A lovely assembly for Remembrabce Day, with all @JoycePS_LDSB students participating so thoughtfully. Super proud of our wreath bearers and our whole Grade 4/5 class for such a beautiful recitation of In Flanders Fields. #lestweforget2024

The Miller Museum was a hit as 4/5’s had a chance to get up close and personal with rocks, minerals, and even fossils! Super proud of these kiddos for a wonderful day of experiential learning! @JoycePS_LDSB

What a fantastic day to explore downtown Kingston! We loved our walk from City Park and tour of City Hall. Next stop is the Queen’s Miller Museum of Geology! @JoycePS_LDSB

I love watching these 4/5’s grow their Math fluency and confidence, working through problems together and sharing different approaches and strategies! 👏

We’re lucky to have Phys Ed three days a week plus regular physical activity time outside! 4/5’s are building cooperative and sportsmanship skills as well as balance, mobility, dexterity, and fitness! @JoycePS_LDSB

Such great math learning today! We had our amazing Math Lead, Mr Gallagher, do a guest Math Fluency talk, then collaborated in groups to solve number pattern problems and share our learning! @JoycePS_LDSB

Grade 4/5’s did an incredible job this week during our first Reading Buddies with the SK/1’s! 📚 ❤️ @JoycePS_LDSB

What a beautiful way to spend an October Monday! Sincere thanks to @natezahn and team for the Indigenous Math on the Land workshop @gouldlake_LDSB! 🍂🍁

t’s been a full and fantastic week in Grade 4/5 @JoycePS_LDSB! We completed our first writing task, designing our dream classrooms, and we are continuing our awesome math learning around multiplication and division fact fluency and place value! Super proud of these kiddos! 😍

Awesome math learning happening in Grade 4/5 @JoycePS_LDSB as we explore giant numbers and understand how the position of each digit affects its VALUE!

Fresh 🍎 from a @JoycePS_LDSB family orchard! Heading to the Kingston Fall Fair tomorrow to cheer on some students as they show their calves and pigs! Happy Friday, all! 🥰

So lucky to have our very own Math Lead, Mr Gallagher, in today to guide us through some hands-on problem solving! Kiddos worked together to compare equations and create three different types of triangles! @JoycePS_LDSB

Grade 4/5 is off and running with group problem solving, Zentangle art, a Design Your Dream Classroom challenge, and our collaborative Class Agreement! Super proud of these @JoycePS_LDSB kiddos!
