@KhanKhanfa Sorry it was such a long recovery! Glad you’re finally recovering! My brother-in-law is back in the hospital with long Covid… as much as I’d love to be over all of this, I don’t think we’re there yet 😔 😷
Gr 3s spent time deepening their understanding of Treaties during #TreatiesRecognitionWeek. Great connections (& new questions) sparked by watching videos, taking part in webinars with @IsaacMurdoch1 & Shannon Paul, reading & having knowledge building discussions @HDSBIndigenous
So impressed by the Grade 3s’ thoughtful reflections on our visit with HDSB’s Indigenous Knowledge Guide! Thank you to @vanderwalc & @MrsTPhil for leading a thought provoking knowledge building circle and capturing the students’ ideas so beautifully! @HDSBIndigenous@HDSBEquity
Grade 4s had lots of fun learning from each other today! Three different sets of students ran a breakout room to teach a subject of their choice... so amazing to see the presentations they created, the art activities they led and the knowledge and information that was shared!
