Playing some Big Ball (touchdown handball with yoga ball) in Wellness 10 for Halloween fun. Silliness of the game really engages some reluctant movers! #mpscpssd #myacsclassroom

Not from today, but it's never too late to celebrate learning in the classroom. Chemical reactions and scientific inquiry.

Grade 6s love the challenge of cooperative juggling. #mpscpssd #myacsclassroom

Scooter Scoop Ball in the mini gym. Sometimes the silly games bring the most intensity and engagement, especially from those who don't selfidentify as athletes. #mpscpssd #myacsclassroom

Thing Explainer by Randall Munroe explains complicated things (Body systems, combustion engines, dishwashers, etc) in the 1000 most commonly used words. Lack of vocabulary really tests students scientific literacy and stretches their explanation skills. #mpscpssd #myacsclassroom

6s guiding each other on proper technique and safety tips for the exercises they planned, as well as suggested sets and reps as they work on health related fitness outcomes. #myacsclassroom #mpscpssd

Random highlights of an awesome teaching day: Deep talk and research about current protests and conflicting perspectives regarding the environment with Great 10 Science. Students making progress with extra help at lunch. Gr 12 Bio having fun making comparison between cells and...

Comparing cells to other systems (grocery stores, farms, schools, etc). Also, students working hard after school to meet deadlines. Gotta celebrate the victories. #mpscpssd #myacsclassroom

As of Mon, Aug 31 I will be under instruction to keep gatherings to less than 30, wear a mask in public, and practice social distancing. As of Tue Sept 1, I am told by Government of Saskatchewan to teach 100+ different students a day, give up on social distancing, and they recommend avoiding masks.

We've moved to fewer classes each day, so we've got some 2 hour classes. Trying to think of body break options. Any thoughts? 30 students/class, limited space, Covid considerations. Any suggestions would be helpful!

Wellness 10 coincided with sprinkler maintenance. Students convinced me to let them make the most of it. They didn't disappoint. #myacsclassroom #mpscpssd

My students did a pretty cool thing #myacsclassroom #mpscpssd
