Today we celebrate First Nation, Métis and Inuit cultures. We will learn together, eat together and dance together! Off to a fantastic start! @AbbotsfordSD #nationalindigenouspeoplesday
@MatsquiElem has been busy studying all kinds of lifecycles! Today we released our 🦋… Along with @megswiebe and @TammySiganakis our classes have been observing and learning about the process of metamorphosis. What a great day to send these beauties on their way. #abbyschools
Despite the 🌧 @megswiebe and I took our @MatsquiElem kids to explore our local 🏞. We checked out the stream where 🐟 spawn, discussed protecting the habitat and leaving things as we found them. We climbed in 🌳, on 🪨, and 🏃🏼♀️ through fields. #abbyschools#getoutside@perfinker
For today's @MatsquiElem trip to the 🏞️ students were challenged to collaborate & construct 🦫 dams strong enough to stop the flow of 🌊.
So grateful to have wonderful colleagues like @edavenport79 to make these learning opportunities possible.
It was a privilege to share with the @The_DLDozen some things we are doing @MatsquiElem. It was day of learning for us as well… we stretched our 🧠 and used our imaginations. We got our 🙏🏼 dirty and created masterpieces. #getoutside#walkingcurriculum#abbyschools

Proud teacher moment!
I noticed students loved playing "teacher" during centers so I added it as a Word Word activity for students to practice their "Heart Words" and "Flash Words" for the week. @MatsquiElem
