Mr. Ho's teaching practice is always current, research-backed, and effective. He employs a range of high-impact instructional practices to meet the diverse learning needs of all students in his Math Fusion classroom. He also incorporates coding activities, game-based learning opportunities, and project-based learning & assessment into the math courses he teaches, providing his students with opportunities for inclusive, interdisciplinary, and equitable learning.
Examples of high-impact instructional practices that Mr. Ho uses in his classroom are as follows:
Use of learning goals and success criteria
Timely, meaningful, and descriptive feedback
Direct instruction
Student-centred learning
Group learning
Technology-based learning (e.g., Desmos, Google Forms, Google Sheets, etc.)
Problem-based learning (i.e., real-world problems)
Game-based learning
Inquiry-based learning
Kinesthetic learning
In addition, Mr. Ho collaborates with his colleagues (e.g., the ACL of Student Success and Numeracy, the ACL of Student Success and Literacy, the LP's librarian, and other Math teachers) to develop Indigenous Math activities for LPCI Math students to work on. He also works with the Student Success team at LPCI to support students with numeracy.
Math Department Photos
Mr. Ho also works harmoniously with the team of excellent Math teachers at LPCI. Here are the photos of the team members in the Math department at LPCI for semester 1:
Teachers with 25 Years of Service at TDSB
The Math department at LP has two Math teachers who have served in TDSB for over 25 years. They are Ursula McDonnell and Jessica Cherny Halford, and they both received a 25-year-of-service pin from TDSB for their dedicated hard work.
Ursula McDonnell received a 25-year-of-service pin from TDSB in November 2023.
Jessica Cherny Halford received a 25-year-of-service pin from TDSB in February 2024.
Data Wall
Here is the photo carousel of the math department's data wall showcasing the evidence of the department's improvements in areas such as equity, achievement, well-being, and Indigenous education from month to month in the 2023-24 school year:
Math Department's Display Case
The Math department's display case outside the Math office (room 320) features the MCR3U1 student sample work on Desmos' Indigenous activities on the myths of the stars and constellations in the northern skies of Canada.
