@aminapatelkhan Inna lillahi wa inna ilayhi rajioon. Amina, I’m so sorry for your loss. Prayers for you and your family.

[Anne Frank PS (YRDSB) @afpsyr]

We are teaching that kindness is an action word.

We talk about what kindness looks like and feels like. One act leads to another... a daily ripple effect as we work on creating an inclusive and safe school culture & community.

A student was so excited to share parts of his religious identity with us. Our lives become so much richer when we take the time to learn about one another.

[ESSAH @ESSAHyr]

Remember educators, Just because #Diwali has passed it doesn’t mean we can’t talk about about it in our classroom.

Making identity visible in safe and culturally respectful ways helps our student feel like they matter.

Changing the story to include voices and experiences that have never been heard. These bios were also part of our Remembrance Day slide deck this year. @bondlakeps #LestWeForget

@bondlakeps your Ss are so excited to be painting with the wonderful @Sameena_Bhimani! Making connections between the waves they're painting and the waves of Bond Lake.

@RKaderdina @rukhsanabooks @AEMSyr @yrdsbinclusion @YRDSB @EVS_YRDSB King for a Day is such a beautiful story...and Rukhsana Khan is an amazing storyteller! I’m currently sitting with my son, both of us riveted.

A beautiful love story with themes of family, loss, overcoming difficult situations by an incredible YRDSB educator @SajidahWrites recommended by @KhadijahRawji & the entire AEMS team. A rare opportunity to hear Muslim teen voice #AEMSBookLove #IHM2020 #IslamicHeritageMonth

[Zohrin Mawji @ZohrinM]

You are never an anti-racist educator - rather, you are becoming one. The learning never ends.

Each one of us has made mistakes - I have as well. This is when the deepest learning happens. Just keep doing the work. Try setting a precedence for others. Hold yourself accountable.

[S Bhimani @Sameena_Bhimani]

@madamesaynor Beautiful!

@RKaderdina @AEMSyr @yrdsbinclusion @YRDSB As a student, I went through school often feeling invisible. While listening in as my daughter participated in yesterday’s session with @LifeAsWali I felt hope. It was like someone was saying “I see you. You matter.” Thank you @AEMSyr @yrdsbinclusion @YRDSB @YRDSBDirector
