@PAlgonquin @tvdsbslp 💜💜When kiddos use the sound wall during our quick write time! This little one used it to write: snow, bodies, people all by himself!! So much growth in #grade1 !
My new fav hack: using #stickynotes to change our math problem daily! Using @MarianSmall ‘s adding and subtracting situations. Gives the kiddos lots of practice, easy to differentiate and can practice reading our 💜words and ⚡️words. @tvdsbmathk8 @PAlgonquin @mrskmcleod
When our 🦕 🦖 brought us cut outs of their feet, the #gradeones had no idea how much math we could do!! Many days of measuring and estimating, using words like ‘half’ and ‘quarter’! Today we flew airplanes & estimated distance using 🦖 feet! @mrskmcleod @PAlgonquin @TVDSBmath

Using our #numberline to #estimate where 25 will be! This flexible, constantly changing number line is helping the #grade1s develop their understanding of magnitude and patterning! @TVDSBmath @mrskmcleod @PAlgonquin
@PAlgonquin @TVDSBmath #gradeones started exploring measurement today with some exciting dinosaur feet! Some great counting strategies and early estimation!
Love these awesome #gradeones! Our shared writing today was amazing as we discussed punctuation, vowel sounds and letter formats! @TVDSB @TVDSBLiteracy @PAlgonquin
@PAlgonquin @TVDSBLiteracy Vowel Battle today in Grade 1! Looks messy but the kiddos loved it as we emphasized the differences between a soft ‘a’ as our chin drops; and a soft ‘i’ as our lips are pulled back.
@PAlgonquin @TVDSBmath Silly Sock Day led to a day full of counting by 2s!! Grade 1s looked for patterns, played games and used number paths. Thank you @mrskmcleod for bringing the kiddos outside to do some fun counting games!
@TVDSBmath @PAlgonquin Community circle today: How do you think about 10? Some amazing #mathchats and building upon each other’s ideas. Hard to believe this is only day 37!
