The Crayon Box that Talked story showed us that we should celebrate our differences. In a short time together as 3B, I’m so grateful to see how kind, accepting and empathetic these students are. @GEVSchool

Welcome to Grid City. We coded our way through the day. Time for DPA? Code to the gym! Time for literacy? Code to the library! @GEVSchool

Today 3B turned my coffee table into a giant grid. We coded paths to visit friends and played a fruit matching game by describing different locations. @GEVSchool

[Mr.B @Mr_Bourque_]

In 3B we are learning how to recognize different points of view and perspectives. We read “ The Day the Crayons Quit” and discussed the perspective of each colour. We talked about how each colour feels and why they might feel that way! @GEVSchool

Today we read “An Awesome Book Of Thanks” and learned that we have many things to be thankful for. After, we talked about things we are grateful for and started our own classroom gratitude jar 🙌@GEVSchool

[Mr.B @Mr_Bourque_]

Today 3B took a look at some positive affirmations. Everyone chose one that was meaningful to them and practiced saying it out loud. After, we completed a fitness challenge together and learned that WE are strong, WE are powerful, and WE can do hard things!💪💪💪@GEVSchool

Partitioning a whole, representing, counting, and naming fractions.... today we put it all together in our small group! @MsRWatson @LisaKellyVP #GECDSBSLP2020

[Mr.B @Mr_Bourque_]

We have been using Flip Grid to help share our math strategies. The students can create their own videos to help communicate their learning. Let’s not forgot about all the cool Flip Grid features! #GECDSBSLP2020 @MsRWatson @LisaKellyVP

Today in a our small group meetings we practiced using our new skills and language to describe different types of pizza. We noticed this pizza has olives on 3/4 and green peppers on 1/4! All this learning is making me hungry ! #GECDSBSLP2020 @MsRWatson @LisaKellyVP
