What an amazing week this was! Blown away by the creations that were unveiled today at the Cardboard Arcade for our PG community to enjoy. Thank you @mrmartinEDU for leading Caroline MacCrimmon and I through this wild ride!

Felt so fortunate that this was our classroom🌲Loved getting to spend some time learning from Rachel Tidd alongside so many like-minded educators. Thank you @ColleenFast1 Hogg’s Ones Mme Arsenault-Howick Rochelle Tkach 🌱 @DSBNOutdoorED I can’t wait to do it all again next week 💚

We loved sharing our comfort levels with learning outside as we continued to work on choosing our Sit Spots. Thanks Lauren MacLean - Teach Outdoors for sharing your Comfort Clothesline! We absolutely loved it… especially when the wind picked up! @DSBNOutdoorED Pine Grove P.S. 🌲 EcoSchools Canada

A few last minute observations of our gardens before tucking them in for Winter and exploring new tools to identify flowers in our school yard. @DSBNOutdoorED Paul Ferrara @mrmartinEDU Pine Grove P.S. 🌲

Can’t wait to see what collections we find tomorrow! 🍁Thanks Rachel Tidd for the great activities at the workshop and reminding us what we do inside can move outside.. and will likely bring new and different learning! Take Me Outside @DSBNOutdoorED Pine Grove P.S. 🌲

Thanks Lauren MacLean - Teach Outdoors for the lifesaver of suggesting sharing instructions for stations (thanks again Rachel Tidd) on these recordable buttons! Now I can do ahead of time in English… and Spanish! And apparently teach the puppy how to subtract pine cones 🙄 @DSBNOutdoorED

Pine Grove is taking part in the EcoSchools Canada School-to-School Connections action with Princess Margaret! We are loved meeting with their Eco Team at Heartland Forest this week. Thanks, Emma Christie #EcoSchoolsInAction @DSBNOutdoorED Pine Grove P.S. 🌲

Had the pleasure of working with an outstanding District School Board of Niagara Outdoor Learning Team!🪵🌲Last week, I was able to help host outdoor learning PD at the @DSBNOutdoorED Campus! Rachel Tidd was phenomenal to learn from. I’m so thankful for @ColleenFast1 Mme Arsenault-Howick MissQ Hogg’s Ones

Take Me Outside Week has begun! We loved joining the author of You Are The Land in a read aloud of her book & a peaceful nature reflection focusing on our place in the world. Take Me Outside @TakeMeOutsideDay2024 @DSBNOutdoorED Pine Grove P.S. 🌲

Day 2 of Take Me Outside Week 🐳 We loved having a Learn and Learn learning about whales today with Julie from Ocean Wise Education! Thank you, we loved all the quizzes, games and videos you shared. We have some whale experts in 2Q! Take Me Outside @TakeMeOutsideDay @DSBNOutdoorED

The sunshine today felt like Mother Nature was celebrating Take Me Outside Week, too! Loved walking the yard and seeing kindergarten to grade 8 out doing everything from quiet reflections to art to math 💚 @TakeMeOutsideDay

The Grade 2 Crew are ready to make positive Ripples of Change! In making our mandalas today, we discussed how what we do, positively and negatively, each day makes an impact on others around the world. Thank you GreenLearning and Take Me Outside for the great lesson #TMOweek

Can’t wait!

Excited to head to class with the District School Board of Niagara Outdoor Learning Team as we dive into School Gardening for Educators with @RoomToPlay! 🌱 Huge thanks to @TakeMeOutside for the reminder that spring will come... eventually! 🌿 #OutdoorLearning #SchoolGardening #TakeMeOutside @ColleenFast1

A HUGE thank you AgScape! Our students are SO thankful & excited for this opportunity! I wish you could have heard their cheers when you announced the winners! 🥰 They were so engaged in the workshop & then couldn’t believe an EVE Tower was coming to Pine Grove! Paul Ferrara

Last month, we ran a contest for a chance to win The EVE Tower Garden by JustVertical. Educators and students were asked to describe how they would use this sustainable indoor hydroponic farm for hands-on learning in their classrooms. We were thrilled to receive so many

We loved getting creative in this year’s GOOS Paper Bin Contest! Our flock of bins are ready to collect Good On One Side paper to help reduce waste at Pine Grove. 🤞🏻Fingers crossed EcoSchools Canada loves our entries as much as we do! #GOOSChallenge #StudentEcoLeaders

Insect Investigators in action this week! We loved seeing all the insects living alongside us. Loved hearing the explorers: “I think I found its thorax!” or “I wonder if insects have their own Sit Spot?”🐜Pine Grove P.S. 🌲 EcoSchools Canada District School Board of Niagara Take Me Outside Lauren MacLean - Teach Outdoors
