Common Threads
Common Threads is the name of the Ontario Secondary School Teachers’ Federation (OSSTF) International Solidarity Program.
In collaboration with an international partner, the Common Threads team travels overseas and conducts research on a critical current topic.
Upon returning, the team designs comprehensive “classroom ready” lesson plans in accordance with the Ontario Ministry of Education curriculum. Each project includes a program video, CD-ROM and supporting assessment rubrics. Course expectations are also included in the material, making it easier to select the appropriate courses.
