Cold toes couldn’t stop our scientists! 🥶🔬 We explored inclined planes & levers, measured how many Newtons of force it took to pull cars up ramps, tested gravity by dropping different masses, and investigated friction by pulling a peer in shoes vs. “cookie sheet skis”!

So much physics happening in our blended gr. 2/3 class. We started our explorations with levers and inclined planes outside in the woods for our Woodsy Wednesday but came back to warm up. Loads of science this week. (& a birthday too! 🎂 🎈) #ocsbScience #BeCommunity

This fallen log has been a car, a couch, an airplane—and today, a helicopter kids parachuted out of. Simple loose parts = endless imaginative play, where children meld ideas, collaborate, and problem-solve… all while getting fresh air & exercise. #OutdoorLearning

Nearby Nature=the BEST classroom 🌧️ We played in the rain 🪵 Built structures with loose parts 🪲 🍄‍🟫 Discovered decomposers 🪺 Noticed habitats 💭 Imagined, innovated, & collaborated ⚠️ Risky Play When we give kids space to explore, learning happens naturally @takemeoutside

Just back from an incredible 4 days at the @takemeoutside Leadership Conference in stunning Banff, AB! Inspired by the conversations, connections, and outdoor learning experiences that remind us how powerful it is to take education beyond classroom walls. #OutdoorLearning

When number sense meets pop culture. “Six! Seven!” echoes across our classroom daily…might as well take advantage. Math Memes = Engagement 😂 #ocsbMath #LearningIsFun

Worked on patterning & skip counting today while we explored some of our classroom math tools. Some even shared their 2D shape knowledge & we all reinforced that EVERYONE can do math! #ocsbMath
