Today is World Teacher's Day!
Please take some time to think of the teachers in your life. What impact did your teachers have on you? How have they helped shape your identity? How do they shape our future?
Thank you teachers!

@AVuongEducation My grade 4 teacher Ms. DeMosiac made me feel cared for in my new school & inspired my love for music; my Grade 7 teacher Mr. Doll helped me challenge my assumptions and become a more critical thinker! They among many others had a big part in shaping who I am! #WorldTeachersDay

[Mrs. Barr @mrsbarrcbe]

Especially important to remember for those of us teaching and learning through Hub! #CBEHub I hope you're getting some outdoor movement in this gorgeous fall weekend! 🍂

Sitting often results in shortened posterior muscles as well as forward head posture, neck strain, visual stress. Brief movement breaks can help to restore muscle length (calves, neck, shoulders+), and energy to eyes. #BrainGym #LengtheningActivities #BrainButtons #TheElephant

Orange Shirt Day is so much more than just a day to wear Orange. It signifies our responsibility towards truth, reconcilation, and a future where Every Child Matters. So proud of our students and staff for their courage and strength on our shared journey

Grade 5 students with #CBEHub shared about themselves this week by creating "pieces of me" jars- selecting 5 items to represent themselves and sharing with their small group on Google meet to get to know each other better. @CJMCBE

[Mrs. Barr @mrsbarrcbe]

First Day meeting with my grade 5 students for Hub! I was so happy to see their faces. ☺️

A few weeks ago, one of our Grade 6 students, Jeslie, asked if she could share a challenge with the class- she asked her peers to join her in creating some art to say thank you to front line workers. These are just a few of their submissions- feel free to reply with more! @CJMCBE

[Mrs. Barr @mrsbarrcbe]

Sugar comes from plants! Sugar cane or sugar beets!

[Mrs. Barr @mrsbarrcbe]

Today's question: where does sugar come from?

[Mrs. Barr @mrsbarrcbe]

Surfing! That's hard to do in Calgary, but there's lots of other outdoor activities we can do here! I hope you were able to get outside for earth day today!

[Mrs. Barr @mrsbarrcbe]

Oops, I missed yesterday! 🙈
Which sport consists of getting on a board to slide on the waves?

[Mrs. Barr @mrsbarrcbe]

Ah! Twitter completely slipped my mind the last few days- but the answer is... 2!

[Mrs. Barr @mrsbarrcbe]

Happy Monday! It's going to be a beautiful day, and I hope you all spend some time outdoors!
Your question is a bit of a scavenger hunt today- what number is opposite the 5 in a die?

[Mrs. Barr @mrsbarrcbe]

The sun sets in the west. See if you can tell which direction is west from your home tonight based on the sunset. 😊 Have a great weekend!

[Mrs. Barr @mrsbarrcbe]

Good Morning!
Here's your question today- which direction does the sun set?
