Lots of people saying they've no words. You have to find the words. Silence is not an option. We’ve had years of silence. Demand more from yourself, from your community, from this country, from leadership. We need words, and we need action. Every child matters.

Did NOT mean to anger Saskatchewan. Bunny Hug recommendations too!

By retweeting this, I accept the challenge to remember outdoor spaces I loved in my childhood. Every day, I will refrain from posting about them 😉 No explanation to others - just self-reflection. 7 days, 7 memories, 0 nominations 👏 (I could also win a TMO 👕 by doing this!)

@AlgeraRay Congratulations Danielle!

When students I’m working with are challenged, e.g, how to write a CRAFTED essay that ISN’T formulaic - I ask them “Should schoolwork be easy or hard?” Their answers are usually about grades. “What if you know you won’t lose marks if you make mistakes?” Everything changes.

[Meagan Mutchmor @MutchmorMath]

@sykor11 Being clear with learners about what is to be learned. When I go into classrooms I like to ask “What are you learning?” Then listen carefully, too often the answer is what they are “doing” until recess. We need to bring learning to the centre. Try W.A.L.T. (We are learning to...)

[Meagan Mutchmor @MutchmorMath]

Let’s change the question from “What did you DO in school today?” To “What did you LEARN?”

[Syd Korsunsky @sykor11]

@FletcherRalph Ralph - you inspired me to do exactly that - happening in more than a dozen classrooms where I Mentor. Authentic Audience and real Purpose precede form.

@FortWhyteAlive @takemeoutside Students enjoyed an “Arctic Experience” fieldtrip learning about Inuit lifestyle & culture, ecosystems, foodchains and how we can help offer hopeful solutions for the health of the poles. #takemeoutside2019 #calvinchristiancollegiate

Another pearl from a student I wish I had said: when I asked him how he came to write so well he replied: “I write what I would want to read.”

This article needs to be read, thought about, & discussed in so many of our schools. @alfiekohn @pennykittle

[Dori Reddig @DoriReddig]

@universal_sci This is super helpful!

[ILA @ILAToday]

Author Kate DiCamillo brilliantly explains the power of being read to. It’s not just for kids, but for all of us throughout our lives, and we couldn’t agree more: https://t.co/oKl0bMMBuO

Humans are hardwired to forget. But research shows that strategies like peer-to-peer explanations, regular review, and interleaving can boost retention.

The #SuccessStories and excitement about #TheQuickwriteHandbook motivated me to get a copy! I'm so excited to jumpstart my students' thinking and writing as we begin our journey with these 100 #mentortexts! Thank you, @LindaMRief! @HeinemannPub
