Every year, my teaching partner @2hal and I make this anchor chart with our classes. This year, she upped her game by adding @justinbieber to her chart and explained “if JB is in our classroom, you MUST interrupt my reading group bc I have to go tell Mrs. Anger”! ❤️❤️ #Belieber
This morning we were lucky enough to be part of a Pools to Schools presentation with #paralympic athlete Matthew Cabraja. We learned about swimming with a visual impairment & perseverance. Such amazing ?s and connections from our Ss as we learn about differences and #inclusion
Grade 1 pumpkin patch came to TPS today! My favourite Halloween activity 🎃 Each student “picked” a pumpkin and investigations filled our day! How many cubes tall, how many links around, how many lines, will it sink or float! So much excitement!
@Alexander1Ej@MandyCleland1 I’m so excited! And so are they! We’re going to front load some learning, make some mini models and choose our favourite components to make for our class one outside the wonder window!
Our 1st #inquiry was sparked today. Last week a squirrel visited our feeder & Ss were pumped. Today a student made an obstacle course w/ loose parts. Insert @CreatuveMissP idea to watch Squirrel Ninja Warrior Course & here we go…. Up next materials/structures focus & then design
Our love of learning #braille combined with our obsession with pop-its resulted in a great partner activity today during quiet time. Make a letter on the pop-it Braille cell and see if your partner can guess it! @CreativeMissP#inclusion
Happy Thanksgiving! Have you ever wondered what story retell looks like when accommodated for vision needs..... well of course it’s a turkey with tactile feathers! Everyone wanted one! @CreativeMissP you are a genius bringing my vision to life! ❤️❤️#inclusive
This year has been such a learning curve for me on how to accommodate my program for vision needs. Ss have been so interested in braille that Mrs. Goodwin had everyone create a braille mystery word. Each day during Mindful Minutes, we try & figure out the word. #inclusion
Wonder window #inquiry is my fav part of our year. We started w/ caterpillars & introduced bird feeder last week. We’ve already had a few visitors! @CreativeMissP has made our inquiry #inclusive w/ brailled qr code bird sounds. Excited for where they want to take this!
Hi again Twitter! It’s been a bit! If I’m being honest, posting was an “extra” that I couldn’t have on my plate the last year & a half, BUT.... I’m back in the game & my focus will be #inquiry and #inclusion as I navigate this year in Grade 1 w/ Mrs. Goodwin & @CreativeMissP
