@heartless_pe Add in the guilt as a parent who isn't the one to stay home with a sick kid on the morning wakeup because I would have sub plans to make, and my partner doesn't.

@ARadicalTeacher @JayWamsted I'll let you know how the rest of the week goes. Our calendar had a PD day today after Halloween. But now we go back for 3 days, then a week off for Fall Break. What are my gr 8 class numbers going to be like?

[Janis Irwin @JanisIrwin]

This is Ben.

Ben is a social worker. Ben, like so many Albertans lately, was tired of sitting on the sidelines. So he came out to knock doors with us today in McCauley.

Fun fact, Ben also played for the Edmonton Oilers.

Thanks for joining us, Ben! Let’s do it again soon.

💙🧡

This would make for a great student project. Would love to see their idea of what should be covered by "mainstream".

[Christine McDonald @cfkmcd]

@DrAGrace_cyhtt @magnattina It was so good!! Thank you to all for sharing your stories and spending the time to be with us.

[Christine McDonald @cfkmcd]

@LouannNeel1 This is a lovely way to acknowledge and honour the lives both lost and affected.

There will be a live stream of Ben’s Celebration of Life on Friday at 11:30am MST at https://t.co/fL1u8hG7lv

ATA Summer Conference had time for the UCP candidates to share their thoughts on their relationship status with teachers, curriculum, and AIMCO.

📢UCP Memberships can still be purchased until Aug 12 to have your vote count in the leadership election.

The world lost the most special boy and an absolute hero last night. Ben, you were the best son we could ever hope for and you were my best bud ever. Your sisters were so lucky to have you as such a sweet brother. You fought so long and hard and beat so many odds.

How many teachers does it take to do a subtraction problem?

One, because it only takes one teacher to make a difference.

[Christine McDonald @cfkmcd]

So many very valid points made!! Please read her thread.

[Councillor Erin Stevenson @ErinStevensonSG]

I’m angry. And profoundly disappointed with Advanced Education Minister @demetriosnAB and his handling of the @AthabascaU situation. Why? Let me lay this out for you. #AthabascaU

The world’s most popular browser:

Google Chrome

But most of us aren't using it to its full potential.

Here are 10 simple Chrome tips that will blow your mind:

[Christine McDonald @cfkmcd]

@PatriciaLanter @TessaRDavis I agree that students should definitely apply the "less is more" and learn how to KNOW their material as they present it. Using slides as a teaching resource though, absent students would miss a lot more with just the main talking point. Kudos to your kid!

[Christine McDonald @cfkmcd]

@TessaRDavis Cartoons help to hook.
Their notes templates are designed to help scaffold main points whether they are using a blank page or a created template, the bullet points REALLY help.
It would be the longest slides print out ever, to limit to one idea per slide.
30pt = title slide only

[Christine McDonald @cfkmcd]

@TessaRDavis False. Try that with my grade 8 science classes.

I love your content but this is way too broad of a suggestion list without addressing the audience factor.
