Yday, students wanted to look for snails... we found lots of shells instead! We put our collection into groups of 5 and a few counted them all by 5s! We found 285! #earlyyears #kindergarten @OscarPetersonP2 @Ics_Stef #kindergartenmath

The next day we used the pinecones for another math activity - measuring with non standard units. Students measured their partners and compared their heights. #earlyyears #kindergarten @OscarPetersonP2 @Ics_Stef

@OscarPetersonP2 @Ics_Stef Here’s all 172 of them!

Students wanted to collect pinecones during our walk. How many are they? We practiced skip counting by 2s! We counted 172 pinecones!!! #earlyyears #kindergarten @OscarPetersonP2 @Ics_Stef

Was I watching a news conference or some sad gossip reality show? I don’t normally get into political conversations, but today, I’m airing out some frustrations the best way I know how! @ETFOeducators @ETFOPeel @etfopresident

Disappointed with @PeelSchools - Feb12 PAday is being scheduled on a Holy Day. How is that demonstrating inclusivity? Those whom celebrate must choose btwn a cultural/religious celebration or taking NEEDED time to plan... @ETFOeducators @ETFOPeel @etfopresident how is this ok?

[Marilyn @musicleem]

@PeelSchools curious to know if you consulted the Holy day calendar Peel posts and follows every year, when you decided to have a PA day on Feb. 12th for all Elementary schools. Did you know it’s Chinese New Year celebrated by many staff, can you fix this one? #equity

[Sam Hammond @SLAR2023]

In his presser today the Minister of Education said that class sizes are at 15, that teachers are congregating, unmasked, in staff rooms, and that absenteeism is at 40%! #Speechless yet again after another press conference full of unsubstantiated, false, statements!

Bird watching today #walkingcurriculum Ss filled up the bird feeder and recorded how many birds they saw using pictures, numbers and tally marks. Wonder how many we’ll see by the end of the week? @Ics_Stef @OscarPetersonP2 #earlyyearsmath #Kindergarten

Last week- #walkingcurriculum looking for symmetry in the houses and nature around our school. Students also used number blocks and 3D shapes to make their own symmetrical creations. @Ics_Stef @OscarPetersonP2 #earlyyearsmath #kindergarten

[d @dianak__]

Life sized students portraits! Some Q’s during the process: What do you look like? What materials will you use? Who are you? What do you like? What do you want to share about yourself? @OscarPetersonP2 @Ics_Stef #earlyyearsart #belongingcontributing

[d @dianak__]

@mrsmcintyre1m Wondering if these are the midi or mini sized ones?

[d @dianak__]

@JagdevMs @OscarPetersonP2 @PeelSchools I see some symmetry happening too! 👍🏻
