Had lots of fun photoshopping students into photos with PNGs of the things that scare them most in placement yesterday so I thought I’d make my own spooky pictures to share today. Happy Halloween everyone!

My son Kade had his 11th birthday party last night. None of his invited friends came. That hurt. I’m asking my Twitter friends to show him some love today. If you have a minute, please send him a birthday wish. Mitchell Marner John Tavares Toronto Maple Leafs #LeafsForever

This week my grade 2s are learning about time. Here’s all the awesome drawings of things they can do in 1 second, 1 minute, 30 minutes, and 1 hour! #math #time

My grade 2’s had so much fun making oobleck today in science as we continue to learn about solids and liquids! Oobleck is a non-Newtonian fluid, an unusual material that is both solid and liquid.

Today we had Scientist Cindy from Scientists in School visit our grade 2 class and teach us all about the properties of matter. So fitting as we continue to learn all about solids, liquids and gases! #SiSImpact

Here’s some more pic collages of the awesome science experiments we did with Scientist Cindy. So much fun! #SiSImpact

Practicing our story recall using Explain Everything on our iPads with our tech buddies! We are working on retelling the story of the Three Bill Goats Gruff and looking forward to the final products! Bellmoore School

Look how technology can inspire students to use their imaginations! #DabbingSloth

So happy with how my grade 2’s Aurora Borealis chalk pastel artwork turned out! We have some fantastic artists amongst us❤️
