Fostering a culture of kindness in class 💜🙏🏽

Boo! 👻

👻🕸️ IT'S ! 🕸️👻

We may not be able to spend this Halloween decorating the classroom, but this week has been filled with spooky stories about trick or treating and carving pumpkins! 🎃

Speaking of pumpkins... whilst going through the Learning Links archives, I found this really cute activity I did with my students where they got to draw out how they would carve their pumpkins! Which one is your favourite - 1,2 or 3? 💫

If you ever needed an excuse to have a lazy day, is definitely the day! 🤩 Here are some cool facts about one of the planet's most adorable animals! 🐾

It’s couldn’t be more fitting that we celebrate on October 8th! ✨🐙 Octopuses are super cool beings with 8 tentacles, 3 hearts and a whole lot of brainpower (some species have multiple brains 😯)

We did an animal report on Octopuses in the classroom a while ago & I know the children were definitely intrigued by their findings! Do you know any other interesting facts about them? 🤩

Personally, I 💛 having my five a day! From sweet potato and carrots to cucumbers and cauliflower, there is something for everyone! Veggies are healthy, vibrant and super duper tasty, don't you think? 😍

Which vegetable do you LOVE? 💫

It's !! ❤️🧡💛💚💙💜

Without a heart beating inside each of our bodies, none of us would be here today so we have to appreciate all the work that little organ is doing to keep us functional! A heart also symbolises love, which now more than ever we need in order to get us through these crazy and confusing times!

Sometimes we just need to be reminded to appreciate our bodies - organs and all, for everything that it is providing to us! Give yourself a hug - you deserve it! 💫 We'd love to hear your favourite thing about your heart below!

We thought we'd pay a little tribute to our favourite Bunny Rabbit in - Bouncy Ben 🐇! How many words can you find that begin with the letter 'B'?

Today is Teacher's Day in India! 🍎This year has had a lot of strange moments and the beginning of the new school year has been no different. With government restrictions in place, shout out to all the educators out there who are adapting to the new e-learning process so that all these beautiful kiddos can continue learning and striving for excellence! Gold stars all around! 🌟 🌟

I think I can speak for all parents and teachers out there and say that it has been an adjustment for everyone, but we've done well so far! We have to do our part while the world continues healing 🌍💕 Stay home & stay safe so that we can get back in the classroom as soon as possible!

We're going coconuts for coconuts!! 😍 Here are some facts about this cool tropical seed! Which one is your favourite - 1, 2 or 3? 💫
