@kn_jensen @HeatherMMcKay And mine, that just arrived last week, is sitting on my desk at work, and makes me very happy each day when I give it another read through. Thank you to that CBE book fairy who even tagged a couple of meaningful pages.

@HeatherMMcKay I agree 1000%, Heather. My Book Fairy magic arrived on a day I needed it more than that person will ever know, and the story the book shared was just what my heart needed at that moment. Hope you are well.

Dear #CBELiteracy Last week, through a convo with 2 inspiring folks, I was reminded of the CBE Book Fairy, who sends book love out across the CBE. I would like to float out the idea that if, over the next year, you come across a book you love, but never seem to read aloud

@CBEAJA @CBEStanleyJones Best ever!

AJA and @CBEStanleyJones have ENDLESS GRATITUDE for our facility operator, Mr. Nicol!! We are so “plaid” to have you at our school! Happy custodian appreciation day to all custodial staff out there caring for our safety and our spaces as the ❤️ of our schools. 🙏 🙌🏻

Ramadan Kareem ☪️🌙 Students lead a history lesson, vocabulary game, lantern craft, wall display, and example of generosity with hand made gift bags. Inclusion. Kind deeds. Community. Reflection. Leadership. We love to see it! #AJA @CBEStanleyJones

@dinnerwithjulie @lolennui Ugh. And Christopher Pike.

my theory is every gen X person read a stephen king book way too young and that’s why they are the way they are

As photographers we set to capture the tundra through our eyes. We know that words matter. Students used blackout poetry to highlight the words they were most connected to to share the story of the Arctic + the Inuit people. inspo @WillowParkCBE #cbeliteracy @CBEStanleyJones

Before + after: white shirts made pink using natural dye from🥑pits & skins. Well done grade 6s on using the scientific method to test how to make the most vibrant pink for Pink Shirt Day using natural dye! @CBEStanleyJones #AJA #PinkShirtDay2022 #upcycling #sustainability #steam

“@asecretmarathon you have inspired me to do sports + I have learned that Afghanistan is so beautiful! Meeting @Kate4Hope at our guest session was a big honour - I got to see what Afghanistan is like through the perspectives of young women + girls.” -s #AJAGuestSpeakerSeries

“I learned that there is so much more beauty in places than what we hear on the news.”-s “Thank you so much @Kate4Hope for teaching us. I am very inspired and I would love to run a marathon.”-s AJA 💜s @asecretmarathon 🙏 Kate for your courage and compassion. @CBEStanleyJones

"Change will not come if we wait for some other person or some other time. We are the ones we’ve been waiting for. We are the change that we seek." -Obama Students donated 309 gifts of love to @CalgaryFridge today + fresh lettuce harvested from our indoor garden. #WeAreCBE

Grateful for the learning + inspiration that took place today @Indigenous_cbe. Time spent looking through the front matter of the curriculum through a land based perspective + engaging in conversation through provocations connected to animating our more-than human world + SDP.

Who am I? Guided by the medicine wheel we are learning to holistically understand all the beautiful parts of us. Students chose one coloured bead for each of their illustrations to sew their Belonging Colour Story onto their heart. @CBEStanleyJones #CbeIndigenousEd #cbeliteracy

Students from K -9 engaged in critical literacy that had them connect words to broken + whole bricks. When shared that the bricks represented those of a residential school, justifications + thinking shifted. #TruthAndReconciliation #cbeliteracy @Indigenous_cbe
