Trying to keep those semantic pathways challenged despite the allure of brain shutdown on this lovely Monday morning so very, very near the end of the school year 😬#ibmyp #languageacquisition #middlehighschool

Finished out the year with a games day and a variety of choice: competition, cooperation, consoles, cards, and imagination! Favourites were Mario Kart, HP Lego, Codenames, Carcassonne, and Mafia #myCISB #middlehighschool

The first few weeks have been a fantastic whirlwind of reconnecting, building classroom community, and delving into books Canadian International School of Beijing! #myCISB #middleschool #highschool

My Ss from grades 7 - 12 Canadian International School of Beijing love #OneNote escape room style puzzles! Solving each clue gives a password to unlock a section of the notebook. Great fun for topic specific review or team building. #middleschool #highschool

In our study of Jerry Craft’s New Kid we’ve been exploring the various techniques graphic novel authors & artists use. Ss have made some great observations about how our brains process this complex text type! Canadian International School of Beijing #literacy #middleschool

We’re honoured to present the Survivors' flag. Survivors from across Canada helped create this expression of commemoration, meant for communities and individuals to show their commitment to remembrance and hope for Reconciliation. #NationalTRW nctr.ca/exhibits/survi…

Sometimes we forget the little things make a difference to “big kids” too! Our seniors Canadian International School of Beijing shared some giggles as they got to choose a “silly” folder for keeping track of their novel study papers. Flamingos, pineapples, planets, and polar bears were a hit! #IBDP

😂 A Beowulf #quizletlive wouldn’t be complete without epic music! Look at that intense concentration in the heat of battle #IBDP #LanguageandLiterature Canadian International School of Beijing

Students brainstormed two-sentence horror stories to ensure we’d all have trouble sleeping tonight! One of my favourites “Today is Sunday. Tomorrow is Monday.” 😂 #middleschool #Halloween #scarystories Canadian International School of Beijing

#IBDP #LanguageandLiterature students hard at work analyzing a literary extract Canadian International School of Beijing #myCISB

#IBDP #languageliterature @myCISB getting back into the text analysis mindset. Grade 11s trying out an intro challenge and Grade 12s competing to see which group can recall the most.

#IBMYP students Canadian International School of Beijing reading The Lord of the Flies created representations of the island, incorporating symbolism and characters’ opposing perspectives. Presenting the final product, they used text evidence to justify their choices. Proud of their creativity and analysis!
