As the school year begins, just a little reminder!

🪴🪴 Studies show that having plants in the classroom comes with a host of benefits for the environment—and for learners! 🪴🪴

If classrooms embraced the cyclic process artists use to create new work—beginning with an idea, finding a way to express that idea, and then presenting the finished product to an audience—more real learning can flourish.

Adults can reframe children’s challenging behavior in a way that strengthens their relationship.

The pandemic has weighed heavily on the mental well-being of youth. But how much can be done to address it? As Marney Blunt reports, one Windsor Park Collegiate educator is looking into it through her masters research.

We have a bit of fun outside today with an activity geared to asking, “what can we let go of in order to move forward?”. It’s wasn’t competitive at all! #we_are_royal

Had an amazing learning experience hosting and participating in @louis_riel_sd Beyond the Horizon Youth Summit. It was great to celebrate and reflect on our #studentvoice

One of the many great things about being a grade 7/8 student @wpcLRSD - a grade 8 student ambassador working directly with high school students to promote the upcoming LRSD youth summit and presenting to the entire school in a virtual assembly!

After completing a close reading of the 309 pages that make up Bill 64: The Education Modernization Act - here’s where I am at ... as a teacher I am very frustrated, as a Principal I am beyond concerned, as a parent of two children in public school - I am simply outraged.

Another insightful piece in today’s WFP by John Wiens. “Parent involvement in their children’s education is essential, but its best form is interest in and knowledge about how they are doing, assistance where needed, and unwavering encouragement and support.”
