Our learning of natural resources continues! Today we learned about Indigenous uses of cedar, how to harvest it and then practiced weaving with cat tails! #sd33learns
Finding plants in the back field! Using the ethnobotany kit to identify plants and learn about their uses. #sd33learns
Earlier this week we learned about various fishing and animals resources of Sto:lo People. Engaging and hands on for students to understand First Peoples natural resource methods. #sd33learns
Started w/ a bar graph survey of stories then students worked in groups to read a story, retell it, & identify the big idea. Roles were reader, recorder & sharer. We came together & heard the findings from each group! They had fun & practiced literacy skills! #sd33learns
Ss solved a problem of how many bikes, scooter and car wheels could make up 33 wheels. Was incredibly impressed by the thinking and representing this group did! Using shapes that have the same amount of sides as wheels. Legend and visual patterning. #sd33learns
Another engaging morning of math! We were lucky enough to have @CLodders10 lead us through a thinking classrooms lesson! So impressed to see my students hard at work in teams! #sd33learns
Great morning exploring math games that help support FSA content areas! #sd33learns @CurriculumSd33
Practicing bar graphs via vertical learning. We did a whole class survey then students worked in teams to represent the info on a bar graph. Lots of great conversations and team work! #sd33learns
Introduced vertical learning today! Students worked in groups to refresh their memories of place value via the snap format. Great snapshot for teamwork, leaders and flexible thinking! #sd33learns #thinkingclassroom
Split the kiddos into random groups and they had to find things in common then build a tower! Wonderful community building! #sd33learns

Educators from across BC joined me today to think about planning and designing for elementary mathematics and numeracy learning for this school year. Along with suggested year and week plans and ideas for instructional routines and projects, I shared some ideas to consider. 1/4

Working on equivalent fractions and comparing/ordering! We ❤️ math! Thanks for the helpful video @CLodders10 #sd33learns
A few chapters in and my mind is 🤯. A key take away so far: conversations about our processes for applying strategies and solving equations is so important! #sd33learns
