Curriculum Resource Centre-MSVU

For some of us, Seton Academic Centre on the MSVU campus is home from Monday to Friday, 8:30 am to 4:30 pm. How lucky are we to have such a beautiful campus in the city?

The CRC now has copies of the French Facile à lire series for teaching young students how to read in the French language. Excellent for students in French Immersion. "These series follow a syllabic method and a logical progression, based on phonology and the rate at which more complex sounds and graphemes appear." facilealire.com

Le CRC dispose désormais d'exemplaires de la collection française « Facile à lire », conçue pour apprendre aux jeunes élèves à lire en français. C'est une excellente ressource pour les élèves des programmes d'immersion française. « Ces collections suivent une méthode syllabique et une progression logique, fondées sur la phonologie et sur l'ordre d'introduction des sons et graphèmes les plus complexes. » facilealire.com

Summer, dirt, flowers, mud, sand, water, clouds...WORMS! *The wriggly ones, not cute Lowly Worm* Check out the latest issue of Play Outdoors Magazine for fascinating info on outside education.

Educators, come check out resources in the CRC before Canada Day (campus is closed July 1st) that feature our wonderful country. Did you know that Elvis could not leave North America due to his manager's, Colonel Tom Parker's, legal troubles. Elvis could only perform in Canada and did so in 1957 in Ottawa, Toronto and Vancouver. Religious groups protested and cancelled Elvis's concert planned for Montreal. Now you know.

We are busy highlighting CRC items that focus on our important Nova Scotian heritage. Check the book spines (the thick bound edge of books) or see CRC staff to find Africentric, Indigenous or Gaelic items. See you soon!
