Our Land Acknowledgement shows recognition of and respect for Indigenous peoples from the past and the present. We acknowledge that the property of Richland Academy is situated upon traditional territories of the Anishinabek, the Haudenosaunee Confederacy, Mississaugas of the Credit, Mississauga and the Wendat peoples.
Recognizing this land is an expression of gratitude and appreciation to those whose territory you reside on, and a way of honouring the Indigenous people who have been living and working on the land from time immemorial.
Our students reach a critical level of fluency and have most of the vocabulary necessary to communicate with relative ease, confidence, and with complete thought in all classroom interactions. As teachers we continue to work with gestures to solidify and increase vocabulary and refinements of language skills (grammar and spelling concepts). Teacher-Led Self-Expression (TLSE) continues to be used extensively.
