Shout-out to all the Montclair Marvels recognized this week for their consistent hard work and performance #BeProud @MontclairPS

#PrimaryEcoClub Seeds have germinated; grown into seedlings; and while waiting to be transplanted to the Learning Garden @MontclairPS , Gr 3 is experimenting with leftover kitchen veg scraps or regrow them. Will we succeed?

One of those incredible school community days where Montclair P.S. students K-8 collaborated to get our community and Kindergarten gardens ready for spring! #mymontclairmomenttobe #hdsb

We met the Ecosystem engineers-the earthworms today. Gr 3s @MontclairPS had another interactive virtual field trip organized by AgScape with a Kitchener Worm Farm. Did you know that not all worms are suitable for composting? Ask your child what they learned today!

We invite all @Monclairps families to come in on Wednesday, May 8th, between 8:30-8:55 am to take a picture with your family in front of the ‘M’ art installations in the front foyer. Let's make this your #MontclairMomentToBe

Gr 2s and Gr 3s Primary Eco Club in action! We rolled up the sleeves to get our hands dirty in the @MontclairPS Learning Garden. We transplanted the seedlings from our classroom and carefully planted and watered them last week. Now, we will patiently watch them grow with us!

Students @MontclairPS enjoyed throwing water balloons at their favourite teachers, and other fun activities (including hide and seek:) after we fundraised for the Jump Rope for Heart. Thanks to all the parents for their generous donations for a good cause.

If Ss can't paraphrase a math text/word problem in their own words (without the numbers), they probably do not understand it. We must teach the reading for meaning of word problems first (like we teach reading for meaning for all other texts) LONG before Ss start solving them.

.Montclair P.S. surprised #HDSB Director of Education Curtis Ennis recently with a self portrait 🖼️in honour of Black History Month. ➡️See what they created and the reaction from Director Ennis😊

The Hajj refers to the pilgrimage one makes to the Ka`bah located in the Grand Mosque in Makkah, Saudi Arabia. The #HDSB wishes the families who are able to make the pilgrimage a safe journey. #HajjMubarak

What a perfect weather for a playday before the last day of school! @MontclairPS #summer
