To all those who call the UAE home and guests in our beloved nation.
The UAE places its security and the protection of all citizens, residents, and visitors at the very top of its priorities. With Godโs grace, the UAE is fully prepared to confront these threats.
I extend my deepest appreciation to our brave armed forces, our committed security services, and all national institutions and teams working tirelessly to keep our country safe. They represent the highest standards of readiness and cooperation. We are truly proud of them.
I would also like to underscore my sincere gratitude for the awareness shown by our community of Emiratis and our resident brothers and sisters, partners in this nation, who have expressed their genuine love and loyalty to the UAE through both words and actions. In the UAE, everyone is Emirati through their love for this land and their contributions to it.
May God have mercy on the victims and grant the injured a speedy recovery. With Godโs blessing, the UAEโthe land of Zayedโwill remain strong in its unity, steadfast in defending its sovereignty, and steadily advancing towards the future.
๐ What happens when students lead their learning?
Instead of explaining, I asked:โจ๐ถ โWhat do you notice?โโจ๐ก โCan you repeat it?โ
The result? Critical #thinking & true #inquiry!

At GIS, our students shine in musical concerts that showcase transdisciplinary learning. Through rhythm, melody & storytelling, they bring concepts to life with creativity & collaboration!

It got me thinking: If we ranked the #PYP #concepts based on our subject, what would that look like?
โWould some concepts be more dominant in stand-alone units vs. integrated ones?
โWhich concepts naturally rise to the top in your subject?

Mental health is not about being happy all the time. It's about learning to handle the full range of emotions.
It's normal to feel grief after loss, anger at injustice, and fear in danger.
Resilience lies in putting our feelings in perspective instead of letting them define us.

After six years, I finally met Kirsten in person! We used to work together and have been collaborating online all these years, building an amazing friendship. Meeting her today, in the heart of the desert, was truly special. ๐ช๐ต

This weekend, I attended a transformative 3-day workshop on Evidencing Learning (Category 2). It was an incredible opportunity to dive into the culture of assessment, focusing on the roles of assessment-capable learners and teachers.

What are your thoughts on your classroom culture, and how do you build it?
Just started reading โLeading with a Lens of Inquiryโ by celebrated educator @jess_vanceedu
The first few pages resonate deeply with me. Excited to dive deeper into this insightful book. ๐โจ

๐ง๏ธMumbai has recorded over 300 mm rainfall at various places in a six-hour period from 1 am to 7 am today. Heavy rains in some low-lying areas led to waterlogging and disruption of suburban train services.
๐ซHeavy rain is also expected today. In order to avoid inconvenience to students, a holiday for the first session is declared for all BMC, Government and Private schools and colleges in the Mumbai (BMC area).
The decision for the next session will be announced after reviewing the situation.
