Seven Generations teachers visit Robertson team at JICS
Earlier this week, teachers from Pegamigaabo School, Onigaming School, and Seven Generations Education Institute visited the Robertson Program team at the Dr. Eric Jackman Institute of Child Study. Highlights included: co-designing new spatial activities that focus on developing children’s numeracy skills, observing mathematics lessons in JICS classrooms, creating connections with educators at First Nations School (Toronto District School Board), and participating in an inquiry-based environmental science workshop led by Haley Higdon (Natural Curiosity).

Seven Generations’ educators plan a perspective lesson.
