Thank you to @MyVeryOwnBook for donating these books to our school library. I showed our students and they can’t wait to check them out to read in their classroom and at home with their families! ⠀

Thanks to all the Ss that donated online to our winter fundraiser! This year instead of a tree of warmth, we had Ss who donated design an ornament for our Christmas tree! Here are some of the beautiful ornaments that our @ElmDrivePS Ss designed! @peelschools #peelfam #Christmas

THE RESULTS! Today our class found out if their teams qualified for the invitational round for the #WLRC I recorded their reactions. It’s SUPER CUTE ☺️ from over 1500 teams only 500 were chosen. CONGRATS TO THE TEAMS THAT QUALIFIED! @ElmDrivePS @PeelSchools @WonderWorkshop

[Lidia Fumo @LFumster]

TODAY IS THE DAY! But before I let the teams know if they qualified ... a math problem inspired by the #WLRC to see what the probability qualifying might be @wonderworkshop we had variations of Qs to make it more accessible for all Ss in the class! @elmdriveps @PeelSchools 😎🏆

[Lidia Fumo @LFumster]

Pen Licenses have been printed, laminated and handed out. Kiddos were super excited to sign and receive their License today! @ElmDrivePS @PeelSchools

In M5 Ss collaborate to explore how a pulley system works. Ss identify that in order for the system to work it needs 4 parts. A load, force, rope &a pulley. Ss create & assemble their pulley system to open the gate to The Lost City! @ElmDrivePS @WonderWorkshop @PeelSchools #WLRC

Awesome field trip! Exploring and learning about animals that live in our community! #outside #nature #fieldtrip @yourriverwood @PeelSchools @ElmDrivePS

Thank you to the grade 5 students in @MsSpadafora16 class for inviting us to their class Museum. All of your structures look great! @ElmDrivePS @PeelSchools

Ss are using their knowledge of nets to help them build their Box City for Mission 3 of #WLRC While Ss experiment with different strategies to make a net out of a box, others are using @Flipgrid and @PicCollage to document their groups process. @ElmDrivePS @PeelSchools

Ss wrote a letter to persuade the principal to let us get fish for our class inquiry. Ss collected info about fish they were interested in studying & wrote about what their plan of action was. What type of food? Water temp? etc Which fish will thrive? @PeelSchools @ElmDrivePS

[Lidia Fumo @LFumster]

Today Ss decided they needed to practice observation/estimating skills a bit more before beginning our Fish Inquiry. Ss estimated the distance Dash should travel around their peers while using descriptive lang to explain his journey. @ElmDrivePS @PeelSchools @WonderWorkshop

[Lidia Fumo @LFumster]

Ss created a robot character and story for Mission 2 in #WLRC. They used descriptive language to tell the story of their character as they avoided “logs” to get to the yummy food in the trap at the end of the junk yard. @ElmDrivePS @PeelSchools @WonderWorkshop

[Lidia Fumo @LFumster]

Finally received our competition mat so teams can complete Mission 1 in style! Ss are discussing coordinates and estimating distances between trash piles while also problem solving to create their code! #WLRC @WonderWorkshop @ElmDrivePS @PeelSchools

Making addition review alittle more exciting before we dive into the fun stuff. This year, Addition Bowling got an upgrade with these cool new additions to the classroom! Thanks to Jessica for the donation! @ElmDrivePS @PeelSchools #makemathfun
