🍂💚 A little fall spirit is coming to St. Isabel! Check out the fun days ahead as we celebrate Halloween/ Fall Spirit Week together!

[Mrs. Ryan @MsRyan6]

Another week of building relationships, learning through play, and exploring numbers through hands-on activities and games! Students also explored our new Flyleaf text, Ann Can, learned new high-frequency words, and strengthened their phonological and phonemic awareness skills.

[Mrs. Ryan @MsRyan6]

Outdoor learning, literacy centers, exploring patterns, and engaging in lots of authentic writing! We captured so many special moments of our friends challenging themselves last week. Well done! @StIsabelOCSB

Today we collaborated with Mrs. Egan’s class and explored different literacy centers together. In the afternoon we had lots of fun playing with our friends during our free choice Friday block! Have a wonderful long weekend everyone! @StIsabelOCSB

Today we collaborated with Ms. Egan’s class for our first Flyleaf lesson! We explored the number 5 by showing what we know in a variety of ways, and discovered early signs of fall during our outdoor Science exploration. 🍁🍂@StIsabelOCSB

Today we began Grade 1 by focusing on what matters most-building relationships and a caring classroom community. Through play and hands-on exploration, we got to know one another & make connections. We also wrote about our favourite summer highlights! @StIsabelOCSB #ocsbFirstDay

And a new chapter begins!✨ I’m so excited to welcome my Grade 1 learners and reconnect with the wonderful St. Isabel community. Here’s to a year of curiosity, growth, kindness, and lots of smiles! @StIsabelOCSB #ocsbFirstDay

We are critical thinkers! Our friends love collaborating with their peers and sharing their mathematical thinking during Math centers. Ask your child which activities they like the best! @mrgrisongrade1 @StIsabelOCSB 🤍

Mrs. Ryan’s new puppy was our write on inspiration today. Check out the amazing writing our Grade 1 friends did during this activity! I wonder what they will write about “little” Wrigley next! @MeaghanRyan5 @mrgrisongrade1 @StIsabelOCSB 🐾

Our Grade 1 friends are learning all about patterns! Today they practised making growing patterns using a variety of materials. Ss later extended their learning outdoors by drawing and creating patterns with their peers. Well done! @mrgrisongrade1 @StIsabelOCSB 🤍
