Classroom Resources & Activities

June 6th is etched in our memory. As we remember Our London Family, we are mindful of the grief this brings to each of our hearts but also the need for ongoing action and healing. I encourage educators to remind all students of classroom guidelines before starting these conversations while also recognizing this time can be especially difficult for Muslim students, families and staff.

Hold space for students to express themselves and provide opportunities for students to engage in different ways.

Ways to engage:

  • Consider holding a moment of silence in your classroom or school to honor Our London Family.
  • Organize a school-wide walk-in memory of “Our London Family” as a time to reflect, honour and bring attention to the issue of Islamophobia in our communities.
  • Wear purple and/or green
  • Create space for classroom learning, check out the ideas below.

Community Resources

As a community we need to continue to learn more on how we can disrupt Islamophobia and hate in our City. There are many community organizations  and resources available to Londoners who are interested in learning more about how we can be a more welcoming and inclusive City.
