Messages from tiny hearts in circle today. “Don’t be afraid of your shadow; it’s really just a constant reminder that there is light all around you.” - Rachel Welchin #SolarEclipse2024

Sounds scapes connected to emotions. Students spent time in nature listening to the intersections of sounds all around us. These sounds + sense of place created emotions that we brought to life with contour lines. #getoutside #cbeliteracy

This week in the circle room… Evidence of what is seen, felt + experienced. 🤍 #cbeliteracy #teachingwithjoy

Âmî Osâwâpikones (Dear Dandelion), We know that nature comes as a teacher, storyteller + healer. Thank you for the joy, connection, wonderment, creativity, inspiration + gift of slowing down today. With love, grade 3/4

The joy of learning!

Learning is relational Learning involves patience + time Learning requires exploration Learning should spark joy

Empowerment Agency Wonderment Connection What do plants do when people aren’t watching them?” Ms. Andie Gingrich

The theme is yellow! The feeling is L O V E … in these moments of wild, where do you find the joy?

Making room for student voice. Each classroom will be leaving an artifact to showcase their Call to Action. How do we select artifacts that aren’t ending the conversation + learning, but rather a place to start the learning journey again? #cbeliteracy @Indigenous_cbe

We are party ready! Kindie friends revised our book Âmî Osâwâpikones (Dear Dandelion) + found creativity + imagination from our natural world. “I knew you were okay to take these because you listened to your heart.” “Look, I’m wearing natures makeup! #cbeliteracy #getoutside

What did you do in school today? Students have been making stuffies using naturally dyed fabrics with a purpose. The donut represents the circle + the sprinkles for diversity within the ⭕️ Others thoughts were for connections to nature, to bring more joy, emotional supports.

The power of a metaphor! Provocation: What can you create to show your appreciation of the community + coming together in circle? #cbeliteracy #getoutside

Provocation + year long reflection: What can you share about the value of the circle? Student voice: “Just like dandelion fluff, it’s a place to belong + connect to before you go into the world and start your own journey.” 🥹 #cbeliteracy #getoutside @Indigenous_cbe

Gallery walking our new space of learning. Ending stories of learning to begin again next year.

What I have come to realize is the importance of HEART in this work. Grateful for the past 16 years of little hearts that have added to my story. I will take all those into my next chapter. 🤍
