In Edmodo messaging, write the feedback you received from your family in paragraph form: "I made... Two things that my family really liked about my recipe were...

LINES TO LIVE BY...
No one, including time, owes me anything. My life is a series of habits that are formed from the choices I make (and then continue to make) every single day. If I want healing, then I've got to figure out a way to face what hurt me. If I want growth, then I need to put in the hard work. If I want healthier relationships, then I will learn how to communicate what I need. I am not a product of what happens to me. What happens to me is simply a start point. My choice (the one I re-make every single day) is to use what happened for me to propel me forward. My choice.

Stay Active!
A Note From Mr. Greendahl PK-6 students, Hello students. I miss seeing you everyday. I hope you are trying to stay active. Here are some things to do while you are at home. Do our exercises each day: arm stretches, toe touches, floor stretches, jumping jacks, sit ups, push ups. In good weather younger students play outside; older students go for a walk or a jog. Try to exercise 15-30 minutes a day. P.S. hopefully we can get back soon for the indoor floor hockey championships. Mr. Greendahl

Hello North Border students and families! Welcome to the Speech + Language tab. My hope is that this will be a space where you can easily find activities and resources to support speech/language skills for students across a variety of ages and abilities. I will continue to update this page with additional resources so be sure to check back regularly. Please note that if your child has been receiving direct speech-language interventions at school this year, I will be in contact with your family directly to discuss programming options in the near future. If you would like to start receiving resources specific to your child's needs, please e-mail me and I will be sure to reply with materials that you can use during your time at home. If any questions or concerns arise during this time, please do not hesitate to contact me via e-mail. I am happy to help and support you in any way that I can. Thanks!

KEEPING A POSITIVE MINDSET
The 7 mindsets video to the right is a social emotional learning weekly video. This week's video is about turning problems into opportunities and thinking positively. It works for all ages. Younger kids would benefit from a caring adult watching with them and discussing it :) Challenge: Take two pictures of things you are thinking positively about. With an adult's help, post to social media with the hashtags #eaglespositive and #7mindsets. Adults, the kids can help you here !
