I created some graphics to explain #ibpyp #transdisciplinary connections today as I have Ts who are new to being specialists as part of my team this year. Are these helpful? What would you add? #SSISlearns

First open day in a long time and our Grade 3s taught their parents how to use @tinkercad to design furniture for the sustainable tiny house project. #BCISonline #BCIScommunity

Last day of school. ✅ What a wild ride this semester has been! Over 4 months of online learning and being away from home, but we learned we can do it even when pushed to our limits. Sharing the poem I wrote for our final student assembly.

Asking for student feedback each week on their art room environment has had an impact on student agency. Respecting and responding to voice and choice has encouraged greater ownership. Likes, dislikes and needs are all discussed each week #BCISpirit #studentagency

A great experience integrating MakerSpace into the art curriculum to give our students a real world design project. Using our BCIS Creative Cycle allowed our students to apply design thinking throughout the unit of inquiry. #BCISpirit @MrAlexDesigns

Our G2s have been designing products to advertise BCIS' annual Spring in the City event. Ss analysed existing products using FALL - Function, Audience, Looks and Layout - then worked in teams to design & create their products to meet the themes & specs they identified #BCISpirit
