Div 19 has been focusing on what different feelings look like. How does an angry face differ from a sad face? What clues can someone’s face give you to help determine how they’re feeling? Here, students showcase tired, happy & frustrated using natural material self portraits!

Planting our own tiny seeds! One of our wonders at the beginning of our plant inquiry was “what is inside a seed?”
As we were planting today, we discovered some seeds that had split open in the package. So fun exploring & coming up with even more wonders!! #sd36learn

Before we can support and celebrate the cultures of others, we need to recognize and evaluate our own culture! Term 1 was all about familiarizing ourself with our own culture & now we can recognize the importance and influence of the cultures of others! #LunarNewYear

Thursday afternoons are for outdoor learning! Today we looked for clues that autumn is on its way out. We made connections to the story Goodbye Autumn, Hello Winter & noticed that the sun was already starting to go down! ☀️ @ForsythRoad @kam_ladybug #sd36learns

Pumpkin math & pumpkin science! How many unifex cubes tall are our pumpkins? Will a pumpkin sink or float in a bucket of water? We now wonder - why does a pumpkin float if it’s heavy? #SD36learn

Still life pumpkin paintings! We sat in a circle on the carpet around 1 of our class pumpkins. We studied it before drawing, outlining in sharpie, and then painting using watercolours! When seen as capable, 4&5 year olds are capable of anything. #sd36learn

“How does a pumpkin grow from just 1 seed but then make so many more seeds on the inside?” One of our many wonders as we begin exploring pumpkins! #sd36learn

The principles of teaching & learning in Reggio Emilia are grounded in democracy, agency and seeing children as competent & capable. How are we nurturing young children’s understanding of what is happening in the world?

Go on a bug walk. How many different kinds of bugs can you find? You might have to lift up some rocks, dig through the dirt, and get down on the ground to find them! Have fun and don't be afraid to get dirty! These students found a spider, a wood bug and an ant!
