What an incredible day of learning about, connecting with and being of service to our local estuary. Thank you #projectwatershed for teaching us about our place- past, present and future.

Celebrating spring equinox we explored the connection between light/dark and fractions. What do we know about 1/2 ? #sd71

Pi day fun. So much collaboration and communication. Thank you @MathforLove #sd71

[Ms Yager. she/her @MsYager1]

So many different ways to explore the human body systems. What do we notice? What do we wonder? What connections can we make? #sd71

Reflecting on 2022 by collecting data. Ss were buzzing around the room sharing their ideas. They collaboratively analyzed their data-what was most common, least common, most interesting, and favourite response. Next steps-deciding how to present their findings #sd71

Back to school = back to the boards. So much engagement in this #thinkingclassroom #sd71

@msdavis_tweets @QuilchenaC Amazing bud. Love this

@msdavis_tweets @QuilchenaC What did you use to create?

@msdavis_tweets @QuilchenaC These are so amazing

[Ms Yager. she/her @MsYager1]

@msdavis_tweets @loater @QuilchenaC So much fun. You are the best

We looked at pumpkins through an artistic, mathematical and scientific lens. First we sketched, then we measured and estimated. Finally, we learned about the scientific method to explore the question, “how many rubber bands does it take to explode a pumpkin?”

So much discussion and engagement at the boards today #buildingthinkingclassrooms #sd71

[Ms Yager. she/her @MsYager1]

So proud of my students positive attitude and weather resilience as we applied our understanding of Newtons laws of motion to improving our bike skills. Making learning connections, having fun and getting wet.

Students collected data about our forest : coniferous and deciduous trees. How can you use cubes to communicate and represent your findings? #sd71

[Ms Yager. she/her @MsYager1]

@msdavis_tweets Thanks bud. Miss creating and teaching with you

[Ms Yager. she/her @MsYager1]

Reflecting on growth mindset and perseverance before taking on our thinking challenge for the day #buildingthinkingclassrooms #growthmindset #sd71

[Ms Yager. she/her @MsYager1]

Truth Reconciliation in Math. Ss first explored with materials to deepen their understanding of these ratios and relationships. Then we explored residential school and MMIW statistics. Data helps deepen our understanding of the world and its wrongs. When we know we can do better.

[Ms Yager. she/her @MsYager1]

Kicking off our first science class students experimented with sports equipment reflecting on “what science is represented in these materials?” So much prior knowledge and connections as we embark on learning more about forces and motion

Our first day of @thinkingclssrms #vnps was a success. Students listened to each other’s ideas and tried finding multiple solutions to the farmer problem. Thank you @pgliljedahl

[Ms Yager. she/her @MsYager1]

Building connections with place and self. We explored our learning forest and found our first sit spots where we listened, looked and sketched. Can you spot them? #sd71
