How many people is this membership licensed for?

The Educalme membership is licensed per teacher.

Each teacher will have their own private account and login information that they can use in their classroom/with their students. All content in Educalme is to be used by the teacher who owns the account with their students and not to be shared with other teachers who do not have a membership.

Teachers/councillors/specialists etc. that work in multiple classrooms can use their membership with all the students they work with. However, they cannot share their login information with other teachers.

Do you offer school or division/district licenses?

Yes, we do!

Here are some helpful PDFs with information that can help you decide if a school, division or district Educalme membership is right for you:

When you make a purchase of 5 or more memberships, a 10% discount is automatically applied at checkout.

The person who makes the memberships order will become the team manager, or they can assign this position to someone else. The “Manager” role allows you to add and delete members from the team. This means if a teacher goes on a leave or changes schools, the manager will easily be able to reassign the membership to the new teacher who takes their place so there are no memberships going unused!

I purchased an Educalme membership, but I still only have access to the free trial. What do I do?

For your paid Educalme membership to work, you will need to activate it first. The program is set up in this way because it’s not always the person who purchases the program that will actually be using it (example: the secretary makes the purchase for the teacher).

Follow these super easy steps on how to activate your membership(s) and how to assign them to either yourself and/or someone else.

Your membership will expire a year from the date it was assigned.

Which grades is Educalme for?

Educalme is for all grades, kindergarten all the way to grade 12 (and teachers too!)!

Educalme consists of daily audios. While the audios include simple vocabulary, they are not recorded in a “baby” voice, so students of all ages can understand and appreciate the audio content. There are also many units with 2 and 5 minute audio options. Furthermore, there are so many units in Educalme (more than you can get through in one school year!) so you can choose which units will work best for the grade you teach and the outcomes that are important to you.

The printables, videos, projects and activities inside Educalme usually have multiple versions, which includes a version for K-4/5 students and one for 5/6-12 students with deeper thinking questions.

There are endless options for you to tailor the Educalme content to the grade(s) you teach, no prep required!

You can get a behind-the-scenes tour of exactly what’s inside the Educalme membership by watching this video.

Does Educalme work in a Core French classroom?

Absolutely! Here’s why.

There are lots of core French teachers using the Educalme program with their students. Many Core French teachers are even using the program to teach French to their students! It’s a wonderful interdisciplinary program to teach beginners French.

Educalme was evaluated by a third party and the evaluation not only demonstrated that this program self-regulation, focus, resilience, classroom management and more, but we also learned that the program works really well for classrooms learning French as a second language.

Here’s some of the feedback we received from one of the many Core French teachers that participated in the evaluation surveys:

“I’ve found lots of SEL and mindfulness resources in English but never with a French translation — this is where Educalme saves me the most time; I love that the French version is the same as the English. Educalme has given me an easy way to teach key vocabulary in my Core French classroom (ex. Breathe in, breathe out, take a deep breath, don’t forget, etc.). I love that I can use the 5 min audio clips in both English and French, to support my students learning French as a second language.”

As mentioned above, inside the Educalme program, everything is exactly the same in both languages. Many teachers shared in the surveys used for the evaluation that they pre-taught some of the vocabulary at the start of the unit. In each unit, there’s a lesson plan where we list the new vocabulary for the unit, which makes it easy for you to share with your group. In the lesson plan, there are also discussion questions that can be repeated throughout the unit. As we know, repetition is key when learning a new language, so this repetition in each unit makes it a wonderful opportunity for students to retain new vocabulary.

The audios and videos always follow the same pattern, which means there’s also a lot of repetition in vocabulary. This is great for new French learners! Furthermore, the printables are worded with simple vocabulary and have a lot of repetition throughout the unit as well.

What we’ve seen with beginner French classrooms is that often teachers will first make students listen to the English audio, then either the same day or the next day, they will switch to the French version, and go from one to the other as needed. Or, they’ll start the unit by listening to the English version, then go over the vocabulary, then listen to the French versions for multiple days after that.

We usually recommend middle and high school grades to listen to audio 1 on Monday, audio 2 on Tuesday, audio 3 on Wednesday, etc. However, with French as a second language learners, we encourage them to listen to audio 1 for the entire week (again, repetition!), audio 2 for the entire week, etc. starting with the English version first then moving into the French version. This way students learn the language and the vocabulary at a much deeper level.
