It never ceases to amaze us how creative students can be when given the right materials and opportunity to explore!

These are some of our favourite robotic Tree Seeders from our Climate Action Kit workshop at Skills Ontario yesterday!

Today we were on-site at Skills Ontario to run a workshop with the Forward Education Climate Action Kits!

Check out some of the awesome Tree Seeders these students made 🌳🌱

Gr9’s Father Michael Goetz celebrate Earth Week by learning how technology can helps address impacts of climate change. Using the Micro:bit Educational Foundation & InkSmith climate action kit, Ss program an irrigation pump to support sustainable farming! School plants get a good watering too! #snc1w

Celebrating #EarthDay by coding with InkSmith Climate Action Kit.
Ss discussed Climate Change issues related to Water such as scarcity and conservation. Teams worked together and had fun creating an automated watering system. 🪴💧St Luke CS EcoSchools Canada

It’s almost #EarthDay 🌎 & I have resources for ALL levels and some in French.

Following up with John Cabot Catholic SS science teachers after the 2-part PD sessions to support them with integrating coding in SNC1W! Gr9’s had fun with the InkSmith climate action kit & programming a smart irrigation system! #snc1W 🌱💦

We have so many people/groups inspiring our learning! Let's Talk Science Jeremy R.

Part 2 of Digital Tools PD today had SNC1W teachers deepen their understanding of coding concepts, build their coding skills using the Micro:bit Educational Foundation & extend to the InkSmith climate action kit! Great learning, collaboration & reflecting today!

This is what it looks like when you bring the whole Forward EDU team together to brainstorm project ideas!

Lots of cool Micro:bit Educational Foundation climate action projects in the works 🌎🌱🤖
