how many curriculum standards can we target in a #handson engagement? Ss made bread in the kitchen today- we consolidated our farm to table unit, measured ingredients using fractions, read & followed sequential instructions, all while working in collaborative groups! #ISKLproud

Team teaching allows us to be responsive to student ideas, document the process and probe for deeper thinking all at the same time. Here’s the incredible Chris Wright modelling unexpected body language as we explore the challenges of friendships. #isklproud The International School of Kuala Lumpur (ISKL)

outdoor learning is always better when shared with other educators. feeling so grateful to have Joel Jr Llaban and Suji DeHart making time and space in their days to inspire the love of reading in our young learners. #ISKLProud The International School of Kuala Lumpur (ISKL) #outdoorclassroom

how many curriculum standards can we target in a #handson engagement? Ss went on a shapes hunt w/ Steve Katz discussing shape attributes, finding details in a big picture, and capturing photographs using zoom & focus... all while enjoying the benefits of fresh air! #isklproud

Ss are constantly observing our friendships and interactions as a guide to construct their own behaviour and social lives. So when shared writing becomes shared laughter, learning & engagement enhances. Thank you Joel Jr Llaban for bringing joy to our room. #isklproud #coteach

There’s no better way to celebrate #EarthDay19 than with some yoga in the #outdoorclassroom with parent volunteers. We are so lucky to have endless support from our #isklproud community! #grade1ecowarriors #outdoorlearning The International School of Kuala Lumpur (ISKL)

We are continuing to celebrate #EarthWeek by putting our knowledge of recycling and reducing plastic use into action! The Ss turned old t-shirts into environmentally friendly reusebale tote bags in the #Makerspace. All we needed was scissors and rulers! #ISKLproud The International School of Kuala Lumpur (ISKL)

Today’s coteaching emphasized the importance of standing up for yourself& others. Chris Wright & I taught in parallel - one group explored words& tone, the other body language- then Ss paired up and taught eachother& role played. #teamteach #ISKLproud #lifeskills The International School of Kuala Lumpur (ISKL)

Exciting things to come in 1EG... @Teachmaxwright helped the Ss to create their own mini eco-garden in the classroom to observe life up close! Waiting patiently now to see what emerges from these eggs... #coteaching #outdoorlearning #ISKLproud The International School of Kuala Lumpur (ISKL)

#mindful moment of the day: elephant breathing. Stand with your legs apart with your arms hanging in front. As you breathe in, raise your hands high like an elephant trunk, and slowly swing your arms down as you breathe out. #selfcare #isklproud The International School of Kuala Lumpur (ISKL)

#mindful moment of the day: balloon breathing. As you breathe in, imagine you are filling your lungs like a balloon. Raise your hands over your head as the balloon fills. As you breathe out, deflate your balloon arms slowly back to rest. #selfcare #isklproud The International School of Kuala Lumpur (ISKL)

We spend a lot of time discussing, practising and learning to be kind to others and sometimes we need to remember to teach the importance of being kind to ourselves. #isklproud The International School of Kuala Lumpur (ISKL) #selfcare #SocialEmotionalLearning
