This week’s tech tip comes a little early. Our online encyclopedia offers learning packs on subjects to make research and learning easier. Each pack includes encyclopedia articles, images, and videos. Articles can be set to several reading levels and include a read-aloud function. Britannica School can be accessed here at Riverton School with no login credentials. At home, access is by username and password (see me for this information).

We aren’t seeing students on Monday 10/11, but if you wanted to offer resources to learn about Indigenous People around the world, here’s some good stuff to get started with. These could be a lesson, offered as an extension, or put the link aside for another time when you are discussing Indigenous People.

Here are excellent ideas for activities and discussions that make use of these materials. Scroll down the Indigenous Peoples Day page to find the activities.
