Beybladea have taken over our floors lately, so we decided to problem solve while still being able to explore. #cocreatedspace #iteachk #kindergartenexpectations #selfregulationskills #belongingandcontributing #tdsb https://t.co/NDRdy7R9BS

Two things can be true.

1. Children can play, explore and direct their own learning (in fact over 80% of our day is long uninterrupted blocks of play).

2. Educators can embed short, intentional lessons that involve direct instruction to teach specific skills.

#EarthDay today we met up w/ our Grade 7 buddies 2 clean up our community.Thurs we read “The Earth Book” by @toddparr & discussed ways we could help the Earth.We collected 1 bag of garbage & it made us feel happy. How are you helping our Earth today? @Highcastle_TDSB @LC3_TDSB

A new experience for most of our Ss today. What a great experience, as educators “ahhh’d” at the moment. #readingbuddies #grade7 #KindieB @Highcastle_TDSB

@Highcastle_TDSB @tdsb @LC3_TDSB @TDSBLibrary We love it! A new experience for Ss and a feeling of “ahhh” 💕 for educators. Thanks Grade7’s.

When an S said “we can ask each other the answers” after our “I wonder..”. I smiled & said “yes” because in that moment we created an environment where everyone’s ideas matter, their knowledge mattered! #knowledgeispower #inquiry

@MegAnderson1984 @ltldrum These were my choice too! #shelfietalk

[Mrs.Cosburn @KindieBTDSB]

@msgordon90 I'm interested in the book "In My Own Moccasins", I have it on hold at my local library. #shelfietalk

[Mrs.Cosburn @KindieBTDSB]

@AngieRoss076 @Lovely155G I couldn't agree more! Conversations about our learnings will spread, and others who may not understand completely will want to learn and reconcile alongside us. #ShelfieTalk

[Mrs.Cosburn @KindieBTDSB]

@MsRMaguire I did this today, after someone I was speaking with was not knowledgable in "the act". Luckily I had the book with me and I could support my learning. #ShelfieTalk #thisisagoodone #addingittomylist

[Mrs.Cosburn @KindieBTDSB]

@annefoleyrece This is amazing! And a great first step Anne, I may inquire into this as well. #shelfietalk

[Mrs.Cosburn @KindieBTDSB]

@ShelfieTalk @ocsbMrsWilson I think having good conversations like these also allow for others to understand, and take a step forward.

@explorearlyears Yes! To this one! It's wasn't one of my choices. As a woman I would be broken to be treated the way that these women were treated! #ShelfieTalk

@Susy19781978 Basic needs that were necessary to field their crops, traded alcohol with even though it was prohibited to do so...how was this even legal? How does it continue to affect indigenous communities as you said? #shelfietalk

[Mrs.Cosburn @KindieBTDSB]

@MissWhitteker1 How shocking is this...1995! Imagine changing your name? or being forced to by the federal government? #newlearnings #shelfietalk
