📚 🚽 Literacy in the Loo – June Edition! This month, we’re rethinking “silent reading.” Did you know there are powerful alternatives? From partner reading to reader’s theatre, let’s mix it up and make reading time meaningful! #ocsbLiteracy #LiteracyInTheLoo @OCSBelementary

I see 👀. I think 🤔. I wonder 💭 The #ocsbkinder @ConventGlenOCSB created portraits using items found in nature. They made patterns, counted flowers, described what the choose & why, and demonstrated elements of design 🍃🌼 🌾🌸 #ocsbmath #ocsbLiteracy #ocsbArts #ocsbOutdoors

Learnt about vermicomposting 🪱 @ConventGlenOCSB during #ocsbEducationWeek. Here’s how it works … Worms eat organic waste, then digest the material, and their waste becomes vermicompost. The end result is a dark earthy compost excellent for soil. @ocsbSEP #ocsbkinder

Did you know 👀 🤔 Decodable texts align with the Ontario Curriculum by supporting foundational skills (phonemic awareness, phonics), building fluency & automaticity, and developing vocabulary through gradual word introduction. @OCSBelementary #onted #LiteracyInTheLoo

This month’s Literacy in the Loo is about Summarizing🚽📚! Summarizing isn’t just an EQAO skill-it’s a key to strong reading comprehension. Here are some educator prompts & possible student responses. Keep it clear, concise, and in your own words! #ocsbLiteracy #LiteracyInTheLoo

This is exactly what I pictured (practical, simple and effective) when creating #ocsbLiteracy “Literacy In The Loo!” @ms_schouten Thank you for always sharing your learning and being an advocate for best practices 👏🏾 🫶🏽 Improved fluency ✔️ @OCSBelementary

March is National Reading Month! Check out our calendar for daily literacy activities. Share & show your participation and learning with us #ocsbLiteracy 🗣️📚. Stay tuned for the book “Nature is an Artist” coming to a LC near you ❤️ @OCSBelementary @OttCatholicSB

It’s #KindnessWeek 🎈📚 Here are some books we have in our OCSB schools. Which ones will you read aloud with your class?! #ocsbLiteracy #KindnessMatters @OCSBelementary

📢 Educators! Take 5 minutes to watch this video on the purpose of the Oral Reading Fluency (ORF) measure in screeners. It explains why ORF isn’t decodable and how it connects to reading comprehension. 🎥 https://t.co/4E5yIWxHe4 Use screeners effectively! 🙌 @sstollar6

Thanks to the OVER 60 grade 3 classes that joined us for our first session about EQAO & reading 📖 🗣️. We looked at keywords, types of questions, test taking tips, and even did a practice listening comprehension piece with @lexiacore5 text and @quizizz. @OCSBelementary
