Created and then calculated the circumference of our flower crowns @SACTVDSB

This week’s reading centres have @SACTVDSB students reading maps, completing logic puzzles, learning and playing new card games as well as learning to tie a variety of knots. @TVDSBLiteracy

This month students are exploring all the ways we read other than a novel. Today we learned how to play some new board games by reading the instructions. Reading with a purpose. #TVDSBLiteracy @SACTVDSB

Warmed my heart to see ELLs interacting in new ways with peers as students enjoyed I Spy as part of today’s soft start @SACTVDSB

@justybubPE @MillsHPE this is a cool variation!

⁦Ss sewed spirit bears in recognition of the comforts and culture taken from children at residential schools and to demonstrate the deep connection and respect Indigenous people have with nature. So grateful to collaborate with ⁦@dcadieux5⁩ in the LLC ⁦@SACTVDSB⁩!

Used manipulatives to represent our 4 monolingual Ss, 18 bilingual Ss and 4 trilingual Ss. Domino pips on the left of the tile represent the number of letters in the language name and the pips on the right showing the number of speakers.
Outside the box thinking @SACTVDSB!

The grade 5s and 6s @SACTVDSB have enjoyed checking in with a variety of 'scales'. We all get a good laugh when someone imitates their picture instead of typing the number.

@SabrinaTyrer Congrats!!

It's still a learning process for me, but teaching health with inclusive language such as person with a penis and person with a vagina has made all the difference to some of my students. What's good for some is beneficial to all!

[Molly Spratt @Spratt_Molly]

We expanded our vocabulary through games @SACTVDSB. Our read aloud has many challenging words. Students listened for words they did not know and created their own 'balderdash' (1 real definition and 2 fake). For each person they tricked they got a point! @TVDSBLiteracy

I can see these 3 picture writing prompts as a great low floor, high ceiling activity. Accessible for so many students including ELLs. I am sure the students would also love creating their own 3 picture series for us to use. @TVDSBLiteracy https://t.co/KklkHZXshw

This is such a fun idea! #reading #edchat https://t.co/ltza55HA8M

While walking to the gym today, instead of the usual 'What are we playing?' a student excitedly told me about the latest plot developments in his partner novel. He remarked, "It is getting so good!" Thanks @dcadieux5 for helping the Gr.8s find engaging novels to read together!

@sbruyns @SACTVDSB @MrsFletcher13 Thank you for visiting! The students were so proud to share!

@kimanders0n There is a cool international art installation. Part in Dublin and part in Toronto that depicts Irish emigrating to North America during the famine. It would be cool to hear what the studnets would create to connect their home countries and Canada. https://t.co/xP3SvinevN.

@kimanders0n I shared some slides incase anything interests you! Some decoding activities using the Irish alphabet sounds, Irish sports, trivia etc.

@kraekerc @kimanders0n We're cognizant about doing games that involve students using individual equipment so that germs are less likely to spread via shared balls/equipment. All of tvdsb has the same PE covid measures documents.
