We are people. We are nature. We are living beings. We are students. Our teacher is @amandasantos_ed

Some beautiful whole body listening + #respect #love #courage #humilty #wisdom #courage #honesty #beingyourself happening during our welcome circle as a child shares his most embarrassing moment in Mandarin and another child translates for us❤️ @tdsb

Thank-you for the incredible adventure this year Room 101! Enjoy the sunshine and have a wonderful summer ❤️☀️

We are in the process of publishing our personal narratives. Students are eager to read each other’s stories and it is such a beautiful sight. Very proud of the incredible work by all Room 101 authors! 🤓🎉❤️

We are exploring motivations for writing, focusing on how writing can help us feel good. We experimented today with taking our writing outside. Something in the breeze & trees helped us all write with ease ❤️ @NaturlCuriosity

Some insight into one child’s design process 😊

[Grade 1/2 B at Northlea @101Northlea]

Our Grade 2 engineering challenge was to build a 3D structures that moves. Many students incorporated wheels and axels into their designs which included a mobile movie theatre, car with a backup motorcycle, and a wiggly wiggle worm. 🔧⚙️💡

[Grade 1/2 B at Northlea @101Northlea]

In science, we are learning about structures and mechanisms. Our Grade 1 students were challenged to build a 3D structure that fits their whole team inside. Excellent engineering from our first group! 🤓 #teamworkmakesthedreamwork

Grateful for B sharing her books from home & wisdom today about Jewish traditions ❤️ ✡️#jewishheritagemonth

Today in Mathematician’s Workshop our expert mathematicians determined that an outline of Jigglypuff is in fact not a polygon 🤓 Very proud of how students are applying their learning in our “Shape of the Day” talk. #gottacatchemall

A very big thank-you to @Northlea_HandS for the beautiful staff appreciation lunch today! Feeling the love! 😊❤️

In Mathematician’s Workshop we are learning how to collect & organize data into a tally chart & represent our results using pictographs. Decision making in Room 101 just took on a whole new level! Love hearing students say “let’s take a vote!” ❤️

Our plant babies have grown beautifully over the last 8 weeks and so have we! Today we took home our plants in celebration of our developing habits of responsibility at school 😊

What a treat it is to have our peers share their wisdom with the class. Thank-you T for helping us understand the Chinese number system & to A for showcasing your beautiful artwork! #studentvoice

[Grade 1/2 B at Northlea @101Northlea]

A beautiful sight during a scheduled break - eager Mathematicians continuing to engage with our “Number of the Day” ❤️

[Grade 1/2 B at Northlea @101Northlea]

We are taking responsibility for our learning as part of our daily closing circle. Together we highlight “stars” from the day and discuss our wishes for tomorrow. This ongoing reflection helps us learn from our mistakes and the exemplary actions of our peers.

[Grade 1/2 B at Northlea @101Northlea]

We have grown our number of the day routine to also include base 10 blocks, ten frames, addition, tally chart, and even or odd. So many opportunities for mathematicians to share their wisdom and help us build our number sense ❤️

[Grade 1/2 B at Northlea @101Northlea]

The perfect photo to summarize what we’re about in Room 101 😍 #TeamworkMakesTheDreamWork

[Grade 1/2 B at Northlea @101Northlea]

A new favourite part of our morning routine - how many different ways can you show this number? Our number of the day increases as the days go by. Thank-you @Calderone_102 for the inspiration ❤️
