Our 7 immersion students are lucky to have local textile artist Andrea Tsang Jackson guiding an exploration of Structural materials, aesthetics, design and more! Thanks to #AGNS and the #ArtsSmarts program for connecting and funding us! #ArtAndScience

These two killed it with their biomimicry designs! The white and black mitten is based on a polar bear's multiple layers of blubber and skin. The pink one used cotton balls to create pockets of air, like sheep's wool. Love this unit! #7Sciences #EngineeringInSchools

Did you know it takes 3000L of water to make a single t-shirt? We received a donation of a whole bunch of 👕. An excellent opportunity for me to put my money where my mouth is! Our 7 Textile Arts students came up with some great ideas to upcycle these tees! ♻️ #7TextileArts

... Does not replace research. Sometimes AI returns information that is just plain wrong! Not to mention the perpetuation of stereotypes. Ask AI to create a photo of 6 successful people and you'll understand. We need to work on our AI literacy skills!

The use of AI is a hot topic these days. I was pleased to see that my grade 7s came up with some good ideas of what constitutes acceptable use. Not all the ideas from our brainstorming session made the cut! It's important our students understand that generative AI... 1/2

Mrs Earley has her social studies hat on today! 🤣 @GorsebrookJHS

C'est de la thermorégulation! Nous explorons la résultat du travail de l'hypothalamus 🧠 sur notre température corporelle. #8Sciences #Thermorégulation #PascoProbes

I don't think I'll ever tire of gummy worms meiosis. Because they've got the "chromosomes" in front of them, it's easy to see if they've understood. Also very easy to back it up a few steps to make a correction. #ExperientialLearning #9Sciences #Meiosis

A beautiful, blustery day for our students to participate in the No Stone Left Alone Remembrance Day ceremony at Fort Massey cemetery. As always, they make the staff at @GorsebrookJHS so proud. #NoStoneLeftAlone #LestWeForget 🏵️

Even though my D&D 🐉 skills are rudimentary, and my Magic 🃏 knowledge is non-existent, these folks have it under control! Seeing them having so much fun, while feeling safe enough to be their authentic selves, fills my bucket every time. #DnDClub #SafeSpace

Happy #Diwali! This festival celebrates the triumph of light over darkness. Diwali is observed by Hindus, Sikhs, Jains and Buddhists alike, each adding their own unique traditions to the festivities. https://t.co/jx0zleEwIl

It was a hit with my 7s! We've been talking about emulsifying agents, this made the connection to catalysts. Did you know that if you add dish soap, it gets really really bright, then fades away? Hmmm... 🧪

My trusty sidekick and I played around with phenyl oxalate ester, fluorescent dyes, and hydrogen peroxide (a.k.a. glow stick juice) for a little pre-Halloween fun. Mixing the colours was the best part! Don't forget - always wear your safety gear!!! 🥽🥼🧤 #ScienceIsFun #NoFilter

Que mes élèves sont créatifs! J'adore cette représentation des cellules musculaires. #8Sciences @GorsebrookJHS

Taking a mindful moment to observe various ecosystems in our school yard. Slowing down and using their senses to identify abiotic and biotic factors is made easier with our cell phone policy. They are present in the moment! #MindfulScience #7Sciences #NoPhoneZone @GorsebrookJHS

What an invigorating day! There's so much potential for generative AI use in the classroom. Instead of fearing it, let's harness it! 💻👩‍💻💡

The stage is set for @GorsebrookJHS Production of Disney’s High School Musical! Monday Feb 12 and Tuesday Feb 13th. Doors open at 6:30 pm. Go Wildcats! #ThanksToYouHalifax @hfx_arts HRA is proud to support school productions! This is our second one of twenty this year!

Wishing you a joyful Lunar New Year!

It was a lovely morning of interactive music and dance, celebrating African Heritage Month with our students. @GorsebrookJHS
