@JBradshaw01 So going back to just 1 recess would go back to the original issue of an increase of behaviours in those last 20 minutes. I recall my Principal telling us that the school boards had studied this.

@JBradshaw01 When we changed from 1 60 min recess to 2 40 min Nut. breaks, our Principal told us that one of the many reasons for the switch was b/c the last 20 min of that 60 min. lunch saw huge amounts of behaviour issues. Eliminating the last 20 min helped curb the behaviours.

@jennyleeshee I seem to recall that @CAA would give free maps to teachers. Not sure if they still do.

Can people be fooled into thinking authoritarianism is better than democracy? Here is what award-winning novelist Margaret Atwood has to say:

A raging inferno of COVID is surging nationwide—35 states now report HIGH or VERY HIGH COVID levels… and this doesn’t even include the new post-holiday gathering wave from Xmas/NYE. And even if many are mild—Long COVID is not and affects 10-33% of milder cases. #CovidIsNotOver

@deonandan Interesting! I have to say the amount of curriculum I was able to cover while teaching Kindergarten online increased dramatically compared to when I teach it in person.

Let me make one thing very clear: Transphobia, homophobia, and biphobia have no place in this country. We strongly condemn this hate and its manifestations, and we stand united in support of 2SLGBTQI+ Canadians across the country – you are valid and you are valued.

@SholaMos1 The timing of this “interview” is interesting. Right after the positive press of the Invictus Games.

@GMB The timing of this is sus. Right after the Invictus Games.

@Writer_DG Someone shared this list of banned books on another thread. A book I have in my classroom about the Underground Railroad is on that list (“Henry’s Freedom Box”- a true story!) Glad I don’t teach where this is happening https://t.co/puCyHReihG

I had a friend who was violently attacked by his Dad when he told him he was gay. And he was an adult by then.

He threw his son down the stairs. So even when it's voluntary outing, it's dangerous.

No student should EVER be outed to their parents against their will.

@Teachers__Unite @BDrainvilleQc has obviously never taught Kindergarten! 😳 I taught every grade and K was definitely the most demanding.

“Think about it. The Ford government claims there is nothing surprising in the mandate letters and yet the first time we get a glimpse of one, we discover some startling revelations.”

Ok guys, it’s time for me to tell you about something very enlightening that I read in a book recently:

75% of people would rather being knowingly wrong and blend in, than be right and stand out. And there’s a well known psychology experiment that proved it. 🧵
