Thank you @gidinski for a very clearly presented, informative, and thought-provoking session today. Gender neutral vs gender expansive signs and why to avoid using they/them for all students are just a couple of new insights. @newwestschools @BCPVPA
Sewing and decorating our #UglyChristmasSweater ornaments! So proud of all of these students for learning a new skill and showing an incredible amount of perseverance
In 1994, the first Aboriginal Veterans Day was recognized in Manitoba on Nov. 8. It became a nationally marked occasion soon after that.
David Ward says he and other veterans in B.C. were instrumental in spreading the day of remembrance throughout Canada. https://t.co/nfFR2PIw9g
These Edmontonians spent several days building 215 miniature teepees on the steps of St. Joseph’s Basilica, one for each child found buried on the grounds at the former Kamloops Indian Residential School.
Following the tragedy in Kamloops, my class decided to create a shoe memorial inspired by Haida artist Tamara Bell. “We created this to honour the victims and survivors of residential schools and to remind people this can never happen again” #EveryChildMatters 🧡
It’s imperative that we get comfortable being uncomfortable. As my students said today, “ it’s hard to talk about this but we need to so that it never happens again.” #everychildmatters Thank you @luudisk for this poignant piece.
Creating beautiful soapstone carvings and the legs broke off one of my student’s bears. He took a deep breath and told me he wanted to keep carving. Look at what he created! A true #GrowthMindset! #resilience#creativity

Bubble science! Ms. Ward and Ms. Ramens’ classes explored the “why” behind bubbles, including: why are bubbles different colours? Why are bubbles always circular? Why does bubble solution work better than just soap and water?
Today we learned all about Islamic architecture and the components that make it unique like symmetry and detailed patterns. After learning about world renowned architect #ZahaHadid we created our own buildings using this criteria! #EidMubarak#Mathematics
