A look into our Writer’s Workshop. Today our compositions were of Procedural Writing. Each leader was on task and had the opportunity to have a visit with a quiet friendly monster.

Incorporating Indigenous Culture with Art and showing students the importance of embracing culture. These leaders loved making a Dream Catcher of their own.#handsonlearning #crosscurricular @dewitt_jillian @Connaughtcomets

Everyone needs a friendly monster to help with writing.
“The monster actually helped me stay motivated!” “I love having the monster learn with me!” Their excitement made my day! #writersworkshop #effectivepractice @Hina_Aamir02 @Connaughtcomets

Learning about germs with Mrs. Aamir is a BLAST! Each leader got to try the experiment out themselves. There was a high level of engagement for this learning activity! #crosscurricular #handsonlearning @Hina_Aamir02 @Connaughtcomets
