When students ask for feedback, they are more likely to use it. They are more likely to ask if there are positive relationships & they feel safe. #VisibleLearning

Taking part in Virtual Visible Learning+ - Feedback That Makes Learning Visible Institute this morning. #visiblelearning

[DJ Spinster @ColetteRae]

My definition for later: Feedback - what went right, how to grow, where to next. #visiblelearning

@TriciaLucyshyn Book study?

[Jo Chrona @luudisk]

So yesterday, I saw this on-line for the first time. It's both exciting and scary. There's a responsibility to others when we talk about Indigenous education, or any educational transformation. I hope this honours that responsibility.

What a great way to spend part of my afternoon with my grade 12s.
And interesting how John’s presentation aligned with so much of what I said in the first half of the afternoon. Someone must have needed those words today. #powerofstory

As part of Indigenous Storytelling Month, John McDonald spoke to classes all day today, sharing his story and his poems.
Thank you to John for spending the day with us.
John's latest book is Kitotam: He Speaks To.

@haroldrjohnson inspired me to use the theme of story for my ELA A30 class & his words got my students to think. He shall be missed.

[Wesmor Public High School @WesmorPHS]

Our condolences to the family & friends of @haroldrjohnson
He was a true friend and inspiration to our school community. We are truly glad he was part of our story.

Settled in to do some planning - sometimes you just have to change things up - and watch some Olympics. #TeacherLife

@Flipgrid Should have finished my coffee before tweeting! A MATCH! 🙄But thanks for understanding me anyway. 🤣

@Flipgrid I love socks, I love @Flipgrid so it seems like a March to me! #edtech #socks

@haroldrjohnson @WesmorPHS Thank you for your words. We are learning about the importance of story & some of us are learning to rewrite our story.

Always love to see my students connecting to what we read!

[Wesmor Public High School @WesmorPHS]

As the ELA A30 class read the book Firewater by @haroldrjohnson they tagged things they reacted to. Here are just a few of their tagged books. So many thoughts! #soberhouse #readers
