🥤Sound Walls & Starbucks (this could totally be a club!)
Excited to chat with a colleague tonight about using a sound wall in their FDK classroom. ♥️

🕷 This week our sound mapping task is getting a little creepy crawly!
🌕Students can use this as an independent centre during literacy groups and/or it can be used with an educator to explicitly teach/review & practice skills.

After starting Reading Above the Fray by @JuliaBLindsey I made a copy of the Decoding Inventory she outlined. 🫶🏼
I use it to gauge how students are doing with skills we have explicitly covered to help plan next steps!

Awesome first visit @SPSSabres! When you practise mindfulness (kindly paying attention to something on purpose right here & now) you are training your brain to FOCUS! You fire up the “focus” neurons. We breathed & shared peaceful places in Kdg, GAINS, Gr. 4, 5, 7 & 8 @gecdsbpro – at Kingsville, Ontario

My favorite way to have students share about themselves is "Alphabet Share". It's going to sound almost too simple but it really does the job. The main 2 reasons I love it are because it lets those who are ready, share big and those who aren't, share small & it's so easy (1/3)

It’s very important to pronounce student names correctly. Take the time to ask, acknowledge and learn.
