After reading a @peterhreynolds book that focused on using the 5 senses to describe a setting, we looked at what we want our classroom to look and sound like. Loved using this as a basis for our essential agreements this year. #ibpyp @ibpyp @GEMS_ME

We read The Word Collector and asked our Grade 4 students what word they’d like people to use to describe them this year. Kind, athletic, creative, thinker and sophisticated were a few. We look forward to seeing our students model these words this year. #ibpyp @GEMS_ME

I am looking for a bank of guest speakers who I could contact. We can't use Skype unfortunately so I can't see their list. Even better, does anyone have a contact for someone in exploration? #pyp #edtechchat

Students looked at how we use multiple learning styles to learn a new skill (playing an instrument) & explored the growth mindset statements they used to overcome obstacles #pyp #GrowthMindset @ibpyp @XCLWA

If you want to learn about establishing relationships, setting up beginning of the year procedures, creating an inquiry based classroom environment and more in the Early Years (Kindergarten) then you want to learn from Lynn White! Free registration. us06web.zoom.us/webinar/regi…

Students listened to sounds from natural disasters in our auditorium in darkness, found photos of each disaster to figure out definitions and completed a @breakoutEDU before doing a Think, Puzzle, Explore #visualthinking strategy #EYPYgems

After learning about goods, marketplaces, competition, profits & losses, young G4 entrepreneurs hosted a Market Day. They came up with their products, pricing strategies, booth designs, signages and advertising campaigns to understand how simple economics & works. #IBYP

Students were allocated beans as currency and had to decide on how they would spend it. Great discussions about priorities, saving & family values arose. #ibpyp #hwoo @ibpyp #primary #grade4

Grade 4’s did our first Drop and Run Science Fair. Students dropped off their displays, knocked on the Grade 1 door and ran away quickly :) We’ve left QR code’s to view our live experiments which links to G1 procedural writing. Thanks G1!

Long distance #MysterySkype. We are using clues to generate evidence and guess the location of a class in Canada. Looking forward to keep our connection going this year! @padlet is a good way to share the clues and keep track of our thinking.

A QR code display of our favourite work from our unit, which opens up in @Seesaw. Students love being able to share their work with students in other classes. #edtech #edtechchat

Here is the @GoogleForEdu Slide template that we used. Each student chose 4 or 5 of their favourite pieces from our unit and added the QR code (from @seesaw) as an image. docs.google.com/presentation…
