Thx @MelissaAllder for sharing your voice with us at our TVDSB ESL chat about racism in education. We need to keep having these uncomfortable conversations, it gives us insight and challenges the norms.Let’s keep learning, advocating and be the change!#Equityeducation
These last few weeks have really pushed me to look for ways I can change to make this world a more equitable place. I have been reading, listening and learning how to make changes. As Ts it is our responsibility to examine our own biases in order to create change.
I loved working in your classroom! Through your creativity, compassion and professionalism you transformed an empty JK/SK room into a magical place for learning!🔆@EagleHeightsPS thanks you for your exemplary work! @ELLtvdsb#bestsupplyteacherever
Before creating their squirrels nest the Ss created a plan and labeled it with the materials that they would need, and boy was it a long list! I loved how engaged and determined my Ss were at each stage 👍🏼
This is true parent engagement! We need parents to share their expertise and enrich our classrooms with their life experiences and culture. Challenge yourself to move beyond pizza lunches and bake sales! @DrDebbiePushor@EagleHeightsPS
I love seeing dual language texts as part of shared reading. Ss need to see themselves, their language and culture represented in their classrooms! https://t.co/PP8p52v4Gv#culturallyresponsiveteaching @EagleHeightsPS@RobinsonJeffery
Today a Ss wrote his name in both Arabic and English! Then another student came up to me with a dual language book “I can read this!”Celebrating & Welcoming L1 in our classrooms needs to be part of our daily practice! #ELLtvdsb @EagleHeightsPS
7 steps is filled with quick impactful strategies that had us all talking and sharing ideas. Learning from our co-workers is often the best and most meaningful PD! What an amazing group of educators @EagleHeightsPS@RobinsonJeffery
There is no other job I would rather do! Everyday I am able to learn along side of my Ss and help them discover how capable they are. They make me laugh, smile and give me hope for future generations. Being part of their newcomer journey is such a privilege.
Your dedication to creating comprehensible content and meaningful experiences for targeted output are commendable! You could feel the sense of pride and accomplishment radiating from the Learn class today! #amazing@Sheppard1Sheri@ELLtvdsb@EagleHeightsPS
I was nominated by @Sheppard1Sheri to post the covers of 7 books that I love . No explanation/reviews. With each post, I ask another to take on the challenge. Today is day 1. I would like to nominate @NataleeWales
@sheilapowell18 We need to get to know our families. Seek to understand. Find ways to work around language differences. When we listen to a family's hopes and dreams for their child we soon discover we often have the same goals #teamwork@EagleHeightsPS#familyvisits@ELLtvdsb
