I am so proud of our Royal Eco Alliance for achieving PLATINUM certification! ๐ Every student showed outstanding dedication in making Ross Drive a greener, more environmentally friendly school. ๐ @PeelSchools@PNeerja@EcoSchoolsCAN@PDSB_eco
As the year progressed these same jks are now blending cvc words and reading sight words. More importantly they are building their confidence and igniting a love for reading! ๐๐ @RossDrive@PNeerja@PeelSchools@UFLiteracy
Iโm super impressed at how well my class has done with their literacy skills this year! Many of them (especially jks) started out with very limited phonological skills.
K4 created self-portraits celebrating our diverse classroom community. Inspired by More Than Peach by Bellen Woodard, we discussed how everyone is unique, from our physical features to personal expression, and used this to guide our artwork. @PNeerja@RossDrive
Happy #PrideMonth from Sesame Street! Today and every day, we celebrate and uplift the LGBTQIA+ members of our community. Together, letโs build a world where every person and family feels loved and welcomed for who they are. โค๏ธ๐งก๐๐๐๐๐๐ค๐ค
I am very impressed with @Crayola Colors of the World Paint! My students were easily able to find a colour that matched their skin tone while painting their self portrait. #RepresentationMatters
@ssunderaswara@JBradshaw01@PeelSchools Brightspace is one of the most challenging and frustrating platform I have ever used. I tried really hard to use it last year and it was a flop for students for parents and for myself. I can write you a detailed list of all the bad things about it but I would run out of space.
@JBradshaw01@PeelSchools I have years and years of teaching resources on my drive like many other teachers. I canโt even fathom loosing all of that or trying to save it somehow. @PeelSchools google and all of its apps are amazing tools for 21st century learners!
Today we walked in honour of Terry Fox and everyone who has had cancer, is going through treatment for cancer, survived cancer, known someone with cancer and those who are no longer with us because of cancer. โค๏ธ
