Friday Feeling | Our beautiful world – The Ottawa Catholic School Board

For this week’s #ocsbFridayFeeling, students and educators focused on our wonderful world and the gifts it has given us. We are grateful for bus drivers, newborn chicks, trees, our senses and friends from faraway places. Track and Field events and rugby competitions made for a well-rounded week of using mind and body to enhance teamwork and physical endurance.

The serenity in focusing on our breathing, mindfulness and sit spot activity🧘 We used 4 of our senses to connect with nature. 👃 👀 👂 🤚 #ocsbForest @ocsbEco @takemeoutside #CNAC #ForestSchool #NatureSchool #nature #naturelove God’s gift of Creation pic.twitter.com/BE4vq5co4L

Kindergarten inquiries are the best! Learning all about how chicks hatch from eggs and noticing changes as they grow. So cute! #ocsbkindergarten #babychicks pic.twitter.com/bnT6tYqskM

Great day having the Gr 7 SS and Gr 11/12 NDW students collaborate to gain an understanding of The Seven Grandfather Teachings. Students used dot art to consolidate their learning in a beautiful way in our Mamidosewin room. #ocsbDeepLearning @ImmaculataOCSB @MsSueKehoe @Ms_Leahey pic.twitter.com/3EuqdRIvPu

“Our Beautiful World Inquiry” cont. 🌎♥️
We are blessed to have many families from different parts of the world. These Owl friends shared stories and thoughts about Nigeria. We enjoyed a video about Nigeria and we noticed some similarities between these friends.@BernadetteOCSB pic.twitter.com/fLtN5LJLuk
