Learned an interesting fact today. If all recyclable material is not in clear plastic bags the recycling company that collects for the district will throw the bags into the garbage! #useclearplastic
Primary Science Inquiry group meeting today at DRC. Love to see the DRC science kits being used to explore inquiry and promote curiosity and critical thinking. With @ncampbell38#rtla38#sd38learn
With @ncampbell38 and #sd38learn educators thinking about big ideas, concept based learning, and the curricular competencies that live in Gr. 4-7 chemistry! Thanks for hosting @cooksd38
Educators, parents and students are all welcome to attend this BC EdCamp focused on the Core Competencies being held here in Richmond on January 19 2019 at McRoberts Secondary. We look forward to the conversations! #sd38learn
Facilitating conversations with K-9 teachers today in Sooke for their Curriculum Implementation Day about the core and curricular competencies in mathematics. #sd62
It’s great to be partnering with you @AlByres. SD38 Gr. 4-7 teachers can register their classes for Science Jam up until Dec. 3. Details in the Science Jam group on the portal.
Honored to be a part of Science Jam 2019! Great to be able to work with dedicated educators who are prepping classes to show off their science skills.
Thanks for leading @ncampbell38!

How can we design experiments to explore chemical changes? Gr. 6/7 students in @mrshoub’s class change variables and measure results as they design fair tests with hand warmers. @bcscta#sd38learn
In an age of exponential growth in automation, what is most important about learning? According to futurist/humanist Gerd Leonhard it is that which makes us most human: passion, curiosity, critical and creative thinking, art, humanities, ethics... #zwc18
How can we be intentional about teaching curricular competencies in science? Gr. 6/7 Ss in @mrshoub’s class generate observations and testable questions as they explore the chemical changes in hand warmers. Next lesson: collaboratively design experiments. @bcscta#sd38learn
What opportunities do children have to explore, wonder, & build understandings of the natural world in your school-yard? Don’t know where to start? Gather some loose parts & let the children play, you’ll be amazed by what they teach you #OutdoorClassroomDay#optoutside#sd38learn
What are the indicators of chemical change? Gr. 6/7 Ss in @mrshoub’s class engage in guided inquiry as they look for the creation of new substances. @bcscta#sd38learn
