Friendliness isn't always a sign of trustworthiness. Warmth is easy to fake.
The foundations of trust are reliability and integrity. What counts isn't courtesy in the moment—it's keeping commitments over time.
The best way to inspire confidence is to consistently walk our talk.
Playing games in math can be an awesome way to practice strategies! Ms. Price’s grade 3’s are working on adding large numbers using an algorithm and decomposition and testing out their strategies during their game! 🙌🏼@TweedsmuirS
So proud of @TVDSB educators and administrators who gather tonight to learn more about assessments in math! Their commitment to supporting a love of mathematics and helping students improve their math skills is clear! @tvdsbmathk8#tvdsbproud#TVDSBmathactionplan
Making magic bracelets was so exciting! Fill your ten frame with 10 beads, then string onto your bracelet. Watch as they turn magic colours out in the sun!
Thanks for the inspiration @MelansonTeach 💙

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.
Teacher- librarians like @FatimaLeal21 engage students in cross- curricular learning and provide opportunities for students to apply their skills in rich learning experiences! I loved visiting this week! So much fun and excitement in the LLC @CaradocPS@Arleie
@laura_t19 class did some cookie and muffin baking yesterday. Students used their fraction learning to figure out measurements in the recipe. They did such a great job baking, cleaning and washing and the recipes were yummy! @CaradocPS@TVDSB_STEM@TVDSB
Digital tools support students’ consolidation of math skills, plus they provide educators, admin. & families with data related to areas that adults can assist students in their math learning. And, digital tools make math fun! #CMSTimpact#TVDSBmathactionplan@tvdsbmathk8
We have been working hard on quickly recognizing the number on dice and using the strategy of ‘Counting On’ from ten when we see a full 10 frame on the game board. #Numeracy#Grade1#TVDSB@LambethPS1
We need to teach math language/vocabulary to all Ss as if they have never heard of it before.
Why?
One needs to interact with a word 24 times (approx) before it becomes part their vocabulary.
90% of math language/vocabulary is not used/heard outside of math class.
Today we celebrate Literacy Day, recognizing the importance of literacy for dignity & human rights, and working toward a more literate & sustainable society. As educators, literacy is at the core of everything we do. #LiteracyDay
With the first week of school coming to an end, thank you to the @TVDSB staff (like these wonderful people @MWrightMustangs) who welcomed students and families back to school and supported such a great start to the school year! @Arleie
