Testimonials - Students
Even my students with behavior issues – you have them engaged because they didn’t think they were doing math.”

Teacher

They love that when they come to school, they get to do ASK lessons. That is a motivator. And attendance for some students has increased. That could be partly because they have fun and are engaged.”

Teacher

I have some students who are slower and less coordinated than others, but are out there participating too, because it is a safe environment. This is, ‘I’m learning math, I’m going to go for it’”.

Teacher

It seems as if ASK is embedded in our pedagogical dialogue right now and doesn't feel at all like an add-on for teachers."

Vice-Principal (2022)

Everyone is engaged outside so you get a chance to check in with everybody. Those who kind of hide in the classroom…they can’t do that outside.”

Teacher

I find it fun because instead of sitting in a desk and the teacher telling you a bunch of boring stuff, and forcing it into your brain, you get to go outside and learn it. Actually learn it."

NS ASK Student, 2019

When you go outside you get a lot of your energy out so that when you come back inside, you’re ready to learn most times.”

NS ASK Student, 2019

ASK is amazing. I actually look forward to going to school!”

NS ASK Student, 2019

ASK is fun. You get to work with your classmates, you get to learn outside, and it helps improve your health.”
