Have you ever dissected an owl pellet? We did! Now the grade 7 students @BishopMacTCDSB get to piece the bones together and identify the animals that the owls ate!

Such a sad day. 4 years ago @MicrosoftEduCA and @FCLEdu gifted me with a surface computer to use in my classroom. Today it died due to an unfortunate tuna juice leak incident. I feel lost without it! #SurfacePro8 was the best tool for teachers to use!!!

Create build and play doesn’t only happen in primary grades. We are introducing play into the intermediate division and the response is overwhelming! Kids love to play at any age and it’s such a great way for them to engage with each other. @BishopMacTCDSB

@bpcaverhill @khanacademy @knowledgehook I’d like to add @mathspace to this! I like your program but how can I justify paying for something when @khanacademy is similar and free!?

[Rachelle Mills (she/her) @chellymil]

@GLewisOCT @MrTeacherG @tottenmath @bpcaverhill I am venturing into 7/8 for the first time and I got so much information from your talk today! I’m going to have to watch it again! Thanks so much! It was amazing!

[Rachelle Mills (she/her) @chellymil]

@VBarbosaKaoudji Omg you have the BEST AT!!!

[Rachelle Mills (she/her) @chellymil]

@hicknell @TG2Chat @ONeducation @bpcaverhill Yes! I agree! I love when students contribute their own report cards! I was just wondering if there are other creative work arounds

[Rachelle Mills (she/her) @chellymil]

@TG2Chat #gradeless I need some inspiration. How do I get around giving grades on the report card? I don’t want to emphasize a gradeless class, then give a grade. But I have to give a grade according to @ONeducation. What have others done? #help @bpcaverhill

[Rachelle Mills (she/her) @chellymil]

@mrm1mr @ddmeyer I really liked his comparison of mistakes and love. It’s all about perspective

[Rachelle Mills (she/her) @chellymil]

Thanks for listening."
