What an incredible ADST & SEL journey with gr 7s. Dived deep in2 anxiety, learned abt trauma responses w @KatiMorton, made stress balls, identified negative beliefs, discussed toxic positivity and sewed a positive affirmation in 10 lessons! #sd38learn #rtla38 @ThomasKiddsd38

[KiddLibrary @ThomasKiddLib]

The Goldilocks Challenge was so much fun. Our gr 3/4s worked collaboratively to build the just right chair for our friend Goldilocks. Learned seeing young hands using screws and screwdrivers! Breaking stereotypes in our learning space! Tools are for everybody! #rtla38 #sd38learn

Future community planners at work @ThomasKiddLib. Our gr 2/3 did a community planning project in our learning commons. Reviewed community vocab on quizlet, explored world communities on Osmo, planned and created community using loose parts! #rtla38 #sd38learn

[KiddLibrary @ThomasKiddLib]

Our #LLCgrant2023 inquiry is shaping up. How can we help our Ss become more self-aware? We started with SEL lessons in Div 1 focusing on anxiety. Watched & discussed @KatiMorton videos on #trauma and #mentalhealth. Weaved in @ADST with @SEL - made stress balls. #rtla38 #sd38learn

It's #roalddahl mania. Div. 3 @ThomasKiddLib dives into the #roalddahl kit and finds a #justright book for themselves. Can't wait to hear their booktalks and reviews! #rtla38 #sd38learn

[KiddLibrary @ThomasKiddLib]

Look who visited @ThomasKiddLib . Thank you Mr. and Mrs. Tolman for bringing in your rescue dog to visit our Ss. We learned so much about keeping safe boundaries with dogs, respecting their role, and appreciating their calm presence. #sd38learn #rtla38

Collaborating with K/1 classes this term and we are absolutely loving the Pillars of Literacy document. It is helping us make a solid connection between growing literacy with our youngest learners and best practice & collaboration in our school library.

Did you take any photos of Richmond this week? https://t.co/9GSo6weQez

[Richmond Public Library @RPLBC]

Have you got two minutes to share your feedback with us? We want to hear from you! https://t.co/r10gDzFpYS

[Greta Thunberg @GretaThunberg]

Take that in. Then try wrapping your head around the fact that we’re only seeing the beginning of a destabilising planet, while remembering that GHG emissions are still rising and the companies largely causing this are making record profits.

A bit concerning, don’t you think?
