Resources Used

  • Consultants/instructional coaches
  • A secondary FSL core teacher who is using Sketchnoting
  • Curriculum Services Canada: Transforming FSL
  • eduGAINS
  • Technology already existing in schools (particularly iPads, as all of our teachers and Grade 9 students have school iPads) and apps such as Paper53 and Notability. We also purchased a Paper53 stylus for each member of the team to use for Sketchnoting.
  • Various textbooks, supplementary books, resource programs available in schools – print and digital
  • Resource books/websites for background, strategies and professional development – we created a document in Google Docs to collect, curate, annotate and share resources that we used (See link below.)
