This year we were able to send 2 teachers to Teachers College June Summer Institutes in New York.



Ann Fung

June Writing Institute

Honoured to have had the chance to learn directly from the TC guru Lucy Calkins and her knowledgeable and passionate staff developers this past June at the summer institute in New York City.  After spending a week learning from the best, I was inspired by their motivation to drive educators to the next level in literacy.  I entered the full week writing program surrounded by passionate educators from around the world who were all committed to making a difference of literacy in the lives of children.  I left with not only the reaffirmation of this but more, tools to understand how to make my workshops even better for my students, how literacy can support the curriculum and teachers within my own school and a new network of individuals around the world who I can now connect with to share our ideas.  Most importantly, affirmation that we as a school are providing a rich and challenging learning experience for our students in literacy.  I eagerly anticipate to share what I have learned with my fellow colleagues and students!






Sarah Stewart

June Writing Institute

Last June, I was given the opportunity of a lifetime to attend the annual Writer’s Workshop Conference at the Teacher’s College at Columbia University in New York, along with my friend and colleague, Ann Fung.
The workshops took place over 5 days and were made up of sessions covering topics such as phonics, authorship and teaching and learning strategies.
Attending the conference offered us the opportunity to network with kindergarten teachers from around the world and to share our knowledge and ideas with each other.
This year, I am looking forward to applying what I learned at the workshops in my own classroom with the goal of making writing fun and accessible to all students.
