As we embrace this school year, we’ve been focusing on our EF’s at home. We are learning to be flexible, as our expectations are very different from our new realities. This little 4 yo is really starting to grasp the idea of how to go with the flow! @BarrowsBatch @LCFaith

Soon I'll be looking for #ActivatedLearning teachers to interview for an upcoming research project. To qualify, you'll need a daily BSP practise and you can't be a trainer. I'm so excited to reach out and chat with you. In the meantime, I hope you'll keep learning and growing!!

We’re starting to pull together, people. What if every educator at every level could see and support the whole learner?!? #ActivatedLearning

[Laurie Faith, PhD @LCFaith]

We can do hard things. We can manage change. We've got this!! #ActivatedLearning

[Janet Rhude @janjanrhude]

Today Grade 4s presented their amazing understanding of #activatedlearning executive functions with a poster or a slide (I’m just that flexible).

@FenelonTownship @LCFaith great job, Tigers! 🐯Well done on the BSP: “What is hard about carving the perfect Jack-O-Lantern?” 🎃 Enjoy these pumpkins for your class. Next up: share a BSP about a specific math task, share, post and win 😄prizes for your class!

Take a look at this, #ActivatedLearning teachers. It’s a model of the performance system in a classroom. Read below, the a, b, and c... pathways and consider how your efforts flow through and power this system.

Playing cars with my 7yr old and he says “I’ll get my emotional control car” (he meant remote control) 😂😂😂 🚗 ❤️ 🧠 Well done @BarrowsBatch @LCFaith #activatedlearning @ActivatedTLDSB

[Activated TLDSB @ActivatedTLDSB]

@HollyEarp25 @ActivatedTLDSB @BarrowsBatch @LCFaith I had a wonderful group of #EF cheerleads to help @BarrowsBatch label their EFs. My kiddos liked seeing our younger friends coming up with so many great strategies! “Oh ya! We remember using that strategy!” @LCFaith #activatedlearning

[Holly Earp @HollyEarp25]

@BarrowsBatch @LCFaith Ss are diggin’ deep into EFs every day in gr.4/5. Explicit/timely/intentional/embedded. 🥊 #ChallengeAccepted @BarrowsBatch and we only scratched the surface! Tag - You’re it @MsStaples1 Who’s next??? @LCFaith

[Laurie Faith, PhD @LCFaith]

The metacognition pumping, enough great cognitive strategies to last all day, and motivation out the yin yang. Love this format, Meg. So proud of those powerful kiddos!! #ActivatedLearning

@MsClements_ @LCFaith @ActivatedTLDSB Amazing thinking! 💭 🧠 💪🏽

[Laurie Faith, PhD @LCFaith]

When educators from Canada open their arms in welcome to colleagues from the UK, that stuff hurts my heart in a good way. Life is good. People are good. We can do hard things TOGETHER. #ActivatedLearning

[Paula Barrow @BarrowsBatch]

It’s very enlightening to really LISTEN to what Ss THINK their barriers to learning are, and to discover they are not alone. There are so many EFs at play here, but we are not yet ready to notice and name all of them. Result of 2 day’s worth of convo and student voice: @LCFaith

[Ms. Clements @MsClements_]

When your heart sings because your grade 4's talk BSPs in the morning and don't even wait until tomorrow's Literacy period to act on them! Recognizing that these strategies have a place in all areas of our day... EVEN AT home! @LCFaith @ActivatedTLDSB #TLDSBlearns

[Janet Rhude @janjanrhude]

Grade 4s used #activatedlearning and came up with lots of barriers and strategies for staying distanced at recess. It’s a start, but it’s so challenging for everyone!

[Ms. McNab's 6’s @TeamMcNab]

Hey @LCFaith - these @TLDSB @syps_powpack rockstars worked on Sustained Attention during Science-One boy mentioned how he enjoyed the work because it was all organized. 👍

[King Albert Team 4/5 @KAPSgrade3_4]

We were having difficulty being safe with sticks at recess time. During a whole-class Plan B conversation, we developed strategies to keep each other safe. @KingAlbertPS @LITB_ #knightscode
