A Bit About Me
As of September 25, I have started as the new District Math/Science Program Consultant. I’m really looking forward to working with teachers from K-12 (and adult educators) across Burnaby.
For those of you who don’t know me, I’ve been a science and math teacher in Burnaby for 27 years. I’ve worked at 3 (and a bit) secondary schools, teaching math from 8-11 and science (from 8-12). I’ve spent the last 3 years as a Faculty Associate at SFU, supporting student teachers from K-12. I’ve got a great admiration for primary teachers (particularly K). Besides my strong interests in math and science, I am passionate about assessment and inquiry. I also consider myself an environmentalist and a social justice advocate.
If you would like to collaborate on your math or science program, or are looking for some tips and resources, feel free to e-mail me (donna.morgan@sd41.bc.ca) or call at 604-760-6157. Or you can follow me on Twitter @donnamorgan8.
Looking for Something To Do on October 20?
If you weren’t able to apply for detached duty or are looking for something other than the Superconference (which is where you can find me on Oct 20), here are a list of things you can do in math and science on our Provincial Professional Development Day:
BC Association of Math Teachers
Vandusen Garden Inspiring Environmental Awareness
Copper Mountain (Near Princeton—day trip from the Lower Mainland)
