100 Languages of Snow

 Despite the pouring rain today, we are talking about snow.

Over the weekend, some families conducted a mini-inquiry at home. On Monday and Tuesday, children brought in their representations of snow and snowflakes to share.

This is a great example of the principle of "100 Languages of Children" - no too representations are the same, yet they all celebrate learning about the same topic.

Every child brings his or her own past experiences and personal strengths to their explorations and their representations.

Communicating ideas is an integral part of a child's education and personal development.

Our learning is continuing in the classroom, with many students creating new representations of snowflakes.

 Be it stories, photos, paper, paint, fimo, markers, coffee filters, stamps, pipecleaners or pompoms, our children can communicate clearly with others. We just need to listen for each of their unique 100 Languages.
