This is explicit teaching! Letter formation, articulation, and mnemonics from @ONlit_social one small part of a lesson!

Nov 20 is Transgender Day of Remembrance, a time to remember those whose lives were lost in acts of anti-transgender violence. The day raises the visibility of transgender people and addresses issues that members of the trans community face. #TDOR #TLDSBfamily

We have started a partnership with SickKids and now have testing kits at the school. If you or your child are feeling ill please take a kit, drop it off at the school and they will let you know if you have Influenza, RSV or COVID.

Our K students use TIDE (Topic, Important Details, End) from @thinkSRSD to orally describe their show and share photo to the class each week & now we are working on the print piece. They dictate, I scribe, they copy - but they will soon be sounding out their own words/sentences!

Today is the festival of Diwali, often referred to as the “Festival of Lights.” It is associated with themes of happiness, wealth, prosperity and warmth. For those celebrating, have a happy and safe Diwali.

❤️Before they can read sentences, children need to be taught how to read words.
🧡Before they can read words, children need to be taught how to read syllables.
💛Before they can read syllables, children need to be taught how to read letters and blend letter sounds.
💙Before they can read letters, children need to be taught how to articulate speech sounds (ex. /v/).
Reading is not a natural process like learning to speak and understand spoken language. A structured literacy approach to reading and spelling sets students up for success! #StructuredLiteracy @RideauPS_LDSB
Battle-bots had the gr7/8 class fully engaged in Ms Chan’s class a couple weeks ago. Students needed to construct and manoeuvre their bot to burst another bot’s balloon. #dashrobot @RegentHeightsPS

The seventh day of #Navratri is dedicated to the Goddess ‘Kaalratri”. She is the fiercest and most violent avatar of Goddess Durga. She is the one who destroys ignorance & removes darkness & evil. She is also known as Shubankari which means the 'doer of good' in Sanskrit.
