subjects, and concept-based approaches to teaching and learning.

Designed to promote computer science and give all students a chance to experience coding, The Hour of Code has multiple entry points for different grades and coding abilities.

December’s Featured Collections explore how different identities, relationships, and communities are represented in media, sports, and government, as well as fun and engaging activities in science and math.

Every November 11, on the 11th hour, Canadians observe Remembrance Day. On this day, we honour all those who have served in Canada’s armed forces, from World War I up to today.

The Feature theme for November is Past, Present, and Future, and includes collections that encourage students to reflect on the immediate and distant past, explore the skills that help us to understand time, and integrate Days of Significance into the classroom.

Bullying Awareness and Prevention Week (November 15–21, 2021) was created to raise awareness of bullying and create safer and more welcoming school environments for all.

Media Literacy Week in Canada was created to help students become literate in our complex world of digital media. The goal is to develop students’ critical thinking skills so they can become informed digital citizens.

October's theme is Preparation and will feature collections that help students equip themselves with competencies and core knowledge to excel academically and personally.

Getting Started Activities are designed with new users in mind and cover a broad range of grades, subjects, and provincial curricula. They have also been built with multiple modes of instruction in mind (Whole class, Teacher-only, Online, In-person, etc.) to accommodate different learning environments. Try one today!
