Ponteix Students Create Greek Mythology Characters

Mrs. Ross is teaching Greek Mythology in gr 7/8 ELA at Ponteix School. After reading their books, students created a character using very creative ingredients. They invited Principal Simpson to share in the excitement and engagement, and the students got to eat their creations!
Sidney Street Students Test Expedition Kits

Chinook Engagement Coach, Ms. Poisson, stopped in at Sidney Street School and asked some Gr 5 students to help demonstrate the expedition kits to Principal Stewart. The students loved it! They are always so interested and engaged in everything we do!
MCCS Students Engaged in Art and Biology

Students in Mrs. Eisserman's Art 20/30 created amazing ceiling tile art. The goal was to create a piece that reflected their personality and that others could look at and say "Yep, that's hers!"

Ms. Buick's Biology 30 class is on a dissection spree, with starfish, grasshoppers, and perhaps some other disgusting things later this week. Well, the students say it's disgusting... but they really love it!
Engaging Learning Environments at Eastend School

At Eastend School, Mr. Randy Johnson created an engaging student space in his classroom. He also added a "nook" that shows off his personality and dubious hockey choices.... The students are really "owning" their space!

Mrs. Dianne Johnson totally revamped her classroom with an amazing reading/ work space, lighting, and an updated instruction area with a projector. The students seem to like working on the couches even more than in their desks and she says discussion groups are more productive in their new, comfortable setting!
