Yours in inquiry,

New Year, New Look

We are excited to announce our redesigned Resources for Rethinking (R4R) website. Our goal is to provide you with a great user-experience. You can now access the full resource review (incl. Sustainability Education Principles and Pedagogical Approaches) in our new one-stop-shop review pages. The site's redesign is now mobile friendly so feel free to visit our site on your phone and tablet! Explore the site to see our fresh new colours, design changes and access some of our new resources for this year!

Want to maximize your experience on R4R.ca?

LSF is offering free R4R demonstration workshops and webinars this fall. These workshops provide teachers with tips on accessing the best teacher-reviewed, curriculum-matched sustainability resources and applying R4R programs in the classroom. Webinars and workshops in Ontario are being offered through the generous support of the Ontario Teachers' Insurance Plan. Request a 20-minute workshop or webinar today!
