When young people lack executive function skills, it can feel like disrespect to an adult. We must remember that we cannot expect adult behaviors from children. They learn life skills in safe spaces filled with grace, examples, and many chances to practice.

"A micro mentor text is a few sentences, a paragraph, or a scene. It is short enough to analyze with students in a mini-lesson but packed with writer's craft that we can teach students how to identify and imitate," explains @PennyKittle. https://t.co/AUFTWZrNXC

Love this story.

There is a story I have been meaning to tell for a while. During the Afghan evacuation operation, a girl arrived at Al Dhafra airbase, exhausted, with an unusual possession: a bird. She had fought all the way at Kabul airport, to bring the treasured little thing with her.

Did you know there is a 700 km walking trail that loops around PEI? 😲
The Island Walk takes approximately 32 days to complete if you walk 20-25 km per day!
You can find information about trails in different parts of the Island at https://t.co/5pedJJUVKm🚶🏼‍♀️🚶🏿
