"To make life a little better for people less fortunate than you. That's what I think a meaningful life is. One lives not just for oneself, but for one's community."

Grateful for the memories and growth that I’ve gained here over the last three years thanks to the staff and students encountered. And now, onwards to Hong Kong for a new chapter of challenge and change!

The greatest things you will teach will not be through your lessons, your curriculum, or your assessments.

The greatest things will be taught by your example.

Your kindness.
Your humility.
Your passion.
Your curiosity.
Your love of learning.

Those things teach the lesson.

Finally got a chance to completely update my online teaching portfolio! The last time I did a solid rehaul of it was during my B.Ed almost three years ago and it’s humbling to see the amount of growth since then. Check it out: https://t.co/k9aecbSU6i

Relationships, relationships, relationships: It doesn’t take much to create a connection, but it does take intention.

JOURNEY TO ALASKA: As a formative activity for ENG4C’s novel study of Into the Wild, students practiced writing from another perspective by taking on Chris McCandless’s voice in postcards detailing the time spent in various locations he visited during his travels 🇺🇸

“Change is inevitable. Growth is optional.” After finishing up our short story unit focusing on themes of changes, expectations, and growing up, the ENG2D class made some fantastic supporting visuals connecting their own experiences to the stories! 🖼

This graphic is a great starting point for developing learning goals and plans which focus on the *use* of the language. Understand, express, react, narrate, explain, give preferences, etc. #fslchat

Relationships drive everything. Relationships build purpose and connection - same for adults as it is for students. Don’t kid yourself that you can work around relationships. We have to work through relationships.

[David Geurin @DavidGeurin]

Just like all students are capable of learning, every teacher is also capable of learning. Develop the mindset that everyone in the school is a learner, not just the students. We must test our own beliefs and practices and continue to grow and change. #edchat #FutureDriven

Congratulations to the Class of 2019 in all that you’ve accomplished! Keep working hard towards your future endeavours 🎓
