It was a little bit cold and wet today but lots of joy was found in outside exploration time. ”We are puddle artists!”

We shared a new fall favourite “Yellow Time” by Lauren Stringer. Went for a walk to collect yellow leaves and found some more yellow treasures. Leaves came inside for a collaborative collage that was played with throughout the day.

Our class chose the nature name Dandelion Class this year. A good reason to buy some new books 📚❤️ Here are some I found… Do you have any other recommendations?

After reading Chipmunk at Hollow Tree Lane, went outside to collect supplies to get ready for winter like a chipmunk. Later made nests & burrows using loose parts from nature & in the classroom. Students excited to show further explorations they made during outside play time.

On the first day of school, I always treasure the hour that I get to spend with my class from last year. I recently bought a new book to share. It helped spark a conversation about many of the good things we got to do together last year in Kindergarten.

I helped my wife put together this video of her students unpacking the meaning & importance of indigenous land acknowledgements in schools. I think it’s a process worth undertaking w/ children&adults alike. vimeo.com/maddaugh/reconcili… @surrey_schools @sd43bc #TruthAndReconciliation

No matter how many times I see and hold a book for the 1st time, it always feels magical. This one feels extra special because of how much joy & love I felt working with Robin Wall Kimmerer’s beautiful writing! @LernerBooks

I’ve been playing this game with my 2 1/2 yr old grandchild. First we had fun just building the path, now we use the die, next I’m thinking we can use the bag to choose a block by feel. So much fun to explore different ways to play with game materials. #MathPhoto22 #mathgames

Thank you @perfinker and @lkmaclean for this lovely gift! ‘Me And My Sit Spot’ is a perfect addition to my collection!

Artist James Brunt says he is 'obsessed' with balancing pebbles... just look at what he created on Flamborough beach. 🐚 @RFJamesUK.

A collective love of roly polies continues to grow. A creative thinker came up with a wonderful project idea anticipating Story Workshop time tomorrow. I’m looking forward to the stories to come…

Well … the roly polies inspired lots of stories today both inside and outside! - slide and waterfall adventures, hide and seek, camping and camp fires
