This week I had my Grade 8 students draw what isolation feels like. They continue to blow me away with their creativity! #socialstudies #middleschool #japan #isolation

@d_martin05 Congrats!!! So excited for you and all the students that are scheduled for a 3 hour math class on Wednesday nights! 😂

Diplomas were implemented in 1974, and look almost identical today.

Imagine if your doctor based her judgment about your health using tools not updated since 1974.

Maybe it is time #abed leaves these archaic tests on the shelf of history

Last Friday both grade 8 Social classes presented museum displays centered around a famous Renaissance person. It was great to see all the ideas they came up with! #socialstudies #middleschool #renaissance

This week has been busy for our PBL cosmetology class. We had Nadine Kohlman from from Hair by Nadine come in and teach the students how to do some men’s hair cuts on our lucky volunteers. Then we had Katie Campbell from Twisted Scissors show the girls how to foil hair!💇🏽

This afternoon we presented about famous German people in my second languages class. One student went above and beyond by creating an original animation about Wilhelm Röntgen. He even recorded himself speaking German! #german #secondlanguage #technology #innovation

Thank you, Veterans, for your service and sacrifice. Today at 11:00 am, no matter where you are, please pause to observe two minutes of silence.

Last week was filled with Halloween celebrations! From Halloween makeup and hair in cosmetology to pumpkin carving and door decorating it was a fun (and exhausting) week! #halloween #middleschool

Phrases said to me today as a middle school teacher. #1 most of the time I don’t even know when I fart, other people tell me. #2 let’s write “hope dies here” on your door, I like your class but I just think it’ll be funny! #middleschool

I highly recommend a weekend away in the mountains after surviving another month of pandemic teaching. #selfcare #middleschool #October

Today Alberta's government will officially declare Sept. 30, 2021 as the Day for Truth and Reconciliation. This is a day for all of us to honour residential school survivors, their families and communities to and forever remember the children who never returned home. #NDTR
