In the Kinder Farm house we believe that when children have a sense of belonging and understand that our differences are something to celebrate, they thrive because they feel safe, nurtured and valued. https://t.co/Z6LbPMMBVg

Snowmen at night by Caralyn Buehner. This book is not only a great story but the pictures made for a great math talk! #highexpectations @monckps #tldsblearns
These adorable snowmen were a blast to make! 1st roll a dice. 2nd build a block tower using the number you rolled. 3rd cut paper towel roll to the same height as your tower. Next get creative. Show ur number in as many different ways as you can! #highexpectations@tldsb @monckps
Art is as natural as sunshine and as vital as nourishment - MaryAnn F. Kohl 🎨 Can’t wait to get messy making beautiful masterpieces with our students! #TLDSBarts#workinprogress#artstudio @monckps
We call this game Sight Word Popcorn. Together we work to pop all the ”popcorn” off the parachute. Once off, we opened the popcorn to find a sight word. We shouted our word and then sorted the words into groups by # of letters. Repeat! Ss approved, was a huge hit! @monckps
The Best Part of ME! Let’s remember to celebrate ourselves more and compare ourselves less. Let’s celebrate our differences and encourage others to be who they are. @RichterJ_24 @monckps #
On the hunt for signs of Spring! We had a blast on our nature walk today. It was awesome watching the Ss work together in small groups and document their own finds. Being out in nature sparked so many wonders. @monckps #TLDSBlearns#outdoorclassroom
Today was our first trial at spending the whole morning block outside. This included our lesson, some whole group activities and exploration. Afterwards we reflected with our Ss and all were thrilled with the extra outdoor time. #TLBSBlearns#outdoorclassroom
Collaborating with our SK French Immersion friends and celebrating our uniqueness with self portraits, Les Auto-Portrait... @e_grose@ShanCharland2 @monckps #TLDSBlearns
Lesson #3: We need to present children with all sorts of choices, allowing the opportunity to experiment. The power of self-regulation as a process and not a program lies in the choosing. #SelfRegLessons
The practice of positive affirmations. "We are what we think. All that we are arises with our thoughts. With our thoughts, we make the world." -Buddha @ShanCharland2 @monckps #tldsblearns
Ts inspired to make music in a new way, thinking about how science & technology can create music with circuit boards. Using visual language of scratch to create interesting soundscapes & the system that triggers those sounds #tldsblearns@ryan_psmith@makeymakey@artseco#STEAM
Had a great time learning about STEAM through a hands on, play based approach. The highlight of my day was learning about claymation. Meshing art and technology together is awesome! Can't wait to try this with my Ss. @ryan_psmith@JelynneS#TLDSBlearns
