When we talk about teaching, we're talking about what adults will do.
Shifting our conversations from the word "teaching" to the word "learning" puts our focus on what the job is really all about.
The first small baby step for designing learning for all kids in the room.
I had the privilege of visiting Spirit Island this past summer (just before the Jasper fire) amazing place!
So sad about Jasper.
I wish all the people of Jasper the very best as they rebuild. Met some incredible people!
Instead of, “Is he passing?”
Let’s try, “Is he learning?”
Our conversation will never move on from the pass-fail construct, until our questions move on.
Let’s move on.
We can do better.

Under the new formula, kindergarten will have to make do with 1,600 fewer staff. Grades 4 to 8 will have almost 1,000 fewer staff. Grades 9 to 12 will lose almost 2,600 positions. Table 1 below presents the board-by-board losses.
