@mellisa224 At SJAM, we were there for one another. Circle was our treasured community! I miss those days.

My response to people saying "I'd just use a calculator" whenever they encounter a math problem

New feature: You can now assign Polypad creations directly to your students 📣

Polypad's "Assign" button automatically creates an Amplify Classroom activity and lets you invite your students. No more manual workarounds.

✨ Try it now: https://t.co/KDeNzvMaVX.

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.

Yet another accident on Argyle, and no one is directing traffic again #caledonia #opp

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!

"You can't let kids use resources on tests."

Sure you can.

This year, can't less and can more.

[Monte Syrie @MonteSyrie]

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.

[Monte Syrie @MonteSyrie]

Pssst.

Retakes are not about grading.

They are about learning.

Pass it on.

[Monte Syrie @MonteSyrie]

If learning is the value, then the value is learning.

Not grading.

@MonteSyrie I am loving these! It is affirming!
Thank you

Apparently, going "back-to-basics" is code for getting rid of educators!

Since 2019, the gov't has cut 5000 educators from #OntEd. They've made class sizes bigger to cut costs. Instead of investing in students, Ford shortchanges them at every turn! #OSSTF

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.
