Huge thank you to @TogetherClass and @PlayDoh for accepting us into their Moulding Futures program! Our kindergarten students have loved testing out our new playdoh tools and trying out the activities in the teacher guide! We are so thankful for this opportunity! #explore #create
Thank you @Wipebook for supporting our PA Day! We used your Wipebook Flipcharts to delve further into High Impact Instructional Strategies! All of our educators loved this product and cannot wait to use them with their students! #collaboration @CharlesBowmanPS @kprschools
All our amazing Wipebook Flipcharts in action! We had some very happy educators who won their own @Wipebook Flipcharts for their classrooms! Thank you again for this opportunity! ❤️
Our second Blue Spruce meeting where we read @Sbradleybooks’s Cocoa Magic! I loved being able to share that I met Sandra last week at @ONLibraryAssoc’s Super Conference! Our students were so excited and loved this book! @ForestofReading @CharlesBowmanPS #LibrariesForLife
That’s a wrap! After 3 fantastic days of learning and connecting, I am heading home with a suitcase full of signed books and inspiration to continue making positive changes! #olasc @ONLibraryAssoc
Huge thank you to the @greatlakesprgm for joining all of our grade 1-3 classes! We loved learning about the lake sturgeon and cannot wait to do our part to help protect them! @CharlesBowmanPS #STEMeducation #WeAreKPR #onted #edutwitter
Such a fun Halloween! My grade 3s turned their @microbit_edu into pumpkins and we programmed a two player game, while my grade 1s were introduced to @PearDeck! 🎃 #edtech #WeAreKPR #onted #SchoolLibraryJoy #edutwitter @CharlesBowmanPS
We cannot wait to have these wonderful stories join our library’s collection! @CharlesBowmanPS #ShareYourLLC #librarians #reading

1st day of school team building challenge! My 3rd year teaching this group of students. I love that we can jump right into fun activities in our library! Groups of 4 worked together stacking the cups without touching them with their hands! @CharlesBowmanPS #WeAreKPR #ShareYourLLC
The last of our grade 2 classes finished their BeeCity maps today! They had to design advertisements with a specific theme for their map piece. Once done, we put our map pieces together and they coded the BeeBots to drive through. #SchoolLibraryJoy #WeAreKPR #medialiteracy
Five weeks later, the grade 3 classes finished their Dash accessory project! They needed to design an accessory for Dash to model down the runway and create a poster advertising that accessory! So much fun rolling down the runway today! #SchoolLibraryJoy #WeAreKPR #medialiteracy
Thank you @ISTEofficial for the Ask A Librarian panel! I loved hearing all of their different perspectives and getting ideas for my own library! We do more than read! 📚 #ISTELive23 #SchoolLibraryJoy
Thank you @ISTEofficial for offering virtual options, especially since school doesn’t finish until Thursday! I have learned so much from the first 4 sessions. Now off to my co-worker’s wedding, but I’ll be back for another day of learning tomorrow! #ISTELive23
Thank you @camilleco for sharing your research on bridging the digital divide! I cannot wait to apply this knowledge and continue the learning! #ISTELive23 #edtech @ISTEofficial
First time using our new @Makedo kits in grade 3! We discussed how to use each tool, then gave them creative freedom. They built castles, masks, houses, beds, and more! Cannot wait to explore even more next year! #STEMeducation #WeAreKPR #edutwitter @CharlesBowmanPS #creativity
Hopefully this leads to some positive changes to the Teacher-Librarian role! Especially with some schools no longer having a Teacher-Librarian! 🤞🏼
The new Ontario Language Curriculum (2023) has been released. We are pleased that the Role of the School Library has been included. Full text through this link: dcp.edu.gov.on.ca/en/key-cha… @ONLibraryAssoc

Printed the @Astro_Pi #MissionZero certificates today for our Girls Tech Club! I cannot wait to give them out at our next meeting! They have been asking for over a month now when their code is shown on the @Space_Station! #WeAreKPR #SchoolLibraryJoy #girlswhocode @CharlesBowmanPS
Thank you to the c_wonder Mobile Design Lab from @ontariotech_u for joining our classes the past two days. Our grade 1s learned about heat retention as they designed how to keep their animal (aka micro:bit) warm. So much fun! @CharlesBowmanPS #WeAreKPR #STEMeducation #edtech
I had so much fun turning our #BeeBot into a fire truck to help put out the fires with coding! This #kindergarten class’s inquiry focused on fire 🔥 Lots of collaboration, problem-solving, and giggles! #edtech #SchoolLibraryJoy #WeAreKPR @CharlesBowmanPS #ShareYourLLC
