Gloria and Vance hosted a cultural workshop for our data champions. A huge thank you to Crystal Gloade and Olivia Howe for hosting a Birchbark Quillwork Medallion workshop!
Elementary Math
Our Elementary Numeracy Consultant Kyla Bernard had a conversation with Holly Hudson, grade 5-8 Math teacher in We'koqma'q school early in the spring. She felt that having whiteboard tables for her math class would hep her students have the space they require to be able to record their thinking alongside their work. Kyla coordinated the purchase and delivery to her classroom. They are an absolute hit!
Post Secondary
The Post Secondary team held several workshops and events this month. On June 12th our Adult Education Coordinator Melissa Reid and Aiden Johnson held a session on using iPads for Elders 55+ in Glooscap. Participants received new iPads and some guidance on how to use them including supporting them through setting up an apple account.
TEC held an end of the year cultural activity for their students on June 25. The event took place at the beach in Eskasoni and the students had a fantastic day fishing.
On June 26 our Adult Education Coordinator Melissa Reid partnered with our Literacy Consultant Candace Bernard to offer a literacy workshop at Jane Paul Center.
