@hmparlee That’s an amazing experience to remember

[Ms. Bakhtawar @MsBakhtawar]

@hmparlee That’s such a cool idea

Ss find the area of their rectangle using manipulates

Scientists and artists! We’re multitalented ✨😌

[Mrs. Parlee @hmparlee]

Grade 1 scientists were hard at work today brightening up the school’s front entrance drawing things that remind them of Spring! There were so many beautiful pictures of rainbows, flowers, insects, weather patterns, and animals that we see in springtime🌸🌼🌿🐞🦋☀️🌈 @MsBakhtawar

[Mrs. Parlee @hmparlee]

We are builders!🚧 Ss worked in pairs to construct a bridge using popsicle sticks as their material and tape as their fastener. It took some rethinking and rearranging of the materials to make sure they created a strong enough bridge to hold our toy car 🚗 @MsBakhtawar

[Ms. Bakhtawar @MsBakhtawar]

@_msquijano That looks fun! Gr.1’s might also make boats to compare materials that absorb water next week, so im thinking of using ur idea of making a sail too, just to add detail 😄

[Mrs. Parlee @hmparlee]

We had our first Empowering Girls Club day! What does it mean to be a girl? Grades 5&6 girls are here to understand each other, lift each other up, and learn more about other women in our world who have made/are making a big difference. Today we learned about @Jamaaad 🏀

[Ms. Bakhtawar @MsBakhtawar]

Ss used their prior knowledge of flat and curved faces to explore why shapes like cube and rectangular prism make great bases while cone and sphere fit best at the top

[Mrs. Parlee @hmparlee]

Using 3D objects to construct the tallest tower! @MsBakhtawar spun a wheel that determined the next shape that had to be used while building their towers. What happens when we try to stack something on top of a cone?

[Ms. Bakhtawar @MsBakhtawar]

@FMISonthego @FMPSD @MyMarkaz Love this 💡 I am also doing gr1 building things unit and really appreciate the ideas 👍

[Ms. Bakhtawar @MsBakhtawar]

Students show their super creations from our centres today

[Ms. Bakhtawar @MsBakhtawar]

Ss connected science and math to make 3-D structures with marshmallows and toothpicks, classic fun time ✨

[Ms. Bakhtawar @MsBakhtawar]

Gr.1s had a great time learning about 3D shapes like cube, rectangular prism, cone, sphere and cylinder through these centres, and even connected to building things in science 👍

[Mrs. Parlee @hmparlee]

Some fun was had during our new 3D Objects math centers! @MsBakhtawar

We used our math vocabulary while comparing our meter sticks to various objects around the room. “The window is longer than the meter stick!” • “The desk is so much shorter!” @MsBakhtawar #cjmlearns

[Ms. Bakhtawar @MsBakhtawar]

@CJMCBE @MrsBains congratulations and good luck!

[Mrs. Parlee @hmparlee]

It’s NOT a box… it’s a.. Race car! Birthday cake! Cruise ship! Ss looked at the regular box through their own perspective and crated something unique!

[Ms. Bakhtawar @MsBakhtawar]

Ss displayed learning about Urban and Rural areas by sorting associated images using a Venn diagram for the first time !

[Mrs. Parlee @hmparlee]

What do animals do in Winter? While reading a story about animals that migrate, Ss were able to pick out a couple of the seven sacred animals! We then researched which of the other seven sacred animals migrate. @MsBakhtawar

[Ms. Bakhtawar @MsBakhtawar]

We read Not A Box and learned about perspective, to interpret things with our diverse imaginations and draw outside the box 📦🖍🐰

[Ms. Bakhtawar @MsBakhtawar]

Never knew 100 days of school meant 100 times the fun 😍 so great to be back in the classroom 💕
