It’s hard to believe that we’re already well into this year’s second quadmester. Although the past few months have seemingly flown by, when I take a minute to reflect on how much work has been done in launching the new de-streamed Grade 9 mathematics course, I’m blown away. From making major pedagogical shifts in support of equity and inclusion to ongoing collaboration and resource building/sharing, I’m constantly reminded of how dedicated our teachers are to the success and overall well-being of their students. Through engaging and uplifting classroom visits, I continue to be inspired by our students’ motivation and resilience. As we venture forth (with a continued, but no longer surprising lack of support/clarity from the Ministry of Education), I wish you all the best for a smooth and enjoyable quad two. As always, please feel free to contact me anytime with questions or suggestions.
