Students are engaged in inquiry, exploring how animals survive in the winter. We learned that they hibernate, migrate or adapt. We extended our learning through imaginative play. We used natural loose parts to make dens & habitats @sttimothy3 @WCDSBLearns @wcdsbNTIP #OntEd #FDK

A critical period of brain development happens during early childhood. It provides the perfect time to:
Encourage a love of learning 🧡
Focus on breadth instead of depth 🎯
Pay attention to emotional intelligence 🙌
...and more.👇

Learning in kindergarten is a sensory & kinaesthetic experience. We have been learning about snow through literacy, inquiry and play ❄️ 🌨️ We even made our own “snow” & examined it like scientists! @sttimothy3 @WCDSBLearns @wcdsbNTIP #OntEd #FDK #Inquiry #PlayBasedLearning
