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

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.

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! ✍️ 📚

Already feeling overwhelmed with my decision to highlight all the speaking parts - but I love to teach novels this way. 💙📚 📖 #iteachenglish

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