Bad news: EduGains is gone 🪦 Good news: You can get a lot of what was there on the onted.ca website 😌.

The Gr 3/4s did wonderfully working together on their group math challenge! Building thinking & collaboration using parts of the BTC framework: randomized groups, "vertical" Jamboard, and reframing of tasks as 🔥 spiciness 🔥 level rather than difficulty. @TDSB_ConEd @pgliljedahl

S and I finished working on her self-portrait for her Gr 6 graduation! We use hand-over-hand assistance for our students with limited mobility so they feel involved and a sense of ownership over their art pieces. 😊 @Glamorganjrps #ISP103

We are always learning! More shared leadership in action as staff who have been part of #BuildingThinkingClassrooms with @pgliljedahl shared their learning this week as we build capacity on staff and take our learning vertical! #ThinkingTasks @tdsb @NeethanShan @Jason_To

ISP 103's first baby watermelon!!!! 🍉🌼 Wish us luck! @Glamorganjrps

Engaging our ISP student using her favourite toy (she loves the quacking!) on TD Snap. The eventual goal is that she will use it to communicate words, but for now we are starting w/ simply understanding that she can use her eye gaze to activate a response! @Glamorganjrps

ISP Rm 103 is growing a class plant! Can anyone guess what we are growing together? 🪴 Hint: 🍉😉😋🤤 @Glamorganjrps

ISP 103's new sensory board is complete! 🤲🏽 We love playing with our new board for many reasons, such as helping our students develop their tactile senses through exploring new sensations & giving students new vocabulary by helping them feel & naming new textures! @Glamorganjrps

ISP Rm 103 LOVES circle time! Though our students are non-verbal, it is still important they have agency & voice - just communicated differently! We are learning to blink using our 123 choice board to pick songs & clicking w/ hand-over-hand support to start videos! @Glamorganjrps
