Online Lessons For Teachers

As the world adapts to the new realities of digital engagement, we adapt with it. To support the work of teachers, parents and caretakers, MOA’s Education department has been busy compiling lesson ideas that bring world cultures, new ideas and new experiences into the home classroom. We hope that these resources can help students stay engaged while staying home.

The online lessons below are drawn from MOA’s online Teacher Resources. Use these pre-prepared lessons below or explore the original resources to find activities that suit your needs.

If you have any questions, please email the MOA Education team at education@moa.ubc.ca.
