Ecosystems
Ecosystems provide habitats for plants and animals, and support different food chains and food webs. They can be very small and fit in jars, or they can be very large like a forest. Our planet needs healthy ecosystems to survive. How can we ensure that there is enough energy from the sun, clean air and food for our ecosystems to survive? What would happen if one of those parts were missing? What can you do to help our planet stay healthy?
Welcome to the exclusive Brilliant Labs reading of the book "Be A Maker." At 10:00 AM AST / 10:30 AM NDT, our Director of Instructional Design, Jacob Lingley has the pleasure of hosting author Katey Howes as she leads us through a reading of her inspirational children's book.
Please join us in leaving a review for "Be A Maker" on Amazon.ca. https://www.amazon.ca/Be-Maker-Katey-...
**Teacher Professional Learning Opportunity** Also, if you are a teacher Jacob and Katey will be discussing the pedagogical implications of her book on the world of teaching, learning and making. Particular emphasis will be place on the role of making and community-based empathy. Stay tuned to our social media feeds for more information.

Today is the perfect day to get outside and capture a moment in time! Join eight-year-old Hunter, from Nova Scotia, as he shares how you can make your very own time capsule. All you need is a waterproof container (Glass jars don’t work well outside.If you’re hiding it in your home, any container will do!) things that you love and will remind you of these moments in time. For example: write a letter, store receipts, photographs, articles, or anything else you think will help future generations understand what life was like for a kid in 2020. After you finish your time capsule project why not create a Scratch game to mark your steps and create a map to find your capsule in the future!

Let’s create melodies with natural sounds
Music can be found in all known cultures, past and present. All the peoples of the world have created forms of music.
In addition, nature itself offers its own music!
Have you ever listened to the sounds that nature offers us?
In today's digital skills activity, we will learn two things. First, listening to sounds in nature, especially those of a variety of birds, high and low pitched sounds, short and long sounds.
The second part will be to learn how to use the concepts of music creation with Chrome Lab to integrate bird sounds and create a melody.
