It wasn’t as windy as the past few days here @Seaside_elem so we took our silent reading to the outdoors classroom for some sunshine☀️🤩 @HRCE_NS @HRCEHealthPromo

We sure are missing our EPA’s after just one day!! Chloe wanted to show her support and made a sign for us to hang up in our window 💕💕 @Seaside_elem @CUPE_Media @CUPE_NSSBCU @CUPE5047 @HRCE_NS @HRCE_StudentSer

Each group worked sooo hard on mastering their simple machine!! The teamwork and communication shown made me one proud teacher 🫶🏻🥰 @Seaside_elem @HRCE_NS #Science

Students in 5 Murphy worked so hard on their biography posters!! Love seeing all the new information they learned and colour they added 🤩🤩 @Seaside_elem @HRCE_NS @HRCEHealthPromo

We practiced team work, communication and following directions today in 5 Murphy by rearranging our classroom 🙂 It was so nice to see them working together and directing each other where the tables needed to go! @Seaside_elem @HRCEHealthPromo @HRCE_NS

Today @Seaside_elem we learned about what the most efficient way to measure volume would be; a cubic centimetre or metre ! We created our own cubic metre and estimated how many of us would fit inside✨we successfully fit 15 students inside our cubic metre✨@HRCE_Math @HRCE_NS

Ms.Carter & Ms.Murphy’s class joined together today to create Snowman Pop Art ☃️ This fun art activity also ties in with our math unit in lines 📉📈 @HRCE_Math @HRCE_NS @Seaside_elem @HRCEHealthPromo

We spent the afternoon in 5Murphy giving each other compliments on our compli-mats ❤️🫶🏻 @HRCE_NS @Seaside_elem @HRCESchoolsPlus @HRCEHealthPromo @hrce

We aren’t excited about 6 more weeks of winter but we will colour our groundhogs anyways!! 🕳️🐿️#GroundhogDay2023 @Seaside_elem @HRCE_NS

@kngallan here are the instructions! (I found it ran very smooth by first showing them how to set up their game board and THEN going over the instructions on how to play!!)

We are practicing our fact fluency by playing a game of ‘Spiral’ 🌀 @Seaside_elem @HRCE_Math @HRCE_NS @Krista_30

We added some new flexible seating options in our class today 🤗 @HRCE_NS @HRCESchoolsPlus @Seaside_elem @hrc

We had some hard working excavators in class today! Students worked with just toothpicks to see how many artifacts (chocolate chips) they could excavate without breaking them. Some chose to break the cookie apart, others chose to keep it whole! So fun🍪 @Seaside_elem @HRCE_NS

[Brittany Murphy @mss_murphy]

Today in math we played ‘Island Quest’ 🏝️Whoever has the most treasure (perimeter) at the end wins!!! They loved it so much my partner asked to play a second round 😊🏴‍☠️📏 @Seaside_elem @HRCE_Math @HRCE_NS

[Brittany Murphy @mss_murphy]

We are learning about perimeter in 5Murphy so we played around with @ToyTheaterGames making snowflakes to see who could make the the ❄️ with the biggest perimeter 😀 @Seaside_elem @HRCE_NS @HRCE_Math

We got our Wobble Stools today from the Cole Harbour Foundation 😍 We have some pretty happy kiddos this afternoon😀 @Seaside_elem @HRCE_NS

Our rain gauge couldn’t be tested on this sunny day, so we hid it so we could check on Tuesday 🙊

[Brittany Murphy @mss_murphy]

Today in 5Murphy we built weather instruments and then took them outside to test them and see if they worked!! We had some pretty excited students when they did 😊 @HRCE_NS @Seaside_elem #weather #Science
