Gr 11s are starting Maus by examining the modalities of the graphic novel form. We began by examining this selection from the Toronto Public Library.

I take for granted that I can just walk in, grab a bunch of high quality texts, and walk out 📚 ❤️

Gr. 9s used mind maps to develop a better understanding of themes in "The Marrow Thieves" 🧠🗺️

I was surprised that mind mapping was a new concept for some of them. Took more direct instruction than I had planned for, but the results were worth it!

Very excited to explore some new Indigenous graphic novels with NBE3C. The medium has been a real hit, and fascinating to teach.

Thank you Toronto Public Library for the haul! 📚 ❤️ 🦹‍♂️

Looking for 📚suggestions for my 11/12 world mythology class for next year.

I’m searching for novel retellings of myths and legends that are NOT based on the Greeks.

Thanks in advance 🙏

Just signed up for this fantastic opportunity through @thefoldcanada.bsky.social

My students LOVE "Scarborough" and "Kilt Pins", so who better to learn from than Catherine Hernandez?

Can't wait to share with them! ✍️ 📚

My students just finished The Crucible and are working on projects based on the text. I’m excited to see where they take me.
