FDK and Outdoors are my passion!!!

Tell me and I'll forget
Teach me and I may remember
Involve me and I learn~unknown

Kids don’t hate learning. Kids hate the intimidation of timed testing environments and the embarrassment of being labelled wrong.

[Brian Aspinall @mraspinall]

That’s a wrap! Thanks to @ETFOelc @scdece for two wicked days of learning! This concludes our second two day “Hacking the Kindergarten Classroom” @codebreakeredu conference!

See you in the Fall 😉🙌🏼

Did you know:
-DECE’s have been told they are an equal part of the Education Team…then why aren’t they treated equally?
-DECE’s don’t get planning time
-DECE’s lead instructional time too
-DECE’s must complete regular Continuous Professional Learning and be registered

IN DEFENCE OF SNOW DAYS

[Kimiko Shibata 🦋 @ESL_fairy]

Dear school administrators:

I see you.

I feel your stress.

I’m sorry that you’ve been placed in this situation, and that the pressure has not let up for the past two years.

You deserve the same love and care that you give to your staff and students.
