About Us
Empowered Learning
Teachers and parents are some of the busiest people in the world. Quality learning activities that are engaging, aligned with the provincial curriculum, and foster a love of learning take copious amounts of time, effort, patience and trial and error to create, test, and revise. Education Rocks K-6 Learning Activities are student and teacher appraised in Alberta classrooms. It is a highly creative and relevant teaching and learning opportunity for students of all learning abilities and for busy teachers and parents in any setting.
Supporting Educators, Inspiring Students: Our Mission
Education Rocks is founded on the principles of pragmatic, affordable, and adaptable learning opportunities for developing the core life skills of literacy and numeracy. We believe that every learner has the right to quality learning opportunities regardless of their environment.
Our vision is to provide literacy and numeracy learning and teaching opportunities for as many educators, parents and students in Alberta, Canada and the world by offering affordable and adaptable learning activities in elementary and upper elementary education.
Our mission is to relevantly create and affordably provide quality learning activities for grades K-6 English Language Arts & Literature and Mathematics for the new LearnAlberta curriculum.
