Asalamu Alaikum and Welcome to Grade Seven!
I am joyful to announce I will be the home room teacher for Grade 7B. My name is Sr Storiy and I am truly grateful to Allah (swt) for us to embark on this exciting journey together. I would also like to take this opportunity to introduce myself. I am a Graduate from University of Toronto Scarborough with High Distinction and have a Bachelor’s Degree in a variety of core subjects including Anthropology, Geography and Women/Gender Studies. I also finished my Bachelors of Education Degree at University of Toronto. I also received The Miyumi Sasaki Initial Teacher Education Award as an advocate for social justice and equity in education and in the larger community.
This experience has given me a significant understanding of the different needs and learning styles of students. There is also much emphasis on Islamic values, teachings and understandings that will be taught and embedded within our everyday subjects. This is because Islam is connected to our everyday lives and should be highlighted. I also emphasize the importance of maintaining a positive learning environment by ensuring that the students feel safe and comfortable. Our classroom should be seen and experienced as a community to help build each other up with hard work, care and respect. Students must understand they are a part of the Muslim Ummah and should be positive role models. Also, parents this means you also have a major role in your child’s education. I hope to see each parent’s positive involvement in their child’s work and behaviour.
Jazakallah and I look forward to working together!
