This photo is from Dave Law’s class — an advisor at the Seven Oaks Met School. Dave was a guest speaker during our third class, where he spoke about interdisciplinary projects.

The crew in my University of Winnipeg Faculty of education Project-Based Learning Applied class created projects for the school suspension period. As teachers, we were devastated that the sense of community we had created in our classrooms might be severed, so we took our theory on intentional design that is geared towards fostering curiosity, inquiry, and community and created these experiences to share with all teachers.

Scratch Fun!

Jamming with my kids! Try this game out! (WordPress doesn’t like the code to embed.) We used the Star Wars Coding Projects book to help us get started. Lots of maths, collaboration, computational thinking, recognizing patterns, and plain old fun. Haven’t messed around with Scratch in a while!
