Almost 2 months ago I found an ootheca (a praying mantis egg sac) outside, attached to a stick on the ground. We brought it inside with the hope of watching it hatch. We almost gave up hope but look what happened! @WestgateWolves @LindsaySkene @Miss_J_Piazza
“From tiny seeds grow mighty trees.” We love learning and exploring alongside our students everyday through #handsonlearning and #childledinvestigations @WestgateWolves @LindsaySkene @Miss_J_Piazza
Sometimes we put out materials and have a hard time predicting how students will use them. We have intention and hopes, but we let go of control and allow the children to be in charge. When we allow them to lead the play, the learning that emerges is so authentic.
Check out our art inspirations from this week! 🎨 🖼️ @WestgateWolves @LindsaySkene @Miss_J_Piazza
It’s the little magical moments in childhood that make the best memories. Cherish all of them ❤️ @WestgateWolves @LindsaySkene @Miss_J_Piazza
SO much excitement this morning when we discovered that our house centre had been spookified”! @WestgateWolves @Miss_J_Piazza
So much excitement and curiosity surrounding our Praying Mantis visitor today! @WestgateWolves @Miss_J_Piazza
When one of your students asks you to “dress up and go on a fancy date”… you dress up and go on a fancy date😊 ❤️ #ilovekindergarten

"We shouldn't look at the desire and capacity for a child to deal with a new level of stress solely in terms of educational achievements; for some kids, just getting on the bus is a huge accomplishment." ~ Stuart Shanker

We are investigating a real birds nest today and learning more about birds! Adding artificial eggs and toy birds to the centre has created opportunities for some fun imaginative play among friends. @WestgateWolves @LindsaySkene
It just makes sense to end this super rainy day with a puddle picture because, well…we love puddles! 🌧️ ☔️
