Practicing area and perimeter outside

Studies show that outdoor learning delivers many benefits — reducing stress, improving moods, boosting concentration, and increasing a child’s engagement at school. 

We took math outside this week and we mesure the school yard to find its perimeter and area :)

 

Grandparents day

Fortunate are the children who have active grandparents in their lives. Spending time with grandparents is enriching to youth in so many ways, physically, emotionally, mentally, and socially. 

A weekend at grandma and grandpa's house? Nonna’s home made pasta?  Yaya or papou’s sense of humour?  Abuelitos’ stories from long ago, I wish I could still learn from mine ❤️

Family plays such an important role in our lives and we should make time to cherish our love ones.

This week at PDC we celebrated these great role models and I am still feeling nostalgic:

Say cheese!

We had a blast!

A brand new school year!

Dear families,

​Welcome to the 2024-2025 school year. This is such an exciting time for your child: they are finally in grade 6!!

I am committed to making this year one of excitement, growth, and opportunity, both academically and socially. I will guide and encourage your child, celebrating each step of the way as he or she continues to gain a love of learning, self-confidence and the academic skills that form a foundation for continued success.

Here are a some pictures of what we have been up to during the first few weeks of school:
