And so closure to a historical school year comes to an end in Class 6S Success. Capped it off with a story and a historical artifact delivered to every student! Thanks to my teaching partner for designing the template and the Ss who inspired us every day. #Closure #grateful

Spending our cloudy and rainy Friday morning in Class 6S Success reading and discussing On the Trapline by @DaveAlexRoberts. Picked this up curbside @kingwestbooks #everychildmatters #RepresentationMatters #NationalIndigenousHistoryMonth

[S. deJonge @DejongeSusan]

Ss in Class 6S Success finish reading Refugee by @AlanGratz today! We took five minutes to respond in the chat and digest the heartbreaking journeys of Josef, Isabel and Mahmoud. I honestly needed the time to wipe away the tears... #humanity #weareallconnected

[S. deJonge @DejongeSusan]

Ss in Class 6S Success practice synthesizing as we near the end of Refugee by @AlanGratz . Today, a S said, " I looked ahead and there are no more chapters on Josef!" A stream of predictions followed... #readingcommunity

Back in March, Ss in Class 6S Success collaborated and responded to the Water Song by the Akwesasne Women Singers with water pledges. Each day, a S reads one during the morning announcements @HWDSB. Today's rain calls for a revisit #MusicMonday #IndigenousHistoryMonth

Ss in Class 6S Success celebrate Pride Month @HWDSB . S created a slide presentation and provides a Pride Moment each day to help everyone understand gender identity and the terms in LGBTQI2S+. #studentvoice #Pride2021 #languagematters #inclusion

A big thank you to our guest speaker from @TourForHumanity for providing a Canadian context of the roots of hate, including a connection to the MS St. Louis in our novel study, Refugee by @AlanGratz #KNOWLEDGE #empathy #Action

A mini lesson on the use of foreshadowing as a literary device to create suspense and tension in Class 6S Success today. Fictional narratives rock! #literacy #WritingCommunity

HWDSB is starting a new committee to hear the voices of Two Spirit and LGBTQIA+ students across the school board. Before it starts, we want to hear from students in grades 7 to 12 who self-identify as Two Spirit and LGBTQIA+.

[Isaiah Shafqat @isaiah_shafqat]

What is Two-Spirit?
2S is a umbrella term for people who identify as Indigenous & Queer. It's a closed practice & in Indigenous culture, we were and still are considered spiritual gifts from the creator, as we can see through the eyes of both men and women.
I am Two-Spirit🏳️‍🌈
