How cute are these autumn forest perspective paintings from my Grade 1/2s?

Hey Parents! Take two minutes to read this simple guide about supporting your child’s literacy at home! improvingliteracy.org/post/supportin…

After March Break, I’ll be launching a Creative Club extra-curricular! Our first project: this adorable rainbow egg carton/odd pieces wreath!

The Grade 2s have been learning about the water cycle. This week, we made our own representations of the cycle: evaporation (H2O moves into the air), condensation (clouds form), precipitation (rain/snow), and collection (H2O collects on land). Repeat for 3.8 billion years.

In honour of Lunar New Year my Grade 1s & 2s launched a REAL traditional paper lantern today and sent off our hopes and wishes for 2025!

Flashlight Friday got a whole lot more magical this week!

Yuán xiāo jié kuài lè! Happy Lantern Festival!

I’m so proud of my Grade 1s & 2s! Look what happened today when I asked them to show me all the ways they know to make 10 (we have been working on this for during our 15 min a day Fact Fluency time the last two weeks).

Every #onted student needs a properly funded and staffed school library, but Ford's govt thinks differently and eliminated protected funding for libraries and library staff. Don't let library cuts happen! Sign the petition to #SaveOurSchoolLibraries accessola.com/petition/

Have a great first day tomorrow @LimestoneDSB! To all teachers and school support staff, take care this time of year (and always). Our children need your gifts.

I heard once that how your parents spoke to you is now your inner voice. What an important concept to remember. Love in = love out.

Thanks @BrendaReed16 for helping us see the math in children’s books and guiding us in mathematizing storybook content. @QueensEduc @AIMCollectiveCA #CEMEC2024

Attending and volunteering at the Canadian Early Mathematics Education Conference today with amazing speakers and great co-learning @hanna_wickstrom @tracie_anthony and @DrSandyYoumans #cemec2024

The cheapest and easiest to set up science activity: hose in the street. My kids have been out for 1-2 hrs per day with this one. They wash the car, run through it, limbo under it, float toys to the storm drain, you name it! They find new ways to play every time they turn it on.
