We have to abandon the idea that children have to become "normal" in order to contribute to the world.

Follow up to my last tweet, I am curious about what other educators bring to the classroom for children to express their life experiences rather it is books or through writing. #BECEUNB

Children reading and writing about what they know and what they have been through may be one way of creating beautiful pieces of Literacy work.#BECEUNB

A 7: you have deepened my thinking about how I can help change the world along side indigenous people. #shelfietalk

[Nicole Craft @NicoleC29909683]

A 6: 7. Read books by indigenous authors to my children. #shelfietalk

[Nicole Craft @NicoleC29909683]

A 5:steps taken where I work would be we are all learning how we can bring knowledge about indigenous culture into our classrooms. Also all my co-workers want to read this book to become more knowledgeable. #shelfietalk

A4:professionally,I believe that every child in Canada should know the true about their history. Page.151
Personally. Every family member should know where their child is buried. Page154

A 3: this book has broadened my understanding by now realizing how much forgiveness and healing needs to happen before we can move forward.everyone needs to come together to make it work. #shelfietalk

A 2: what resonated with me with this book would be how long things got pushed under the rug with Residential schools, when the first report was made in 1907. How and why would did it take so long for something to be done?#shelfietalk

A 1:
Eye opening, chilling truth of what really happened in canadian history. Helps with understanding the Indian Act in great detail.#shelfietalk

This is how I would like children to feel when reading books and also when they are writing. #BECEUNB

@ ERobbPrincipal RT @LRobbTeacher: Great argument for volume in reading! @ERobbPrincipal

[Nicole Craft @NicoleC29909683]

I have been thinking a lot today about freewriting for children. What if freewriting was more of an option for children, I wonder if this would lead to children wanting to write more? I believe it would, what do others think? #BECEUNB

[Nicole Craft @NicoleC29909683]

Wow. This is a real thought for the day. One shoe doesn't fit all students the same. Same as teaching students in the same way doesn't work for all students. #BECEUNB

Here a thought for the day to ponder. First posted it 3 years ago.

Really enjoying reading this book. So much information. Was reading and Charlotte decided she wanted to read it with me. She picked out the words she knew and sounded out the words that she had trouble with. #BECEUNB

One of the many strategies I believe can form a wonderful writer. I would love to hear from other teachers what other strategies do you use as you teach children to be come writers? #BECEUNB

[Nicole Craft @NicoleC29909683]

I would like to share with you all "The Frog Story)by a three year old i work with. It was about a family of frogs swimming to their teacher. My young writer in the making. So proud the way this child told me this story.#BECEUNB
