Happy International Women’s Day!
Chúc mừng ngày quốc tế phụ nữ ❤️!
We were given lovely flowers today at school 🌻, now students are making a card for our amazing support staff. #WomensDay2023#vietnam
Today at the War Remnants Museum I broke down- so did many others. Hollywood movies & documentaries are nothing compared to this. The war crimes and atrocities committed during the Vietnam war are horrendous &Agent Orange still impacts people TODAY! #VietnamWar#hcmc
I created space for students to freely display any work they are proud of if they wish. It’s generated a lot of discussion from other students, and pride of what students are able to do. It’s definitely a keeper strategy for me. #grade7#studentvoice#vietnam#hcmc
After seeing all the students practicing drawing in the style of Keith Haring, I am sooo looking forward to seeing their final products that promote anti-bullying & school character traits ❤️ #artmatters#antibullying#keithharing
Landmines remain a big problem in Cambodia. Thousands have been killed or injured. Today we visited @herorats and learned all about how trained rats can clear a tennis court sized area of landmines in 4 minutes. #landmines#cambodia#rats
Getting ready for the Year of the Cat! It is so exciting to be back from the December break, and watch the school get ready to celebrate the Vietnamese #LunarNewYear, #Tet. #YearOfTheCat#HCMC
We ❤️ dragons! These apex predators roam around freely along with deer, buffalo and wild boar in Komodo National Park, Indonesia. Our local guide carefully took photos (zoomed in) #komodo#dragons#indonesia#komodonationalpark
Ever tried #luwak coffee? We got a great tour at #Satria coffee plantation in Ubud, Bali. The coffee beans are digested & pooped out by these cute creatures, the beans are then processed & turned to high prized coffee. #Bali#coffee#Indonesia
Time using 9’s ❤️
I finally put this up in my classroom tonight! After doing 4 fours & 5 fives activities at the beginning of the year, I can’t wait to see what happens when students look at the clock tomorrow morning. Will they even notice 🤞?

100% engaged! Awesome #Math review activity- Using the numbers 1,3,4 & 6 exactly ONE time, create expressions that will evaluate to every natural number from 1. Students could use ,-,x, ÷, exponents & brackets. #grade7#middleschool
Rhinos are disappearing fast 😢A big thank you to @WildernessFdnSA We learned that 9300 rhino have been poached for their horns since 2008. Vietnam is one of the biggest consumers. Our students are our future to help spread awareness. #Vietnam#rhinos
Look who showed up to play Predator & Prey with the Gr.7s at our local park today. We were talking about frogs & toads in the ecosystem & poof! 🪄 It appeared ready to play its part in the food chain! #grade7#ecosystems#HCMC#vietnam
And that’s a wrap! My first Saturday curriculum showcase (a.k.a. curriculum night at home) at an international school is complete. It was lovely to meet families and the community ❤️ #internationalschool#vietnam#HCMC#curriculumshowcase
