December 6-10th 

This week we enjoyed creating a fused glass birch tree designs in our Clay for Kids residency.  Students were encouraged to think about what season their trees would be in a picked the colors for the leaves and the ground accordingly.  All students enjoyed the process and it will be exciting to see how our final designs turn out when we get them back in January.

I Can Ask For Help When I Need It / I Can Use Feedback to Make My Work Better / I Can Show Interest in Learning New Things

March 11th - 16th  The weeks are just flying by in March! We had such a great week together learning, exploring and making connections.  Here is a little snapshot of our week -  Community Walk - we were so very fortunate to have such a beautiful morning yesterday to head out on the land and experience the changes around us. We were very lucky to observe some ducks and geese along the river bank which sparked dialogue into what they were doing, eating and how they maneuver on the ice and water. We also spent time observing natural and manmade shapes in our environment and spent some time critically thinking about some of the purposes for buildings/structures that we viewed as well as analyzing the tree project that is underway on part of the river bank. It was an amazing opportunity to spend time together with our other grade two class learning from the land. Students expressed gratitude for: "time to see nature, to be able to see the ducks close up swimming, being out in ...

  September 7-10 We have had another wonderful week of connecting and building our community of learners! We have immersed ourselves into learning new things about ourselves, our peers, our land and our community.  Here is a snapshot of one of our learning tasks this week: I can identify each of the senses, and explain how we use our senses in interpreting the world.  I can i dentify and describe examples of plant and animal changes that occur on a seasonal basis.

February 26 - March 1st We had an amazing week!  Flames Visit - We were fortunate to have been chosen by the Flames@school program for a exclusive question and answer visit. The two players that came to visit us were Dryden Hunt and AJ Greer along with Olivia their Flames TV host, and other staff. As a group we were able to learn more about the life of a professional athlete, get advice from them about goal setting and nutrition as well as learn insight about the team. This experience was a one of a kind and we were very grateful for the opportunity.  Assembly - the grade one and two sharing celebration was an wonderful way to bring our school community together to showcase what we have been learning around the themes of belonging. Thank you to all who were able to attend.  Our sharing focused on the Seven Sacred Teachings as we have been examining traditional stories. These laws are the foundation for the Indigenous and Inuit way of life. These laws teach us about connec...
