Getting ready for our tdsbCREATES @TDSB_Arts with our Resident Artist, Martin Gomes. Room 209 is preparing by exploring how words carry and create meaning.

After 3 separate votes and a tight race between Room 209's top two deisgn selections, D's pumpkin was selected to represent us in this year's Pumpkin Patch. D, the runner up, and a couple of classmates stayed in at lunch to make the Halloween vision come to life. Cute AND spooky!

Our 3s, 4s, and 5s did a wonderful job running their @CIVIX_Canada vote today. Not only did we have a great elector turnout, but we also have potential Registration Officers & Deputy Returning Officers for future elections! We can't wait to compare our results tomorrow!
Our school’s polling station is open… for students that is. 😁
Our junior students are learning how elections work through the @CIVIX_Canada Student Vote program!

Room 209 asked "What can one do?" to help people who are facing food insecurity. After reading, "One Can" by @EricRWalters, we realized that we can support members of our community in different ways, including by supporting our local food bank @nyhfb...one can at a time!
During Truth and Reconciliation Week, we spent time reading books and discussing our thoughts about the lived experiences many indigenous children endured during their time in residential schools. We have begun to explore Canada's 94 Calls to Action.

Early in September, Room 211 and 209 spent some time getting to know one another. Did they choose Mbappe or Messi? Can they do a split ... blow a bubble? Who knew 3 Prime Ministers?

International Dot Day was a success! After talking about the importance of creativity, courage, and self-confidence in expressing who we are, we each made our own dots (using analogous colours) to contribute to our school wide art installation! (It's by the office. Check it out!)

September has come and gone. Room 209 has spent their time getting to know one another in AND outside of the classroom. Here we are making puzzles without being able to talk, without being able to make a plan, and without knowing what puzzle we were making!

What do we want our learning environment to look, sound, and feel like? Today, we spent some time in small groups collaborating to figure it out.

@DCCED
Congratulations Double A! 😄
Thanks for including us on your trip to see The Wild Robot today, Ms. Fenwick! We laughed, we cried, and we saw all sorts of conflict happening in the story ... just like the book! And thank you to our parent volunteers for helping keep us safe and on time! :)
