Celebrating my third year of working closely with @visionsofsci 👩🏻‍🔬 Their PD series empowers educators like myself with the tools, skills, and confidence to inspire the next generation of STEM leaders and scientists! #STEMEducation #TeacherGrowth @BalmoralDrivePs

My students had so much fun during the Drone Delivery challenge! The hands on activity was accessible for all of my kiddos and they creatively engaged in the design process while creating their own carrier devices. The egg drop was the highlight for my kiddos!

Students built 3D houses out of cardboard and demonstrated their understanding of circuits as part of the @Skills_Canada competition. These students chose to create spooky houses and I must say, they are super creative! Way to go @EarnscliffeSPS!

Thank you to the sweetest @E_Ale2020 and my wonderful classes of 6F2 and 6F4 for making my birthday so special. I am truly blessed to be working in a school where there is so much kindness and love. I couldn’t have asked for a better way to celebrate my birthday 🎂

Our amazing staff and students at @EarnscliffeSPS have been engaging in learning as part of the The Moccasin Identifier Project. Today we became one with the land and left a trail of moccasins around the school community. @kevseb @LisaWillTeach

6F2 & 6F4 have been engaged in inquiry based learning where they researched environmentalists from around the world, young & experienced. In collaboration with Eco Club, they created this beautiful bulletin board display to inspire others🦅 @kevseb @LisaWillTeach @EarnscliffeSPS

For Asian Heritage Month, students led various workshops including Chinese Lantern making, fan making, calligraphy, chopsticks, origami, henna and Bhangra dancing! The students exemplified outstanding leadership as they led the workshops with passion. Go Eagles! @EarnscliffeSPS

Thank you @Sci_in_School for a fun filled workshop about electricity ⚡️ Students were very engaged in all the experiments and loved the circuit challenges! #STEM @EarnscliffeSPS

Dodgeball Champs! These Eagles had a blast at the dodgeball tournament today. Their sportsmanship, athleticism and kindness was right on target 🎯 Way to go Eagles! @EarnscliffeSPS @kevseb @LisaWillTeach

Proud of our students for putting together performances showcasing Sikh dances, singing folk songs, distributing langar & leading workshops for Sikh Heritage Month! The workshops & assembly were a huge success🎉 The @EarnscliffeSPS community is beautiful❤️ @kevseb @LisaWillTeach

For Sikh Heritage Month 🪯, students participated in a Mehndi (Henna) Workshop. Students from all cultural backgrounds came together to create designs on one another. Such a fun workshop! @EarnscliffeSPS @kevseb @LisaWillTeach

For Sikh Heritage Month, we had 2 student led workshops this week. The “All About Sikhism” & Bhangra workshops were a huge success👏🏽 Our student leaders worked hard on organizing, developing & delivering the workshops. Way to go Eagles! @kevseb @LisaWillTeach @EarnscliffeSPS

First day back from March Break and we’re already diving into deep math learning! My students have been loving doing math on vertical non-permanent surfaces! There has been a shift from “What’s my mark?” to “What other strategy can I try?” 🙌🏽 @pgliljedahl @kevseb @LisaWillTeach

What a fun time moving and grooving with Lula Afrique! Our grade 6 French Immersion students enjoyed this innovative way of learning more about French culture while experiencing live drumming, music and dance 🎶🪘 @EarnscliffeSPS @kevseb @LisaWillTeach

. @EarnscliffeSPS’s S.H.I.N.E Black Owned Marketplace was a huge success 🎉 Huge shoutout to our young entrepreneurs who created such beautiful products 👏🏽 Excited to put on my new bracelets and lip gloss! @PeelSchools

Our fraction math centres were a hit! Students used various hands on & digital tools (e.g., number lines, pattern blocks, fraction towers, cuisenaire rods, etc) to work through task cards. The excitement to do fractions and work with manipulatives was contagious! @EarnscliffeSPS

So many fantastic sessions took place this weekend at the Virtual Math Summit! Truly a great way to learn new ways of thinking and teaching, while reflecting on my current teaching practice. Excited to put into action some of my key learning from this summit into my math classes!

What a great day for Snow Tubing! ❄️ The weather was great, the spirits were high, and excitement filled the air! Witnessing our amazing grade 6s include new peers into their tubing groups and hearing kind words was the highlight of my day! Way to go Eagles! @EarnscliffeSPS

Yes!! 🙌🏽 As someone who has experienced microaggressions in regards to the pronunciation of my name and my identity for years, ensuring I pronounce all of my students names correctly is always my priority. I want my students to feel belonged and have pride in their identity.

This week my students became teachers & taught the class about their passions such as the dwarf planets, sowing, Morse code, sign language, origami, art forms, our names in different languages & communicating in different languages. A remarkable experience! 👏🏽 @EarnscliffeSPS
