Hi from Montreal!

Hello All!

I’m very glad to be taking this course with you all. I am currently teaching Integrated Arts in an elementary school, here in Montreal. Unfortunately, I do not have access to much technology, my computer is not even up and running in my classroom yet, oh the joys! The students can be tough, but I like the challenge. I’m enjoying it, but it is exhausting! This is my final course on my journey through the MET program. I am excited to be finishing up, and promised myself I would make the trek to Vancouver to pick up my diploma (hopefully all goes well!).

I look forward to working and learning alongside you!

Milena 🙂

    Milena,
    Congrats on almost being done! I know it can be tough to get technology, at my old school teaching math I found it could be very difficult. Looking forward to getting to know you!

    Congrats! It is well deserved. I am sure that looking back at the end of this term you will have a lot of very fond memories! Best of luck at the end of your MET journey!

    Hi Melena,

    I know how frustrating it can be to be in the dark ages in your class even though you are interested and capable with technology. Fingers crossed that you get it set up soon! -Amber

    Hi Milena: Happy to be working with you again. I think we were in 520 together last term. I’m pretty jealous of your being at the end. Do you have to wait until next spring to cross the stage? I’m sure you won’t be waiting that long to celebrate!!! Congrats, Diane

  6. Hello from just a short skip north, Milena! Over the summer I moved from BC to la Belle Province – well, the OTHER belle province, anyways 😉 Are you a native Quebeccer?

    Thank you all for the thoughtful comments, it does feel great having reached the end, an accomplishment for sure! You are all on your way!!!

    Hi M-A,
    Integrated arts is a mix of different subjects. I’ve been given quite a bit of freedom. I teach movement (dance/yoga), creative arts (drawing/painting) and drama. The students enjoy the variety!

    Hello Nicola!
    Where are you situated exactly?
    I am a native Quebecer. Born and raised in Montreal. Are you originally from BC?

    Hi Brendan,
    Intergrated Arts are a mix of different ‘arts’…I’m teaching a bit of everything, movement (dance/yoga), creative arts (drawing/painting) and drama.

  12. milenab says:

    I think we did! Nice to ‘see’ you again!
    I do have to wait until next spring, but yes celebrations will start way before that 😛

    It is quite frustrating, especially when you are used to working with technology in the classroom and then suddenly you have none! Thanks Amber.
