Mr. Poole’s Grade 5 friends used Google Drawings today to create portraits of notable FNMI Canadian figures. Impressed by their hard work and passion. Thanks to Stephanie for the inspiration! #SloaneLLC

So many things to highlight in the #SloaneLLC for March. Let’s start with this display for Greek Heritage Month. We’ve had so many requests for Greek language and cultural books this year that it was great highlighting some newer titles.

Kindergarten A and our Grade 3 buddies Ms.Khan visited Toronto Public Library’s Victoria Village branch to see Yolanda T. Marshall share her stories and passion for the written word. My favourite part was the dance party at the end of reading, “My Soca Birthday Party”.

Junior Librarians invited Ms. Chattergoon and Ms. Dew’s Grade One friends to our #SloaneLLC Lunch Library Club. Students explored word games, reading activities, and Blue-Bot coding. So proud of our Grade 5 leaders!

Our last build day in the #SloaneLLC with A Goldberg’s Kindergarten Engineers. How could they help Iggy’s class get off the island? Many created bridges from recyclable materials.

So lucky that I got to visit Ms.Cheema and the amazing students and staff at Holland Bloorview. So much inspiration and so much creativity in one small school and LLC. We made “cloud dough” and did sink and float experiments.

Junior Librarians organized and hosted Ms. Masood’s Gr 1s for a “Library Lunch Club” featuring different literacy activities like coding Blue-Bot to different words, reading with Junior Librarians, and word game fun. So proud of their leadership and creativity. #SloaneLLC

Kindergarten explored the Ontario Science Centre on Thursday with the rest of the SloanePS_TDSB Kindergarten classes A Goldberg Mrs. R. FDK Play. Favourites were KidSpark, Space, and Rainforest areas. Thanks to all our volunteers for making it a success!

Today in Kindergarten A, we explored pan scales. This one was a great real world math talk - why are the two bingo dabbers not equal in weight? Loved hearing students share their hypotheses.

Thanks to Elementary Teachers of Toronto for this new book for our classroom library! Can’t wait to share this Forest of Reading Blue Spruce nominee with students.

Thanks Ms.Khan for hosting Kindergarten A with our Grade 3 Buddies for some Valentine’s Day themed STEM centres.

Kindergarten A celebrated the 100th Day of School and Valentine’s Day with rotations with all 4 kindie teachers hosting fun centres in each class. It was lovely to see all our kindie friends today. We are 100 Days Smarter!

Sloane PS was honoured to welcome Naomi Martin Tribal Vision Dance and their “Visions of Turtle Island” performance today. Students were enraptured by hosts Naomi and Derek. Thank you for sharing your stories and passion.

Kindergarten A discussed all the things to do with the 100th day of school. Can’t wait to celebrate next week with crowns and fun kindie rotations with all three classes.

Building day for A Goldberg’s Kindergarten C has arrived. These engineering teams used their blueprints to start building bridges to save Iggy’s class. Can’t wait to see the final results. #SloaneLLC SloanePS_TDSB

Collaboration continues in the #SloaneLLC with Ms. Kobric’s Grade 3/4 and Mrs. R. FDK Play’s Kindergarten B learning buddies. Their bridges are truly coming along after exploring cardboard attachments and types of bridges.

Added some new titles today that students requested from our Book Fair. Thanks to all the families that purchased and earned us rewards to add these books to our #SloaneLLC . SloanePS_TDSB

After reading “48 Grasshopper Estates” by Sara de Waal, Mrs. R. FDK Play’s Kindergarten class created friends with their favourite characteristics like sharing toys, kindness, and helpfulness.

Scientist Laura from Scientists in School visited Kindergarten A to present, “Let’s Be Scientists.” We had quite a few guest visitors and volunteers including Mr. Gillis, Ms. Maria, and Ms. Bozek. Shoutout to our parent volunteers - Leslie, Deniqua, and Namrata. Thanks! SloanePS_TDSB

Whose tracks are those? Kindergarten created and explored different tracks and trails left by various living things. Scientists in School SloanePS_TDSB
