This fits into science class all year long.

This is a monumental piece that every reading teacher should read, led by Reid Smith @Smithre5 and @PamelaSnow2 tandfonline.com/doi/full/10.10…

You've seen our call on your feeds and it continues: we need the Canadian government to do everything in it's power to call for an immediate ceasefire in #Gaza. Stand with us and read our full statement here: bit.ly/3QzzHQq

This end of year mixed media project has yielded amazing conversations. The more I look at each piece, the more I see 🔎🙇🏻‍♀️ Gr 8s @WalnutGrovePS represent inequalities they feel strongly about, using Art to amplify their #voice. @PeelArts1 @PeelEML

Grade 7s @WalnutGrovePS putting stewardship into action with @CVC_CA #BranchOut program. We planted native species like red dogwood, white spruce, cedar and pussy willows at Meadowvale Conservation Area. @PDSB_eco @PeelSchools

So proud of ALL Gr8 videos submitted to Canada's @WDatSchool documentary competition. The gratification that came this week was even more exciting! Congrats on Best Film 2023 @WalnutGrovePS Ss! Vos techniques médiatiques sont impressionnantes. @PeelSchools @PDSB_eco @PeelEML

Loved trying paper quilling with friends at Deepa Krishnan's @PaintNiteTO event! New favourite media that appeals to my left-brained persnicketyness 🤓

@awesomelab644 Agreed. We hit platinum last year and are doing many of the same and new wonderful things this year but it's just too much busy work to complete the reports. So we may not get any certification at all this year. Credit isn't what counts but it's certainly motivating for Ss.

Wishing joy, happiness and peace to all those who are celebrating Eid-ul-Fitr, the celebration that marks the end of the month of Ramadan.

Grade 8s @WalnutGrovePS filming @LSF_LST @waterdocsff while I hang with the local birds. #inspired to take action to improve their local watershed and community space through litter cleanup, chemical fertilizer reduction, eco road salt and more! 🐟🦆🚙🚯 @PDSB_eco

@awesomelab644 Well done! Such a powerful and rich project.

Here are some suggested guidelines when considering the use of Indigenous Knowledges in your classroom

On National Indigenous Languages Day, we honour the importance of Indigenous languages and celebrate the Indigenous languages of the First Nation, Métis, and Inuit students, staff, and educators in our PDSB community.

Today, on Transgender Day of Visibility, let's raise awareness around the issues of transgender discrimination, continue to celebrate the accomplishments and empower our transgender and gender nonconforming community.

78F and 8F paired up with their @WalnutGrovePS Learning Buddies today to share their #plurilingual sound poems and activities, en français, Spanish, and Punjabi. They were a hit!! Inspired by @BourgoinRenee's @PeelSchools workshop.

.@WalnutGrovePS Ss applying their @peel21st learning at @PeelSchools @skillsontario competition. Showcasing @VEXRobotics @LEGOMindstormsN @LEGO_Education and @kiddereducation hand tools. Way to go team!

Grade 8s @WalnutGrovePS consolidating our Water Systems learning with @BramGrowGreen. Demo of road salt, herbicides/pesticides, pollutants from our cars running into our waterways. But vegetation and other permeable surfaces reduce runoff! #MindYourSalt @PDSB_eco
