Mrs. Creech’s students are exploring diverse regions in Canada, and starting with BC, they learned about Emily Carr, a famous BC artist.She was an eccentric person who loved nature and animals, and even had a monkey named Woo.She would sketch in the forest and then take her sketches to her studio and paint.So, they are doing the same!#shortreedlearns #youbelongatshortreed

New Year flip books in Ms. Toby’s class. Reflecting, goal setting, and looking forward! #youbelongatshortreed

Ms. Toby’s class is up to 12 minutes of DEAR (Drop Everything And Read). Goal setting and lots of perseverance to achieve their goals each day. Can you spot the student with the best reading spot? #literacy #dropeverythingandread #youbelongatshortreed

Some practice with number of the day... and some ball handling skills with Mrs. North’s class. #numeracy #movetolearn #youbelongatshortreed

Ms. Toby’s students have been working really hard at filling buckets every week, but especially this past week! Some have been drawing their own buckets during soft start & brainstorming ways to be kind (& fill buckets) each day! #kindness #community #youbelongatshortreed

Instead of meeting as a large group, Shortreed staff members are meeting via Teams and in smaller breakout rooms to discuss self-regulation tools and strategies as well as ways we can work within this year’s protocols to support our students and each other. #youbelongatshortreed

Love these! Mrs Datema’s students sharing if I had a pet dinosaur.... #literacy #scienceisawesome #youbelongatshortreed

Check out the art from Ms Fenech’s class! They did a guided perspective drawing and then used oil pastels to colour their drawings. Trying to brighten up a dull and rainy week. #youbelongatshortreed

Division one had a great time creating some animals with the Hey Clay supplies that were sent to us by @ottercoop yesterday! #creativity #youbelongatshortreed

Ms. McCabe’s students have been learning about matter so they built some marshmallow molecules! #sciencematters #youbelongatshortreed

Students in Miss Petersen’s class are starting to label items in their journals... the world of writing is opening up! #literacy #youbelongatshortreed
