Children are naturally drawn to all things Halloween. The spiders, ghosts and spooky items provide a spring board to expand on literacy, speech and language activities and fine motor skills as they manipulate the small items #ecsdfaithinspires

Beginning our day exploring in the outdoors. This time outside allows our very energetic bodies to get the big gross motor movements we need, with a calming (regulating) result afterwards as we move through the remainder of our day. #getoutside #ecsdfaithinspires

Every Child Matters #EveryChildMatters

Our 100 voices students doing their part in spreading this important message to our communities. Creating a poster and dying their own shirts so all can be involved #EveryChildMatters

Working hard to create welcoming and comforting spaces for our students and families. Excited to welcome all our 100 voices children back on Tuesday. #ecsdfaithinspires #environmentasthethirdteacher

Enjoying our last day together learning in our outdoor space. Thank you so much to one of our wonderful @stmonicaschoolecsd families for donating this amazing mud kitchen! We can’t wait to see the learning that will take place with this new addition. #ecsdfaithinspires

Our environments communicate an important message. Each and every space can be used with intention to create an environment with many interactive parts all working towards supporting the whole child. #environmentasthethirdteacher #physicalliteracy #ecsdfaithinspires

We were so excited to welcome Zelda, a pet tarantula into our classrooms for a visit. It is amazing how children interact with living things, their caring and empathetic nature shines through as they look on in amazement of God’s creations. #ecsdfaithinspires

Our newest friends bring a little extra light and love into our classrooms. The calm and stillness required to hold the ducks required lots of calming to regulate our very excited bodies #ecsdfaithinspires

Our amazing teachers and TASLs continue to keep online learning engaging for our learners. Learning all about the butterfly life cycle and releasing God’s unique creatures into the world reminds us all of the beauty that surrounds us each and every day. #ecsdfaithinspires

These learners are anxiously awaiting their ducks who are supposed to be hatching on Monday! Today they began making a home for their new ducks with many welcome/happy birthday signs. #ecsdfaithinspires #AAC

Sensory play provides rich opportunities for the same materials to be explored in multiple and creative ways. This learner created “rose potion” and when asked what it could be for she shared, “it makes everyone be nice to each other” ❤️ 🌍 #ecsdfaithinspires #sensoryplay

Our staff and students are asked to wear orange tomorrow, May 31st to honour the 215 children who never made it home. #kamloopsresidentialschool #ecsdfaithinspires

Creating small “worlds” to explore outdoors. Countless opportunities for imagination, building vocabulary and exploring social skills. #ecsdfaithinspires #smallworldplay

Catholic education is alive in our classrooms. We see God in our spaces of reflection, we hear God in our words and we feel God in ours hearts. #ecsdfaithinspires #IbelieveinCatholicEd
