In this resource, we present three culturally relevant lessons tailored to Nunavut culture and way of life, designed to introduce students to the foundational concepts of Scratch programming.

Get ready to join a research team on their lunar mission- remotely controlling a rover to explore- investigate intriguing areas- and identify unique features of the lunar terrain.

In this lesson, students learn coding basics by building a rudimentary understanding of command codes, sequences, and loops.

In this lesson, students respond to writing prompts that require them to think about other/diverse perspectives via RAFT-style storytelling:

In the fourth and final episode of the Mission Ocean series, we discover what Environmental DNA (eDNA) is, and how it’s being currently utilized for ocean conservation efforts.

In episode 3, learn about a not-so-popular kind of ocean pollutant – Noise. You’ll see how it’s caused, and what surprising thing happens when the noise switches off.

In this episode, you’ll discover the concept and threat of overfishing: Why it’s a threat, how it’s done, and what modern solutions are helping to combat this ocean danger.

In this episode of the Root & STEM podcast, Pinnguaq’s digital skills educator, Sherisse Richards, shares how Scratch–a programming language–can help educators teach students about coding, storytelling, and animation.

An activity that asks readers to read an ocean and marine life infographic and look closely at the pictures to then see if they can correctly identify and name the animals and devices.

In this lesson, students will learn about nattiit (ringed seals) from both biology and an Inuit perspective.

In this lesson, students will expand on their learning from lesson one (Introduction to Nattiit, Ringed Seal)  and build their understanding for how the nattiit are being impacted by climate change and human activity.

Part 5 explores the design of the wings of the blue morpho butterfly and how light reflection alters their appearance to the eye of the viewer.

Part 4 explores the design of shark skin and how it helps the shark function as efficiently as a swimmer and a predator and how the design can help our world become safer and stronger.

Part 9 explores the different aspects of astronomy, with a focus on celestial bodies in space —like stars, planets, and the sun.

Part 7 explores how the Moon’s gravitational pull impacts Earth and causes the tides to reach high and low points.

Part 5 explores the different aspects of the moon, including the dark side, the terminator (the dividing line between dark and light), and the craters that can be seen in pictures.
