@johngreen I have two students working on a podcast about “Looking For Alaska.” They have some questions they’d like to ask you about the way in which the novel portrays coming of age, and how the novel came to be. Do you have any wisdom to bestow?
Our team recently met with students authors and illustrator Joanna Jackson, Olivia Jordan, and Claire Malco from @HVHS_NB to learn about their #ClimateAction book, Keeping It Cool. With the goal of having their book published and available in schools, we are so impressed with the #ClimateAction these students are taking through art and literature!

One year ago I was preparing for my @StThomasU#stubed2022 classes, and today I’m a D contract teacher! I feel so fortunate to have the opportunity to teach English at my alma mater this school year. 🤍
@thecaitdiaries Our cat usually cries when In the car. I went to our vet at Kannon Animal Hospital and she gave us a medication for Marv to take when we drive! It worked wonders during our move to London ON, but is also great for the SJ - Fred drive as well!
These people; this program.
I am so honoured to have pursued education @StThomasU and to be a part of this phenomenal cohort of educators.
Passion, collegiality, and support from an exceptional faculty is what drives the STU B.Ed.
