Had to move some mountains but the cherry on top of a great summer is heading to @thechicks at @GorgeAmphitheat with my sister! This is the kind of #biggirlenergy to start off another teaching year! #renettacalmdown

@TorontoPearson what’s the average time spent on hold? I’m sitting at 20 minutes. You’ve got a big line of disgruntled people and no staff around to advise. That is probably why they keep asking the only staff they can find-the cranky security guard. We are at Gate B20.

[rpeddle @RenettaPeddle]

@TorontoPearson Ok, that’s perfect!

[rpeddle @RenettaPeddle]

@TorontoPearson someone should be communicating when we access connecting flights from Gates B17-B19. Your security guard isn’t handling questions well.

[rpeddle @RenettaPeddle]

This kind of feedback will be my next PTI goal!

Bloody hell. Looking at a message from the Ukraine Library Association concerning the cancellation of their forthcoming conference. it basically says "We will reschedule just as soon as we have finished vanquishing our invaders". Ukrainian Librarians, I salute you

I drove by @JanisIrwin today, my emphatic double-thumbs up were a bit over the top. My daughter was initially horrified by me but the best news? She said at bedtime, “I read up on her. She’s my new hero.” I am no longer the cringey mom!!!

This is how I feel about reading sad books in English class this year! Hell no!

[Glennon Doyle @GlennonDoyle]

Oh hell no we are NOT doing the song about the dying mom who needs Christmas shoes we are all quite sad enough it's 2021 for Christ sake

@ShenandoahRJ I missed my niece working her annual “community service”. 😭

My school year always starts with creating a bulletin board to set direction for September. My daughter and I found common ground in #Hamilton and it made perfect sense for this year!Thanks @Lin_Manuel !!#BacktoSchool2021 #teacherlife #not9to5

In a recent APSI, a participant said she wants to be intentional about including texts centered on joy during the upcoming year. Here’s the start of a crowd sourced list of joy-filled texts. The doc is open so feel free to add and spread the joy. https://t.co/1w5ecVt6bG

Re: @AdrianaLaGrange article in Calgary Herald (https://t.co/7LllP8VsB8)

Her claims "After years of declining student performance..." is FALSE.

In 2015, Alberta ranked 1,2,3 in Canada for SC, LA, MA. In 2018, we rank 1,1,3 in SC, LA, MA.

A retraction is in order. #ableg

Here's Premier Kenney explaining why teachers haven't been prioritized for vaccines at this time.

[Jonathan Teghtmeyer 🇺🇦 @atypicalalbertn]

Jason Kenney is misleading about the national immunization recommendations. NACI recommends the prioritization of all front line workers, including education workers. #abed #ableg

Most students with disabilities do not need lower expectations for any skill; they need support, time, and sometimes intervention. But let's keep the bar high! #LeadInclusion #Globalsped #edchat

That’s some good work right there! WTG Mr. K. and all the construction students!! @forthighschool

“Building these beds with my class made me realize how fortunate I am. Many families just don’t have enough money to afford basic needs. I’m grateful we get a chance to help make a difference for these kids.”
