One of my aphorisms is that pouring out ideas is better for creativity than doling them out with a teaspoon.

To show my thanks for educators and librarians, and to help improve kids’ book access, here’s a #KidsNeedBooks giveaway.

EDUCATORS & LIBRARIANS: RT/follow to enter to win these books.

I hope the winner gives some of these to Ss to keep, while adding the rest to their library.

It’s important to remember our students’ behaviors often are a form of #communication.

And sometimes these behaviors test us & push us to our limits.

Be patient & remain calm. Try to see what’s beneath the behavior to understand the cause.

No student wants to have a bad day.

40cm (16") of snow in Black Diamond, AB so far and it's still...coming...down...❄️😳 it was a great day for staying inside and reading books. These two yearlings passed by with their mom. #abstorm #Snowtember #fsd38
