Hey GO Transit, Peter at the Whitby Station was great today helping me set-up my friend’s first student Presto card! 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

Here's why we must listen to science — even if its findings are inconvenient or controversial. Watch the full talk here: t.ted.com/5XpA4DY

Prof Deonandan was asked by a student journalist what he would say to the 20% of polled uOttawa students who complain that our campus's vaccine requirements are an "infringement on their rights of free movement." His response:

Decided to bring #TheVindico back this fall as my first read aloud. Why? Because there’s a multitude of entry points. The big question is, “What is a hero?” I hope we find there’s a lot of grey to that answer. (And OMG, C.E. Broughton P.S.’s copy is signed by @WesleyTKing!)

Uttered by a gr 6 today re #TheVindico: “That Hayden, he be thirsty.” 👍🏻 His inference is correct. 🤦🏻‍♀️ And was supported with evidence. @WesleyTKing

Really working on students articulating what they specifically need help with. “I don’t get it,” won’t cut it. In GC today everyone completed this statement, “I’m find it tricky to…”. I’ve now established what three different groupings of students need. #onted #metacognition

If you were looking for a satisfying weekend read, why not flip through the #RFTLOI 2022 programme book. You can then join us in person at the Sheraton Centre Hotel Toronto on Thu Feb 24 & Fri Feb 25. readingfortheloveofit.com/pdf/reading-fo… Because professional development matters! @eysreading

Hey Christine Senior! We’re getting closer to @eysreading. 🤞🏻🤞🏻🍎

Anti-opppressive book club is consistently the best PD I have experienced. Loved hearing from the always superb Juliet Young and author Alicia D Williams. #GenesisBeginsAgain @DDSB_English

Crowd sourcing for a catchy title. I’m looking for a title for our collection of Hi-Lo teen ebooks on Sora. The ebooks will sit under a titled banner for easy access by students. I’m thinking TEEN QUICK READS. It’s not catchy! Anyone have other ideas?

Teachers choosing not to teach authors they find offensive and/or problematic isn’t the same as the state dictating that Black, Brown, and queer folks should be erased from schools and from history. Words mean things.

Just started #WeWereDreamers by Simu Liu for a secondary school teachers’ Anti-Oppression Book Club. Already smiling. Grateful it was recommended. Can’t wait for students to see themselves represented.

Thanks to everyone involved in making this happen…blogto.com/eat_drink/2022…
