Started my tree of gratitude today 🩷

In our morning meeting this week, we talked about how important mistakes are in our learning journey, and how we can learn from our mistakes.

We spent the week reflecting on all that we are thankful for 🍁🍂. We walked to the Lakefield Farmers Market to get fresh squash and carrots that we used to make soup for our class Thanksgiving!

We worked together, trusting our partners to create masks. When they dry, we will be painting them! Art can tell you a lot about how someone is feeling and how they perceive themselves in the world. Art therapy has been used for many years to help people express themselves.

In Art, we are also learning about the colour wheel and one-point perspective. Check out our awesome city art that we created using one-point perspective techniques.

Students had a piece of paper taped onto their back. They were instructed to walk around the room and write anonymous positive things about every other person, without looking at their own until the end. This activity came with loads of smiles and lots of laughter!!

WE ARE A TEAM! Together everyone achieves more!! We worked together to pull this fire truck!!

We are learning how to construct 3D objects when given their top, front, and side views.

Excited to share what I learned at a recent PD, with my Junior colleagues in a PLC format! #collaboration

Don't plan by asking: What am I going to give students to DO today? Instead design by asking: How will I have learners produce evidence of learning? Not only for me, but for everyone in the room to see. That's where you start.

Encouraging students to “think about their thinking” 🧠💯

Be the reason a kid wants to go to school this year.
