Many of the strategies in the UDL framework may cause you to think, “that’s just good teaching.” This is true! But the framework brings INTENTIONALITY to removing barriers in our instruction. #LeadInclusion #SEL #EdChat #Inclusion

Who's excited to be heading to the #VRC ON Provincial Championships?! These kids stuck with it through full closures, virtual & in person sessions to design, build, code & compete with 3 different robot concepts! Cheer them on this wknd in #Ottawa! 🥳 @REC_Foundation @VEXRobotics

A positive #BackToClass for students, staff, & parents as they returned to a newly renovated St Bernadette Catholic School in #London. 

Ontario invested $3.7M to build a new addition with additional classrooms and installation of mechanical ventilation to support #SaferSchools.

As if the ICU Nurses don't do enough for us, many of them took the time to respond to my students' letters. I am incredibly emotional working to get the letters to the right kiddos. Thank you so much to all of the nurses who wrote back. #spreadkindness

[Kelly Shuto @keshuto]

I’m so excited to share something I have been working on for a while. I have published my first children’s book! It’s been a lifelong dream and it’s almost here. “What Does it Mean to be Brave?” will be available in a few short weeks! #brave #ChildrensBooks #PictureBooks

My mom (age 94) insisted on posing for a photo after she got her first dose of the Covid vaccine today at the Western Fair Agriplex. It was extremely well organized and efficient. A special thank you to Nurse Diane from LHSC #gotmyshot
