Love this task!!! Enrichment isn’t teaching up its digging deeper. How can we use what we know about subtilizing and shape attributes to quickly count the number of sides! @gfletchy thank you!

DRAW IT▪️BUILD IT▪️GEOBOARD IT!! How many ways can you represent a shape? Learning regular and irregular shapes using various manipulatives.

Draw it! Build it! Geoboard it! In small groups, we are working on representing shapes various ways. #math #geometry #Kindergarten @ms_dinsmore

Learning #sightwords !!! An interactive word wall gets kids up and moving while learning to recognize and read high frequent words. Once students learn a word, it’s hidden around the class for them to find and use when needed 👀🔍 #Kindergarten #literacy

DAY 1 vs DAY 2: students were exploring area to determine which island is the biggest. After discussion, observing and modeling, students realized they needed to fix their islands. In just one day, student’s measurement skills improved #handsonlearning #Kindergarten

Exploring #area using different math manipulatives! Students are practicing the rules of measurement and working together to compare surfaces around the room. #kindergarten

Our first investigation into measuring area in #Kindergarten. We are trying to figure out which island is the largest. What do you notice? I see a counting strategy as a student draws a line on each card she counts to make sure she does not miss one or double count. @TeatherBoard

We have been exploring #conceptcircles in Kindergarten. The children have become comfortable with creatively inventing new ways to represent numbers. I noticed some algebraic reasoning emerging from this group. @MarkChubb3 @kristinwillms @mrs_dt @PamToque8

Let’s get creative!!🎨🧶🧩✂️ last week I had the opportunity to explore my creative side at a #makerspace workshop!! Each station was connected to the Ontario math curriculum working on… https://t.co/dA55mcpkAm

Such a fun way to help students develop their geometry skills! Could easily be altered to fit other subject areas like science, where students would have to describe animals and their characteristics to their partner instead #barriergame #collaboration

[Mrs. Hensley @Hensley5thgrade]

SO COOL hearing and discussing students passions today. I cannot wait to get into @geniushour full force this year!! @MapleWarriors #warriorscreate

[Ms. K Dinsmore @ms_dinsmore]

Today in tech class we are all working on our #geniushour projects!

So excited to explore and take risks at #makerspace !!! Learning everyday from the amazing @mrmartinEDU

Today is #WorldMentalHealthDay and I think it is important to educate ourselves on how we can promote happiness and wellness within us and others. Always remember "You are braver than you believe, stronger than you seem, and smarter than you think." ❤️

[blvckvrt @JessyBergy]

Everyone has their demons. But remember, what makes you the person you are is HOW you overcome them on a daily basis. I know this will be easier for some people than others. But stay true to who you are and learn from every defeat.
