Really excited to follow up the Blumenort Celebration of Art with the Hanover Festival of Art at the Clear Spring Mall. On until Sunday, go checkout all the incredible talent. @BlumenortHSD
Got to chat today with Susan Lindsey @ClimateManitoba about extreme weather due to climate change. We’ve been learning about asking big questions to move our learning forward. Thanks for helping us grow our knowledge about climate change (and learning). #HSDlearns@BlumenortHSD
5/6D is learning about Infographics in order to better communicate the message behind their environmental issue inquiry project. We’re looking at the Infographics of other scientists to hone our content. Today’s focus, use language viewers can understand.#hsdlearns@BlumenortHSD
@JodyRReimer@AEDerocher @HalCaswell Referring to your infographics in my class... showing an example of what a real life science poster looks like... scientists in the making.
We’re building our knowledge about Zebra Mussels and their environmental impact in MB. We’re using a shared Google doc to combine the knowledge we have built and set criteria about how to use it to maximize learning. @BlumenortHSD#HSDLearns#bengalslearn
Establishing testing criteria as we test our favourite products and examine our role within our small groups. After all, bubble gum, Tic Tacs and chocolate bars are always a good idea - especially days before spring break. @BlumenortHSD#bengalslearn#HSDlearns
Literacy collaboration concluded as we reflected on the C of Collaboration. How does working collaboratively make me feel? How do I feel teaching my buddy something new? Check out our Documentation Panel of the whole learning experience. #HSDlearns#bengalslearn@BlumenortHSD
Literacy collaboration continued with a second meeting where we read our non-fiction texts, our ice cream recipes. The reward was the ice cream treat. Reading is sweet! #HSDlearns@BlumenortHSD#bengalslearn#ILovetoReadmonth
We teamed up with our grade 2 buddies for some literacy collaboration. Our first meeting, Had us exploring hyper docs together to view some videos and read about making ice cream. #ILoveToReadMonth#HSDlearns@BlumenortHSD#bengalslearn
Our Grade 3-6 students are working through their final “Valentine’s Day Hoedown Throwdown” Dress Rehearsal. Y’all are welcome to join us tomorrow afternoon at 1:30pm and once again at 6:30pm for our public performances.
I love it when students can realize and describe their own learning and growth.

Where do decimals live? Who are the neighbouring numbers?We’re modelling numbers, comparing values, discussing patterns and making observations. Why is 1.8 larger than 1.254? Can you prove it? #bengalslearn#hsdlearns@BlumenortHSD
Our new paper is out now, exploring the future of ringed seals in a warming Arctic. A lack of snow and earlier ice melt is projected to have an impact on pup survival, with big population consequences.

Conceptualizing decimal place value all the way to the ten thousandth decimal point. Examining the relationship between multiplying and dividing, while identifying patterns within the organization of numbers. #hsdlearns@BlumenortHSD
