I miss all the little smiles at school but I’ve been soaking up this special time& making sweet memories on mat leave with my son! So happy to see his love for books at almost 4 months, even insisting to hold them himself 📚 *TY to those who have gifted so many of his favourites*

On Oct. 6 last year one of my G2 students brought me in a bolivian rainbow pepper plant! I promised I would take care of it in our class and plant it in my garden this summer. I wanted to send an update on how it’s doing. Thank you H and family! I really hope this finds you!🌶️🤍

Elio Andrew ☀️🤍

At 9:29 am on July 11th, Zach & I welcomed our son to the world. Named after the sun + sunshine, Elio has already brought us and our loved ones so much joy and light. 💛

So thankful to be home + healthy with our beautiful boy. Bright days ahead.

The name jar has arrived! Thank you G1/2 for coming up with such beautiful names for our son! Before leaving I told students Mr. Zach + I were having a hard time coming up with a name & they all offered to help! Thank you to Ms. Jackson for stopping by my 🏡 to drop them off 🫶🏼

We have been working on reading and responding in both grade 1 + 2. Reading a text, comprehending and answering questions about the text is important. G1 + G2 both read a different book on epic and responded to the q’s in there reading response books using full sentences.

[Mrs. Sanchez (Spratt) @MsSprattocsb]

An early finisher favourite! I always love reading their sentences and notes left behind at the end of the day!

Nice weather, come back soon! ☀️ reminiscing on our outdoor gym class Friday. We had so much fun playing a class game of soccer after spending a number of classes practicing our passing, dribbling and shooting skills.

[Mrs. Sanchez (Spratt) @MsSprattocsb]

Our financial literacy unit has come to an end. We will continue to sprinkle money talks into our learning until the end of the school year and encourage all students to keep practicing at home too 😃. Please check front pocket of the agenda to see how your child is doing!

[Mrs. Sanchez (Spratt) @MsSprattocsb]

Taking body breaks in our learning is so important to move our bodies and refocus our minds! Today we did a Super Yoga where we transition through a number of poses quickly! 🫶🏼

This week we are growing our knowledge around Earth Week and how we can be good stewards of the environment. 🌍 Our focus today was on our oceans and waterways. Students explored National geographic’ perspective on the issue and also watched the short film “A Whale’s tale”.

[Mrs. Sanchez (Spratt) @MsSprattocsb]

Grade 1s had fun mixing colours and exploring the primary colours in visual arts today! 🎨

[Mrs. Sanchez (Spratt) @MsSprattocsb]

Grade ones finished their Science and Energy work a little early 4th block so we were able to enjoy some sunshine at the end of the day!☀️

[Mrs. Sanchez (Spratt) @MsSprattocsb]

We are almost through our financial literacy unit! 💰 Students have been working so hard to build their knowledge. We will continue to sprinkle money talks and money problems throughout our final months of school as many students can benefit from further practice!

[Mrs. Sanchez (Spratt) @MsSprattocsb]

Working on some soccer skills in the gym today! Dribbling and passing ⚽️

[Mrs. Sanchez (Spratt) @MsSprattocsb]
