Never having to worry that your children will be the victim of a hate crime is a privilege.

Some ideas for finding #math all around us - outdoor learning, outdoor education, etc. A short two-minute video that can support meaningful experiences for students. Math is found in more than a textbook

With everything going on right now, it’s a difficult time for youth and young adults. It’s important for them to know that there are services available for them to support their mental health. Togetherall is an online peer-to-peer community for anyone aged 16-29 in Nova Scotia.

This quick reference for #chromebooks may come in handy to students and teachers @RockyElementary ! If you notice anything that doesn't work, let me know and I can do a revised version! Thanks to Evan Mosier for its design and creation! #onlinelearning #COVID19NS #TheFutureofNS
