Doing our part to deck the Allenby halls. Happy Holidays, ya filthy animals! @AllenbyPS_TDSB

@MmeBedder @ROMtoronto @AllenbyPS_TDSB Sweet albatross. 😂 I love that part of the museum.

Celebrating Canada’s first World Cup finals appearance since 1986 with @TylerAshford and @msichiyen! @AllenbyPS_TDSB

[Heather Ichiyen @msichiyen]

Getting in the World Cup spirit. Students are plotting where members of team Canada grew up on a map of Canada. Thanks @dansgotclass @AllenbyPS_TDSB

[Heather Ichiyen @msichiyen]

3Time is centre time. This group was learning about word building while others worked on math with @dansgotclass, read a book from our social studies browsing bin, or worked on Technolo3 (😜)to build typing skills. @TylerAshford @AllenbyPS_TDSB

How many elastics will it take to pop the pumpkin? Thanks for including us in your super fun estimating activity, @TylerAshford and @MmeBedder! @msichiyen @AllenbyPS_TDSB

[Tyler Ashford @TylerAshford]

We had a great time popping a pumpkin this morning! Inspired by @howie_hua, we estimated how many rubber bands it would take for a pumpkin burst. The catch? Our guesses had to fit in specific mathematical categories to win! 🎃 @MmeBedder @dansgotclass @msichiyen

The grade 3/4s are co-creating a map of Canada and a map of Ontario. Are the places we brainstormed actually in Canada? Where are they? What tools can we use to find out? @dansgotclass @AllenbyPS_TDSB @TylerAshford

[Heather Ichiyen @msichiyen]

Using our rounding skills to crack a code and figure out who hacked our school. Thank you @TylerAshford for this super engaging activity. @AllenbyPS_TDSB

[Tyler Ashford @TylerAshford]

We took to the halls to practice rounding and solve a mystery. Our class managed to crack the case! 💻🕵️‍♀️

[Dan Roberts @dansgotclass]

We loved practicing our rounding by playing the Hacker Roundup courtesy of @TylerAshford. Can you find the clues and catch the hacker @MichelleLaMar15? @AllenbyPS_TDSB

[Dan Roberts @dansgotclass]

@schooledbypayne @TDSB_IT Same here.

[Dan Roberts @dansgotclass]

Talking about and practicing rules for learning outdoors with a nature scavenger hunt with @msichiyen. @AllenbyPS_TDSB

[Dan Roberts @dansgotclass]

Apologies to Room 211 parents for the lack of a Friday email. My TDSB email account is not working. As soon as it is back up again, I will send out our weekly update.

[Dan Roberts @dansgotclass]

@AllenbyPS_TDSB Challenge accepted! Thanks, Mrs O’Toole! Lots of good struggling happening here.

[Dan Roberts @dansgotclass]

Today we worked on our perseverance by taking the “one-cut geometry challenge”. What shapes can you cut out of the centre of a piece of paper using only one straight cut? @AllenbyPS_TDSB

[Dan Roberts @dansgotclass]

Focusing on developing our growth mindsets this week. We enjoyed this challenging task: can you recreate this shape using only scissors? @AllenbyPS_TDSB

[Dan Roberts @dansgotclass]

WIM Challenge #2: Fewest squares. Really cool to see the struggle and learning with this activity. Try it at home! @AllenbyPS_TDSB

[Dan Roberts @dansgotclass]

Week of Inspirational Math Challenge 1! Four fours: can you make the numbers 1-20 using four 4s and operation symbols?
