Stronger Together: Connecting Subjects to Ignite Student Learning | PHE Canada
In schools, across all grade levels, cross-curricular connections result in countless benefits for student learning. Cross-curricular connections are purposefully planned lessons that fuse two or more subjects, providing students with meaningful learning experiences while ‘connecting the dots’ between subjects. In this blog, I share a brief introduction and a few teaching considerations pertaining to cross-curricular connections, along with two examples—one for K-6 and one for Grade 7 and above. Alongside some supporting materials, I conclude with a list of ‘Three To-Dos’ for educational stakeholders to consider when thinking about the innumerable amount of benefits that can arise from cross-curricular connections in the learning environment.

Supporting Gender and Sexually Diverse Students | PHE Canada
Research shows that many gender and sexually diverse students have negative experiences engaging in physical and health education, which impacts their lifelong health and well-being. PHE Canada worked with Dr. Travers at Simon Fraser University, Sonali (Alyy) Patel, a 2SLGBTQ+ intersectionality researcher, and 2SLGBTQ+ youth and allies to research, review, and recommend strategies to embed inclusive programming practices and better support gender and sexually diverse students in your classroom.

Consent for Autistic Youth | SIECCAN
Autistic youth require effective education about consent. However, existing consent education often does not meet their needs. Consent education that is inclusive of the needs and experiences of Autistic youth empowers Autistic youth to assert their boundaries, encourages Autistic youth to respect the choices that others make about their own bodies, and promotes greater understanding and acceptance of Autistic ways of being.
Pins and Bottles: Fun, Budget-Friendly Ideas for Target Games! | PHE Canada
Pins and Bottles: Fun, Budget-Friendly Ideas for Target Games! | PHE Canada
Bowling pins, thin pins, and numbered pins are fantastic tools for target games—but you do not need anything fancy to get started. Empty water or soda bottles make a fun, budget-friendly alternative. Throughout this post, I will refer to them all as “pins,” but remember that bottles work just as well. For added flair and scoring variety, try filling bottles with water and a splash of food coloring.

Rethink Food Literacy Education with BrightBites | PHE Canada
Ontario Dietitians in Public Health (ODPH) introduces BrightBites, a bilingual digital platform designed to support educators and school staff in fostering food literacy and body inclusivity within school settings. Anchored by three evidence-based Guiding Principles—positive food discourse, respect for food-related roles, and promotion of body diversity—BrightBites encourages a shift away from traditional “healthy vs. unhealthy” narratives. Through practical actions, curriculum-linked resources, and supportive guidance, the website empowers adults in schools to cultivate environments where students can build positive relationships with food and feel accepted in their bodies.
