The last couple weeks we have worked on examining non fiction text features. Today we are putting our skills to the test by doing research on our own animals. @EJSMSchool

Working on our comic strips with our Grade 10 helpers. This has been a great partnership. Excited to see the finished products. @EJSMSchool

One of my favourite part of my day is working with small groups. The kids really love their special time and it’s nice to be able to target their specific needs. Additionally it’s an excellent time for extra connection ❤️ just my Tuesday thoughts! @EJSMSchool

We made igloos out of icing sugar and marshmallows on Thursday! @EJSMSchool

We had a blast working with money to purchase supplies for our dream bedrooms. Students showed an understanding of needs verses wants and used skip counting to pay for their supplies. @EJSMSchool

What a great lunchtime with Rieley from @MoesLacombe. Kids made their own pizzas yesterday and then got to show off their creations as they ate pizza! Thanks Rieley and Brynn too!

Creating our own fraction pizzas to show off to @MoesLacombe tomorrow :) We have some new creative designs coming your way! @EJSMSchool

Kiddos learning from kiddos. Double digit addition on an open number line is way more fun when our classmates teach us! @EJSMSchool

Worked on fractions today. We used plasticine to compare and to work on making our own fractions! @EJSMSchool

Addition races on this lovely Thursday. @EJSMSchool

Students worked on their winter counts today during Math. @EJSMSchool

Thanks @Lacombejrhigh for giving us a few helpers for our pumpkin carving! @EJSMSchool

Lots of great centres up and running. Working hard and getting the kiddos engaged and feeling successful! @EJSMSchool

Made thankful trees to give to our families for thanksgiving. Students learned about gratitude and appreciation. @EJSMSchool

A twist on the classic Leaf Man Art project. @EJSMSchool

Using some old receipt rolls to make number lines up to 1000! Easy to store ;) @EJSMSchool

Sight word sensory fun this Tuesday. @EJSMSchool

Our class isn’t counting down the days. This year end is going to be tough. The connections we have with these two year kiddos are going to be hard to say good bye to 😭

Art is much better when a superstar teaches it. @EJSMSchool

Huge thanks to the Grade 8s from @Lacombejrhigh for coming and coaching us in our soccer games today. The kids loved their big buddies, especially when we did a bigs vs. littles game ;)
