This shared-reading resource is accessible to Quebec teachers who have received provincial- or Board-level SoundPrints training. Should you need a password, please contact your Board's ISN resource person (listed here).
This website features engaging, current, well-researched science and social studies articles for upper-elementary to secondary students.
The Pics 4 Learning website offers a collection of "free photos for education". This is a good source of science/nature images to illustrate SoundPrints science concepts and terms. This site was brought to our attention by Sylvie Dumouchel (NFSB). Merci Sylvie!

| What is ISN? |
The Inclusive Schools Network (ISN) supports inclusive teaching/learning in Quebec's English School Boards. Its key premise is that all learners are members of the school community, and profit from challenge/enrichment. Emphasis is placed on continuum- based (developmental) approaches, those that promote high instructional standards for all learners. |
| ISN Resources |
Please note that ISN resources are not mandated/created by the MELS. Rather, these complementary tools are designed and released by ISN's Coordinator (Lynn Senecal, Ph.D.) as a service to Quebec teachers. MELS (DPP-SCA) supports access to these non-profit resources; however, their use is not required. All open-access templates may be downloaded for non-profit classroom use. They may not be modified, re- posted, or used commercially. (Rule of thumb: Lynn earns nothing; nor should you!) To ensure understanding/rich use of more complex tools, access to some areas of the website is restricted to Quebec teachers with ISN training. A list of local trainers is available here. |
