Graduation looked a bit different this year - but I’m excited for this new journey as a Teacher!

Excited to be joining @rvsed as a Substitute Teacher! #orientation

What a fun day in grade one. Snowflake, our elf, left us a note, we dressed up like presents and decorated cookies!! @heronscrossing

Christmas hat or crazy Christmas hair day. Lots of students joining in the fun!! @heronscrossing

Our grade one students worked hard to keep our classroom clean, with advice from Snowflake our classroom elf. They won the Golden Trash can award. Way to go Grade Ones!! @heronscrossing

What a fun afternoon learning about Braille, learning to read Braille and exploring Braille books. Thank you Mrs Bryden for your visit. @heronscrossing

Love all the excitement with Christmas just around the corner.

Today, our amazing grade ones created self portraits from plasticine. They were super excited to create their masterpieces. @heronscrossing

Grade one students had fun today completing math on iPads and using paint to show their knowledge of tints and shades. @heronscrossing

Getting ready for Remembrance Day in grade one!! @heronscrossing

HCS door decorating contest! We have the cutest witches in Airdrie!! #heronscrossing

Students enjoyed using oil pastels to create their pumpkins! Same lesson but they all have their own creativity.

Some of the things we do in Grade One: Reading, art, centres, and music.

We participated in the Terry Fox at school today. The students kept walking even when they were tired. They never gave up!! You should be proud of yourself. Way to go my Superstars!!!!

Today in Grade One the students identified and used their favourite colour to finish their own “Colour Monster”. They even traced the pencil lines with black. Awesome work Grade One Friends!!!

Today in Grade One we read the book called “The Dot”. Students then created something using only one yellow dot. Here are 2 examples. Today was also the 6th full day of school and we practiced different ways to make six.

I could not resist. With mask on, keeping 2m apart & repeated stops for sanitizer, I had the pleasure of visiting some classrooms & staff at @heronscrossing. Excitement in the air combined with calm, ‘we got this’ vibe. Tons of smiles (most behind masks) #RVSed #bucketfilled
