Professor Garfield

Published in All Grades, Language Arts, Math, Other, Science on June 25, 2012

List member, Gord Crutchley, found this site called Professor Garfield. I didn’t know Garfield the Cat was so educated, but here’s a collection of activities to support learning and literacies. Many of the activities are tied to American curriculum but can be extrapolated to other standards easily enough. “The Professor Garfield Foundation is a not-for-profit 501(c)(3) educational collaboration between Paws, Inc., the global headquarters for Garfield the Cat, and Ball State University, a nationally recognized leader in teacher training and digital education.” Teacher information is along the top menu and the activities for students scroll along the bottom where you’ll find an assortment of activities.

  • Belize Literacy Program

    In November 2012, members of the Belize Ministry of Education, principals, and lead teachers met in each of the six districts for two days of conversations and discussions around the challenges and next steps in integrating technology to support teaching and learning in Belize. The sessions highlighted global trends and challenges from the K-12 Horizon Report, the National Education Technology Standards (NETS) for students, teachers, and administrators, as well as an overview of the content from the August 2012 technology workshop for teachers.
