Thanks for the memories, JSN. After (fabulous) 4 years, time for a change in September 2024! Until then, have a great summer ☀️😎

How I’m spending the month of July #summer2024 🇳🇱🔸🚲☀️ 📍The Netherlands

‘Lexend Font’ is my favourite (and my default on Google!) - it was created to help minimize visual stress for those with dyslexia, however many other readers also benefit from the font! fonts.google.com/specimen/Lexen…

Back to school tradition🍦☀️ started this as a kid and have kept it going every year since! Wishing everyone a happy #ocsbFirstDay tomorrow 😎

Every behaviour is a form of communication. We need to look beneath it and seek to understand what is driving it.This behaviour does not occur in a vacuum. 🧠🌱

Data collecting is often seen as “another thing to do”, but data driven instruction and interventions help align priorities and make sure we are responding appropriately! When priorities are aligned, we can make sure that everyone involved is working on target 🎯

Thankful to start off this Thanksgiving Weekend with Christian Community Day! #ocsbCCDay #ocsbBeCommunity Stephanie Lucas Mrs. Gagnon

After Friday’s amazing key note speaker, @dr_robynehd, it shouldn’t be a surprise that I chose this book as my next read! Anyone else starting this book?! 📕 Ottawa Catholic School Board #ocsbCCDay

Friday reminder 💕 (Ps Mrs Figura always has cute reminders or jokes on her, the perfect little pick me up when you walk by) #ocsbBeWell
