Sunday afternoon listening to ENG 4U students share hidden chapters, podcasts and thoughtful annotations of their chosen novels. Amazing content. #studentchoice is so vital to learning. @MargaretAtwood, you would love the “Gilead Gossip” podcast. 🎤
Celebrating all the beautiful and diverse cultures here at Saint Andre @BessetteBulldog through dance and song. Thank you to the students for generously sharing your passions and gifts.
What an blessed morning it is having @orlandobowen@BessetteBulldog today. He truly is a “messenger of hope”. Our students have taken away so much from you, Orlando. 🙏
Amazing, inspiring work, art students. Thank you for contributing your talents as we continue to educate and celebrate #BlackHistoryMonth
And thank you for supporting and engaging @msfeliciayong. 🙏
Consolidating understanding and applying creative thinking. And playing with #lego! ENG 4U’s building the boat and sharing knowledge of personification and symbolism in @omarelakkad’s #WhatStrangeParadise.
What an absolute blessing to virtually welcome @omarelakkad to our classroom to share with our students virtually about the birth #whatstrangeparadise S’s asked about characters, symbolism, and narrative structure. And of course, the ending. 🙏
Welcomed Tyler and @tmdenomme into our grade 9 English class today to share with us their knowledge, perspective and insights as we begin to study @WabKinew’s #WalkinginTwoWorlds. @LDCSB
Getting excited to start the multi text unit with grade 9’s. S’s we’re given introductions to each text, and then completed a form to choose option #1 and option #2. #studentchoicematters
Fantastic Friday in grade 9 English. Read @SaraFarizan’s “Why I Learned to Cook” as a class and learned about what was on the table at S’s grandma’s houses, and how one S’s Dad also sometimes speaks “Farsglish”. #makingconnections
When you are exploring and discussing Marshall McLuhan’s “The medium is the message” in ENG 4U, and the Queen dies mid lesson. 🤯 #criticalthinking#reallifelearning@LDCSB
@jeffgarvinbooks’ Symptoms of Being Human will be a refreshing choice for our grade 9’s in September. Such a compelling story with real educative moments about what it feels like to question yourself and your identity. #studentchoice
Looking forward to sharing @chrisbosh’s inspirational words, leadership and perspective with our grade 9’s. It will be a great choice for students who see competition and sport as their passion and drive. #keepreading#studentchoicematters
Nourishing our trees for the hot, summer months. A huge thanks to @UTRCAmarketing for the guidance and help, and to our eager students and staff who weren’t afraid to pick up a shovel. @LDCSB@EcoSchoolsCAN
