Instructional Technology Research

Cette tâche de recherche rapide et simple amènera vos élèves à explorer la vie des 23 premiers ministres canadiens, de Sir John A. MacDonald à Justin Trudeau. Chaque page de ce document contient un premier ministre différent et invite à découvrir leur histoire, leur impact et une citation célèbre. Chaque page est une feuille de travail de style infographique qui invite les élèves à remplir les trous pour fournir des informations relatives à leur premier ministre. Explorez l'histoire politique du Canada!

C'est une excellente activité à laisser avec un enseignant suppléant, et ils paraissent bien sur une chronologie sur votre mur avant les entretiens parents-enseignants. 

Cette activité est destinée aux classes de la 3e à la 5e année et est idéale comme outil pour enseigner les compétences de recherche au début de l'année scolaire.

Les élèves peuvent colorier leur premier ministre sur chaque page, et vous pouvez choisir de les faire présenter à leurs pairs !

Learning about Design: Elements of Art, Shapes & Color is a three-part lesson to give students an introduction to design. This is perfect for a technology class that focuses on web design or graphic design, or for an art class. The first lesson has students create a PowerPoint (or Google Slides presentation) to define the Seven Elements of Art in their own words and give picture examples of three areas of design for each. In the second lesson, students complete a short WebQuest (Internet Scavenger Hunt) to answer questions about how designers use shapes to convey a message. Finally, in the third lesson, students explore how designers use color by researching information on the Internet and completing a color chart. The project was created for grades 7-8 but could easily be adapted for older students.

This lesson is great for distance learning/remote learning. You can upload it to your school's learning management system (Google Classroom, Edmodo, Canvas, etc.) or share with students via Google Drive.
