Yesterday class 8-3 shared kind words with ourselves and our peers. Thinking about how we can spread some cheer and make someone smile when they need it. #MentalHealthMatters
Continuing with our good habit building and bad habit breaking using @JamesClear’s Atomic Habits as our resource. Students used the four laws to practice.
Team-building games to fix our communication issues in grade 7/8 P.E. The class ended with a lot more smiles and laughter. #teambuilding#intermediate-students #communication
Started off the 2023 year with a discussion about healthy and unhealthy habits. Using Atomic Habits by @JamesClear as a resource and a read aloud for my grade 8 classes. Encouraging them to recognize when to implement the 4 laws of behaviour in their life.
Exciting day at @MordenHDSB and to top it off this was our 100th show since mid September. So blessed 🙌🏾💜 to work with incredible staff and students across Ontario #BlackExcellence@odmorden@HaltonDSB
Today we started our Literary Essays on character transformations. I have never heard my class so quiet. All of them had their prep work open and were focusing on sharing their literary voice #bookclub#Essay
@MordenHDSB is recognizing Bullying Awareness and Prevention Week by focusing on all of the kind acts that happen around our school. If a student is “caught,” they get a ticket to enter a raffle. #kindcatch#kindness#actsofkindness@HDSB_smhwb
Learning Conferences start tonight! Good luck to all of the students who will be sharing and thanks to all of the parents/guardians for their support. #studentledconference#makingthinkingvisible
The #HDSB recognizes Bullying Awareness & Prevention Week (Nov. 20-26). This week and throughout the school year, we are committed to providing a safe, caring and inclusive school environment that supports student well-being and success.
So incredibly proud of the @MordenHDSB Senior Boys Volleyball team for winning the East Division finals and then going on to win the Halton Region AA finals. They worked hard all season, always coming to practice with the right attitude. #HDSB#champions
Annotating text from their #bookclub novels with a focus on word choice and sentence structure. Students will be sharing summaries of their author’s writing style. #literacy
Students completed the #thinkingroutine Options Explosion, which had them looking at a decision that was made in their novel and imagining all of the options that could have happened instead. #bookclub
#resetandconnect class this morning focused on the power of concentration. We discussed how our concentration can often struggle when we have too many thoughts in our head. Our activity was a thought “clean out” so we could have a fresh start to our day.
Both the boys and girls volleyball teams won their games last night and are moving on to playoffs @MordenHDSB! Such a great energy in the gym with both teams cheering each other on 🥹🤍 @mspeddle
Book Club today had different book groups pairing up and engaging in discussions. It was awesome to hear them sharing their detailed examinations of the text. #bookclub#literacy
Omnikin ball is always a hit in physical education. It’s a great striking and fielding game to teach students to spread out and look for open space, while making quick decisions. @HDSBElemAthl
Today we started our #bookclub unit. Students excitedly opened their books for the first time and started to think about how they are going to read their chosen text through a critical lense keeping character development in mind. #ReadingCommunity
