The teachers and staff at TMSD believe that literacy empowers students to be active and informed citizens. Through meeting the Manitoba curriculum outcomes, we strive to develop students' language skills across various domains:
Language as power and agency
Language as sense-making
Language as exploration and design
Language as system
We believe that ongoing formative assessment using data-driven and research based information allows for comprehensive teaching of skills and early intervention when necessary. Additionally, ongoing collaboration and Professional Development are essential for our growth as educators. They enable us to adapt to changing demands, share innovative ideas, and support one another in problem-solving as we strive to meet the needs of all students.
