FI teacher, I’m about continuous learning, family, books (talking about books!), podcasts, dogs, walking with dogs, and learning from Indigenous writers.

@jshoja Hope you have a wonderful return to work! It’s never easy to go back after a leave (and especially harder when you have a little one in daycare) ❤️

@heymrsbond This video from Anita Archer is one my favorites on this topic. (It's about 1:40 into the video and looks like this.) https://t.co/a4uYBsw7m4

@AsilentPAO I am sad to hear that this is still happening. In 1993, I had to keep quiet about my pregnancy for a number of months so my new army unit wouldn’t cancelled my posting. Dual mil spouse at the time. In your case, I wonder what their motivation was?

@nilikm @CBCNews @CTVNews @OttawaCitizen I can’t even imagine what it is like to receive such a message. My heart hurts. I am so sorry. Please take care of yourself. What is this world coming (back) to? We need to put a stop to this. @OttawaPolice get involved. #Antisemitism

@jessyroos You are 100 percent right that the funding and support needs to address the root problems. People are suffering.

Parent: My child has been failing your class all year. What do I need to do to support him?

Teacher: Not waiting until November to contact me would be a good start.

Feel free to copy the format below if you are reaching out to coaches, instead of saying "Sup Coach". Treat it like an interview and give us the info to be able to recruit you. You wouldn't just write only your name on a job application. Show you care. #Effort #Care #Recruiting

@Mikeggibbs Spent a lot of time in a hospital with my 92-year old mom this week and for once lately I didn’t stand out by wearing a mask. I work in education and I’m definitely in a small group of the masked at my workplace. I worry a lot about bring COVID home to my mom.

[Eileen @Leener111]

This book opened has had a profound effect on me and my 92-year old mom. It is heartbreaking and yet hopeful. Thank you for sharing it with us.

In this Brandon Sun story about Valley of the Birdtail, the book gets a thumbs up from the Chief of Waywayseecappo AND the mayor of Rossburn, the two solitudes of our story, which is the kind of thing we could only dream about as we wrote https://t.co/ov3YHLLkIS @HarperCollinsCa

[Eileen @Leener111]

Agree wholeheartedly!

[Tyler Rablin @Mr_Rablin]

I am genuinely concerned that, while we can get so many good ideas from Twitter, constantly scrolling through the incredible things other teachers are posting can create a sense of inadequacy or feeling that we need to do more to keep up.

Comparison is the thief of joy...

As far as I’m concerned, you just made another book sale. I’m ordering it as soon as I can find it! Peace.

[Eileen @Leener111]

Cutting the paperwork and red tape in this currently inefficient and burn-out causing health care system and addressing the needs of our most vulnerable people from the get-go benefits all. Thank you for posting.
