“Mrs. Alexander, look! I read this word by myself. It is there.” Seeing students get excited about their progress makes my heart so happy! Keep up the hard work S! @StGiannaOCSB @OttCatholicSB #ocsbliteracy @UFLiteracy #pride

What a great #ocsboutdoors day! We snowshoed across our vast school yard, built snowballs and sculptures and took our class photo for February in front of our class tree. At @StGiannaOCSB, we love these clear winter days! @OttCatholicSB #ocsb @takemeoutside @ocsbEco

A fun night of ‘how to’ learning with our Embers. We learned to unlock a lock, change batteries, sew a button, fold laundry and put up a tent. @girlguidesofcan

Breakfast at my desk with my favourite #SimonTurcotte pear and grapefruit jam and a lovely good morning message from my former teaching partner Elena.

We are building simple machines and using our bodies as simple machines to make snow sculptures. Outdoor learning was a blast with Mrs. Chiarelli today as students displayed creativity, ingenuity and pure joy! @StGiannaOCSB @OttCatholicSB #ocsboutdoors @takemeoutside

Elbow-to-elbow, knee-to-knee, we are reading with a buddy. Students were looking for the consonant digraph PH in their decodable books @StGiannaOCSB @OttCatholicSB #ocsbliteracy

Life long learning in my classroom. Thanks Omar for taking the time to show me where the (AWFUL) buzzing sound was coming from and explaining the solution. It was fun chatting with someone so passionate about their career. @StGiannaOCSB @OttCatholicSB #trades #ocsb

We celebrated Groundhog Day and are using a Venn Diagram to show what we know about beavers and groundhogs. @StGiannaOCSB @OttCatholicSB @ocsbEco

We are learning about ramps and other simple machines. Our grade 2s had a great time experimenting with height and slope to make their ball travel as far as possible. @StGiannaOCSB @OttCatholicSB @ocsbEco

So thankful for the leadership and guidance from my colleague @ms_schouten. Our class has committed to working extra hard on our @UFLiteracy lessons so we can be “super readers” by spring. @StGiannaOCSB @OttCatholicSB #ocsbliteracy

I love cross curricular tasks. Students designed their own animals in science. We used AI to create the images. We used tally marks to count how many of each species we had. Now we are learning to take that information to make a bar graph. @StGiannaOCSB #ocsbmath @OttCatholicSB

We ended our Growth and Changes in Animals unit with a visit from my pet turtle Striker. Students discovered that not all turtles move slowly. 🐢 @StGiannaOCSB @OttCatholicSB @ocsbEco

We are loving our Friday Math Centres. It’s a great opportunity for students to review concepts we learned this week with their peers. My classroom at @StGiannaOCSB has a retractable wall so Mrs Chiarelli and I can make one large learning space for our students. @OttCatholicSB

@mmevanneste @StVeronicaOCSB Such a beautiful activity. I remember how much fun our Pines and Maples had creating their own stories. #ocsbkinder

Today we learned that Mary helped Jesus help decide to perform a miracle and turn water to wine. Students loved making this craft as part of our lesson. @StGiannaOCSB #ocsb @OttCatholicSB
