Grading can be complicated and time-consuming, says T @LucyKirchh. So she's distilled her system to a "single-point" rubric – learn more about her approach (inspired by @cultofpedagogy) here: https://t.co/Y9ahdZqa1s

After 16 weeks our @FanshaweCollege team and @reboot_plus participants gathered to celebrate the conclusion of the program. Thank you to our speaker @RhondaChoja for her inspiring words and to @LdnOntChamber, @TVDSB, @douglascollege, and Future Skills Centre for their support.

My multilingual learner (MLL) class and alternative/experiential learning class made Valentine's Day cards for the residents at Chartwell Aylmer Long-Term Care Home to spread love within our community.

Please remember to be kind & show gratitude on this holiday (and beyond).

Kids don't plan to come to school to get into trouble. Behaviour is a form of communication and quite often - the reason for it will make you sad, not angry.

It's spooky szn so what better way to engage our 3Cs in paragraph writing than to set up clues for a murder investigation 👻🚔 #halloweenspirit #detectivework @eastelgin

During Truth and Reconciliation Week we can teach truth with dignity-we can share Residential School pain but we must also cover resilience & Indigenous contribution-we cannot simply re/victimize our students-we must educate them about Indigenous contribution to our modern world.

[Brad Weinstein @WeinsteinEdu]

Important reminder. 🙌

[Ms. DeJong @jillian_dejong]

My 3U class wrote down actionable steps they can take to raise awareness about residential schools, learn more about the 94 calls, and how they can support local Indigenous communities. HOPE was at the forefront of our dialogue. #TruthAndReconciliation #EveryChildMatters

Adults can reframe children’s challenging behavior in a way that strengthens their relationship.

This is the COOLEST. A Google Earth-type representation of the planet. Every green dot is a radio station. Click any dot to listen in. It’s like cultural teleportation. You could spend hours with this thing… https://t.co/rdEHUUfgvk
