I joined @MsPYeung in supervising @DSC_EDU's LGBTQ+ Alliance Club. Our Ss took the initiative to raise awareness for Transgender Day of Remembrance. In addition, they organized a nail polish and makeup event, to raise funds for the charity Gender Empowerment.
The Dunk Tank is back! During recesses and after school this week, students (and parents) have an opportunity to soak DSC staff! $20 for 3 bean bags for students and $50 for 3 beanbags for parents. All money raised will be donated to #operationsantaclaus. Let's dunk, DSC! π
Student Council has been working hard since September to make fun activities for you to play during first recess! Find them tomorrow :) Don't forget to wear a costume! Happy Halloween ππ»
At the National Counselling & Psychotherapy Conference today. It was great to hear therapists and psychologists view on important topics surrounding mental health and well being. #NCPC
If youβre in a position to empower others and help shift the culture in your school, then take a page out of @HendrickseEDUβs playbook.
It has been incredible seeing his impact on his school community though his sharing on social media this year, but itβs been even more remarkable hearing from his colleagues about how truly special of an educator and person John is.
Our essays are complete! Assigning a personal topic (spring break) allows students a manageable starting point to learn and apply so many great transferrable writing skills. πβ¨ I am very impressed with the final products. Well done Level 2 ESL students!
@MrRoes Absolutely! We have spent a lot of time on these essays, but there has been so much growth and I am very impressed with their final products. Let's chat!
Our culminating essays are almost ready to be submitted, but first, we need to practice our editing skills! In ESL class, we identified and corrected grammatical errors in sentences taken from our essays. Correct answers earned us a chance to throw a suction ball at a target! π―
Grade 5 and 6 Spring Dance! ππΊWe had so much fun today dancing and playing with our friends. Thank you Student Council for all your help this year planning and running events. Your efforts have contributed greatly to our school community.
Today we took the Elementary Student Council and Announcement Team to Ninja Force π₯· We had some much fun celebrating these school leaders today! @RebeccaMarans
@MrRoes@bookdepository Also, there's a used book store in HK for kids books in Central called reBooked HK. We should definitely go at the beginning of the school year.
@MrRoes@bookdepository This site ships internationally - https://t.co/N9IjSug6tb some books are pricier than they would have been on BD, but it's something!
As an English teacher, it breaks my heart to hear that #BookDepository is closing down. They helped me stock my classroom library and provided books for my students. They made it so simple to order books hassle free. Such a shame π
@mrjtucker I'm starting Wonder with my students after spring break. This book always makes me think of you. First time I'm teaching it. If you have any tips, would love to hear them!
