Today is Martin Luther King Day and this inspired a conversation about diversity. MLK fought for equality and freedom. We learned that although we all look different on the outside, on the inside we are the same as we all have feelings and are children of God. @StCeciliaHCDSB

As we are celebrating quite a few birthdays this month, we decided to throw a birthday party in our dramatic centre! Students were also invited to create “yummy chocolate” cupcakes for the occasion as part of the celebrations through sensory play. 🥳🎂🥳🎂 @StCeciliaHCDSB

We are mathematicians! We created a class graph using our gloves and mittens to answer, “What did you wear on your hands today?” Later, students worked in pairs to add using a number line. @StCeciliaHCDSB

We are learning to compose and add numbers. Students have been exploring different adding strategies using loose parts and concrete materials. Today students worked in pairs and took turns rolling the dice to build number sentences that the SK mentors recorded.@StCeciliaHCDSB
