March 8 is #InternationalWomensDay and is a day to recognize the incredible women of the world & continue commitments to gender equity. #ChooseToChallenge #IWD2021

Happy #InternationalWomensDay ! Today, we read a passage from this fantastic novel! We also had many discussions surrounding the importance of gender equality and lifting each other up. Princess Anne FIPS #Genderequality #Inclusion #MiddleSchoolTeacher #WomenInSTEAM

On 17 May, the International Day Against Homophobia, Transphobia and Biphobia, I support equal rights for all and an end to discrimination! #IDAHOBIT #IDAHOBIT2021

A beautiful mural by a beautiful soul. She wanted to leave a legacy. And she sure did. #OurLondonFamily

Proud to have stood outside Oakridge tonight, with my son, a grade 9 Oakridge student, and others from the London community, to show our love and support. @tvdsb commits to standing up against hatred.

Our class has been enjoying a more hands-on approach to learning about ratios. We compared triangles using geoboards to determine whether they’re similar, congruent or unique. We also created proportional drawings.✖️➗🎨 #math #grade78 #crosscurricular Princess Anne FIPS Thames Valley DSB

🗒🏈 Students solidified their understanding of percentage, rate and ratio via a game of “Paper Football” in class today! I think we have some future NPFL champions on our hands! Thames Valley DSB Princess Anne FIPS TVDSBmath #intermediatemath #makingmathfun #kinestheticlearning

🌊Thank you Isaac Murdoch for your beautiful presentation about the importance of protecting our water. Our class has had many continued discussions regarding water conservation, Indigenous rights and art as a powerful vehicle for change. Thank you for educating us! #waterislife

Ramadan Mubarak to our Muslim friends and colleagues celebrating Ramadan! We wish you a month of reflection and prayer that fills the heart with peace, harmony, joy, and blessings.

🧠Students worked in centres today in math to develop their metacognition by choosing which subject areas they needed to practice most for their upcoming quiz. They were able to choose to work in groups or independently. So impressed! Thames Valley DSB Princess Anne FIPS #78math #metacognition

👩🏼‍🔬🔬Today, students implemented their knowledge of ratios and experimented with Non-Newtonian Fluids by creating OOBLEK. They also left our classroom spotless afterwards! Princess Anne FIPS Thames Valley DSB #intermediatescience #statesofmatter #experiment #makingmathfun #elementaryscience

🌎💕We had a blast celebrating Earth Day by cleaning up our local park today! Our students handled this task with respect and maturity (whilst still having a blast!). Princess Anne FIPS Thames Valley DSB #EarthDay #ElementarySchool #ParkCleanUp #LuckiestTeacher

🎨✌🏼We had many meaningful conversations inspired by Ukrainian artist, Anya Romanenko’s piece. As a class, we considered the meaning of ‘peace’ and how we can create safe spaces in our community. Art = Communication. Thames Valley DSB Aeolian Hall Princess Anne FIPS #teachpeace #art #language

⛴Students got the chance to practice plotting points on the Cartesian Plane by playing a game of Battleship today! Princess Anne FIPS Thames Valley DSB #makingmathfun #makingmathmeaningful #intermediatemath #grade78

🏳️‍🌈Having lots of discussions today about creating a safe and inclusive environment in our schools and communities.🏳️‍⚧️ Princess Anne FIPS TVDSB Equity and Inclusive Education #IDAHOBIT2022 #EveryoneIsWelcomeHere

June 6, 2022, is the one-year anniversary when our community lost several members of “Our London Family.” It caused lasting harm to our Muslim community, to the family’s friends and loved ones, and to our city and nation as a whole. The Afzaal’s will forever be #OurLondonFamily.

When your students are so excited about a concept (that previously frustrated them) that they make buttons! Thames Valley DSB TVDSBmath Princess Anne FIPS #socialemotionallearning #perseverance #intermediateteacher
