Discovering Failure as a Part of Learning
Are your students aware of how scientists model resiliency? Join Let's Talk Science for a session to explore examples of famous people who have overcome their failures and then experienced immense success. You will then be provided with strategies to help your students reflect upon "famous failures" and resources to encourage your students to move through difficult circumstances. This session audience is for Gr. 7-12 educators.
Exploring outdoors: Discovering Math in Nature
Are you interested in connecting math with nature? Join Let's Talk Science to explore examples of mathematics in our natural world. Build your confidence by exploring geometric shapes, common patterns, symmetry and tessellations in nature. Discover a learning strategy that can be scaffolded for use both inside and outside of the classroom.
