Congratulations to all the actors, musicians, vocalists, dancers, and stage crew members who honoured those who have served and fallen on this 100th anniversary of the Armistice.  We remember.  Lest we forget.

This May, Grade 10 Canadian History students had the opportunity to learn about the personal stories of Holocaust and Residential School survivors, Nate Leipciger and Theodore Fontaine.  Our students read and discussed Nate's memoir, created a time capsule and museum exhibit to showcase their learning, interacted with both survivors, and displayed their work for other students from schools across the TDSB and for audiences at a public event at the AGO.  Throughout this journey, our students demonstrated and reflected on their learning in profound and meaningful ways.  Student work was also featured online through Facing History and Ourselves' Creating Meaningful Responses to Memoir and Engaging in Reciprocity.  https://facingcanada.facinghistory.org/memoir-blog
