Two scientists dumped 12,000 tons of oranges🍊 in the Amazon Rainforest. 16 years later, the result is breathtaking – at Olympia, WA

Such an inviting spark to explore measurement - love the ties to nature, literacy and vocabulary building.
The children are enjoying measuring nature treasures and animal dolls of various sizes as we learn about non-standard measurement. The big bear has been the children’s most favourite item to measure.

A read aloud was our inspiration for our walk outdoors into the woodlot. Can you identify what we noticed and closely looked at today? #getoutdoors #walkingcurriculum #peelEML @perfinker @GarthwoodPark_K #sshginquirypeel

Imagine you are a student engaging with democracy for the first time. This is the message that greets you. What do you think? - My opinions aren’t valued - My leaders don’t care about me - My thoughts make people uncomfortable Shame on @fordnation #OntEd #OnPoli #StudentsSayNo – at Brantford, Ontario
Replying to @DavidPiccini
@DavidPiccini Many people were wandering by your office and taking pictures of this. #Shame considering you usually want to hear what students want to say!

We challenge you to think about the literacy experiences that children have in your school and whether they are building a reading life and a writing life, and whether you can look at the children and say: these children love to read. #FPLiteracy
