Just because we finished Empower doesn't mean we stop practicing! Being flexible with our sounds!

These little Dollar Tree blocks are being put to good use! Our Early Readers are working on creating & reading words, as well as looking for word families by turning the blocks @StrathconaHWDSB

The Tech Crew prepping for their in-class presentations to show peers how Google Translate can be used to take pictures of text to have tricky words, questions or stories read aloud!

Great “minds on” activity to start a lesson with my Gr. 1 groups thanks @kclause3. I see some common spelling patterns in there too students could explore afterwards!

[Katie Clause @kclause3]

Check out some of the words that can be made from just 7 letters. Great job grade 1s. Everyone was able to come up with some on their own. #HWDSBphonics @jlbaynham @SteveYull @RSHWDSB

Thanks for sharing @GSmith_ a great article with an activity teachers can do related to environmental stewardship, plus discussing the importance of kids knowing why they are learning something and why it’s critical to connect it to their life/ experiences

Math Flips! "Ask about ideas, not answers," say @MFAnnie and @JSchwartz10a. Inspired also by @MrsNewell22 and @SteveWyborney, Math Flips are flashcards with two related problems (instead of a problem and an answer). Free downloads at https://t.co/icbe4zQeR6 #mtbos #iteachmath

Great holiday concert yesterday @StrathconaHWDSB. Today @KaitlinRoszell class figured out how many people had a seat for the show using their knowledge of multiplication/ arrays to figure out how many people were cheering them on! Great turn out. Happy holidays!

[Mr. Aglor @mr_aglor]

The @StrathconaHWDSB Tech Crew is excited about learning how to use the https://t.co/CVL1mpqUuJ free Rekenrak app! Great tools for solving addition/ multiplication problems and creating arrays to skip count and multiply using friendly numbers #math

[Mr. Aglor @mr_aglor]

The students in @KaitlinRoszell 4/5 class are learning how to use an open array model to multiply bigger numbers by using friendly numbers! #math

“ I know how to add 475+475... but I don’t know why I bring over a 1” The beauty of dry erase markers - teach regrouping right on the table!

[Mr. Aglor @mr_aglor]

The Tech Crew @StrathconaHWDSB doing their weekly assignment. This week we are converting paper-pencil tasks to digital tasks to differentiate how we are able to complete work in class using audio recordings, text-to-speech and word prediction software to respond @therealmrkelly

The gr.1 “Boys Crew” loving the RAZ Kids reading app. Students listening to the story then recording themselves reading the story after. Hearing themselves read = big smile and confidence boost!

[Mr. Aglor @mr_aglor]

So proud of the @StrathconaHWDSB cross country team! Before school practices paid off! They all did great!
