“My Beyond Classrooms experience has changed how I teach. I speak less and my students speak more.” “Learning to teach through Inquiry has changed me as a teacher.” “It was probably the best week of my 25 years of teaching.”

Teacher’s Reflections:

“This artifact makes me feel proud to be free in Canada... This artifact has made me more interested in every soldier past and story." – Grade 6-7 student "Coming here has been very worthwhile. I have enjoyed being here very much and would like to come here again. I wish I had more time here. I have learned a lot about art... I learned that art can tell a lot about the Canadian identity. " – Grade 3-4 student "My favourite part was journaling because I could learn and

  • bserve all the things I found interesting." – Grade 5 student
