We are excited to continue our learning in the fall! We welcome all suggestions for topics or areas to explore collaboratively. Let us know what you would like to learn more about! #2021IGNITEd

As teachers, many of us are pragmatic. We want a place to begin, and a direction to move in. @arachnemom spoke to the following as ways of getting started. And as @HKhodai noted, we begin daily with the idea of belonging. #2021IGNITEd #HonourEachOthersTruths

When we bring intentionality to the decisions we make about ALL aspects of our practice, we shine light on disparities, and take steps toward becoming more inclusive. These questions really resonate. #2021IGNITEd #LearnWithHema

We dove right into the unlearning, and relearning, as @HKhodai led us through Learning for Justice: Ending Curriculum Violence.

The article is linked here. What word, sentence, or phrase has a jarring impact on you? Is this still happening?

Where do we begin? We begin daily. What does equity look like? It looks like inclusion. @HKhodai #2021IGNITEd

The (detrimental) power of that tiny word... "but."

When we are validating one's feelings, a small adjustment from BUT to BECAUSE can have a huge impact in calming the brain. #2021IGNITEd

[Manitoulin IGNITEd @ManIGNITEd]

Wonderful to learn about Grief and Loss alongside this wonderful group #2021IGNITEd. Concrete strategies.
