Hello all! I hope you are having a great day. This is just a short notice on two things: There is a typo on the Decimal Numbers on Number Lines worksheet (Math 6.1). There are only 8 segments on the number line for the first question, instead of 10! Please draw in your own lines […]
Hello Division 2! As mentioned in a post a few weeks ago, Reyhan’s mother, Shairose, has generously offered to share her knowledge on COVID-19, as a nurse in ER. Since there is so much information going around it can be overwhelming, she offered to do a video call Q&A to answer any students’ or parents’ questions. […]

Hello everyone, Next week I will begin posting assignments in Microsoft Teams.

Yesterday, I sent emails to the parent email addresses on file at the school office to send student log-ins and passwords […]
Hi Div. 2! I miss teaching you! I hope you have been enjoying the few hints of nice weather we have had this week. I am trying to get outside more often, even just for walks around my neighbourhood, to get fresh air and watch the signs of spring. This post is an update on […]
Hello dear students and families, I am missing you all a whole bunch! I am disappointed to not be able to spend time with you in class, and miss your joyfulness, silliness, creative brilliance and thoughtfulness. I am sure we are all feeling the strangeness of this time. Staying home for our own health and […]
