Visited @beal_innovates -you will find...engaged students, real-world problem solving, balanced learning of 4 credits, team-teachers in a positive environment. “I like learning when I have choices and care about the topic. If I’m just told what to do, I don’t care.”-student

Huge shout out to @STEMatSaunders Already when I ask my Grade 9 son what he’s learning at school I have no idea what he’s talking about #Science

Imagine S.O.L.E. stations with extra Hand hygiene and distance. If your posters are laminated, like smartboards, you should be able to at least have a T demo version up. Also we have a Jamboard version of Project Canvas for Ss to go digital - will share soon

Worth reminding folks that lower numbers of students attending our schools (Eg parents opting out/opting for online) doesn’t REDUCE class size. Rather, there will be reorganization based on the number of students back to regular sizes.

UPDATE: As a result of the #OECTA complaint before the OLRB, the FULL results of the government’s “largest ever” education consultation will become available – proof of opposition to Ford’s cuts will FINALLY see the light of day! #onlab #onpoli #onted

2 days with 500 Future Sabres! Can't for this group in September! @SaundersOne @STEMatSaunders

@STEMatSaunders students welcomed grade 8s from @WSherwoodFox @byronnorthview and Byron Somerset to @SaundersOne with some STEM demos! #tvdsb

[STEM@Saunders @STEMatSaunders]

Thank you to all of the families that joined us tonight as @STEMatSaunders students shared their experiences with the program. We are already looking forward to next semester! @SaundersOne @TVInnovates #innovation

@STEMatSaunders Orientation saw Ts modeling collaboration as new Ss completed their first team challenge: stack a cup of towers using an elastic, 6 strings, and no talking! @SaundersOne @TVDSB @TVInnovates #teamwork

[STEM@Saunders @STEMatSaunders]

@STEMatSaunders Ss share their Passion Projects with grades 6-8. They are articulate, engaging, and thoughtful young people. We spent the p.m. blasting rockets in the yard in our student-designed T-shirts and watching a student-created year end video. It has been a privilege.

the FEEL of MUSIC on display at today's grade 9 @STEMatSaunders understanding culminating event. Great learning happening @TVDSB

[Rick Pardo @rickpardo]

Explaining Einstein's theory of General Relativity in Grade 9 - one of dozens of brilliant expressions of understanding from @STEMatSaunders culminating activities next exhibition 19 June @TVDSB

@STEMatSaunders representing at the Relay for Life today! I love my job!

To keep Indigenous partners in the dark on Indigenous curriculum changes, & then consult AFTER the curriculum release is troubling. @LisaThompsonMPP is keeping everyone in the dark.

Indigenous voice must be at the forefront of this process. #onted #onpoli #edchat #OSSTF

Prototyping a foldable solar panel for space travel in STEM @SaundersOne #tvdsb How can we get it to open and close on its own?

[STEM@Saunders @STEMatSaunders]

Busy morning in STEM @SaundersOne as Ss code Microbits games and use #VNPS in math to determine x, y intercepts. #tvdsb

[STEM@Saunders @STEMatSaunders]

Subjects don't exist in isolation outside of school. Break down the silos and amazing growth happens for Ss and Ts! #tvdsb @rickpardo

[STEM@Saunders @STEMatSaunders]

@STEMatSaunders Ss when asked what they are learning in the program responded: "1. working together, 2. doing projects, 3. designing things, 4. using new technologies, 5. more freedom and interaction with others." Notice that they did NOT answer, Science, Tech, English, Math.
