(2/2) We thank @sergecormierlib for proposing this important bill and every MP who voted in favour of this bill! We are happy to see the growing support amongst parliamentarians for the federal government's involvement in school food. Read the bill ⬇️ parl.ca/DocumentViewer…

Practice being gender expansive, not gender limiting 😃
Looking for a more inclusive way to address your class than “ladies and gentlemen”? A middle school teacher offers tips on ways to make your classroom safe and affirming for students on any part of the gender spectrum. 💗
Thanks for this reminder and your beautiful school leadership @Ms_St_Aubyn Have you heard this song by Jon Brooks - about the tragic treatment of Sgt Tommy Prince upon his return to Canada? Lest we forget. #Indigenousveteransday jonbrooks.ca/track/1089086/…

Sgt Tommy Prince
On the announcements today I told the story of the heroic Tommy Prince and all he did for the war effort despite what it cost him personally. I honour him & other Indigenous veterans. I am grateful for their service. Lest we forget. #IndigenousVeteransDay veterans.gc.ca/eng/remembranc…
This is a smart way to practice self-reflection
Before they leave class, T @grahnforlang's learners have to identify how they've grown that day! Do you have any exit ticket activities you love?
I’m learning to de-center the values, practices, and rules of White-dominant institutions. The tough part is learning what to replace those mindsets with. I’m happy to have access to this collection.
A few months in the making... & now finally ready: The Anti-Colonial Research Library hosts 400+ open-access articles and books, websites, YouTube videos on practical examples of Indigenous and anti-colonial research methodologies. Use and share widely! anticolonialresearchlibrary.org
Thanks @farwell_WR @millsphilipd @HabitatWR What housing looks and sounds like in our minds, impacts housing policy. Can the phrase “our house” refer to all forms of housing, in collective vernacular? Or, will the reference to “our apartment” become an equally respected norm?
This week's housing segment on @CityNewsKIT with @farwell_WR and CEO @millsphilipd gave us a different view of the backyard 🏡 Heres a bit of the conversation. Thanks again @farwell_WR for the time and opportunity 📻🙌📻
I’m going to tell 2 different people about this retention research, review it (retrieving it from my likes) and think about interleaving - maybe connecting it to a different context
The process of forgetting starts as soon as learning finishes. Here are 5 research-backed strategies you can use when you need to make something stick. 🧠
Executive function and self awareness in learning matter. Watch faces and body language in this video. Schools could undertake their own action research to intentionally build selected meta cognitive practices. Board-level Program department support would be helpful to success.
Executive function remains one of the most reliable predictors of success in academics—and in life. Here's the research on what it is, and how to cultivate it. ✈️
Make your own font style! What a fun idea!
I LOVE lettering. It’s one of my favorite things to do, and is one of the reasons why I make all my own fonts for my books. A few years ago I drew up these intro to lettering sheets to help kids start exploring it all. You can download them at the Activities page of my website.
