No matter how you go about it, talking to your kids about their art is important. Building connections through artmaking is natural. Connecting with your kids and talking to them about their creativity is the perfect way to show you care! https://t.co/s05j0CDKdc

A reminder for all of us heading back to school this week - every child matters.🤍

[Jason Leach @jkleach01]

They’re Back! After a couple of years put on hold, the Take PE Home Bags are ready to go home with students once again. Each week, 2 students in each grade level @Independence_ES are randomly selected to take PE equipment home to encourage families to be active & play together.

Engaging student voice is not just being willing to hear what students have to say. It's about reimagining and transforming education in response to what students have to say. If all we're doing is hearing what they have to say, we're manipulating, not engaging.

R is for Rainbow! 🌈 Rainbow flags have been waving in honor of the LGBTQIA+ community since 1978. These symbols continue to evolve and take new forms, like the 2018 Progress Pride Flag by Daniel Quasar. Together, let's learn what each of these colors represent! #PrideMonth

[Jen & Hannah are here to support teachers&students @trustingreaders]

Remember when we talked about tracking reading joy instead of tracking minutes? As you reflect on the year, ask Ss what brought them joy as readers.
Ask: How can you carry that joy into the summer?
Be ready to send home lots of books.

Self-assessment time. Where are you on the line? Are you getting the support you need? You are not alone.

As requested by Twitter friends, I am sharing the link to the 10 Days resource. A special thanks to the Lead Teacher Team @EvergreenCSSD and my pals at @eips https://t.co/OwQyKbcbKi

What if we changed the wording from "late slips" to "welcome to school slips"? The office should be a welcoming place, not a place to get a ticket for your perceived failure. Words matter.

Let's do this with *all* our kids! Co-regulation and holding space for our students physically, mentally, and emotionally creates strong, healing connections. @dwrighttvdsb @Luv2travel4fun @AFynClass @Staceylmountfo1 @TVDSBSafeSchool

Pronouncing a student or anyone's name is important.

Grade 4/5 S’s were in awe of the costumes in Lion King on Broadway, so they designed their own for the dancers. There are so many ways to respond to drama, besides a writing task. Let that creativity flow! #ADSBlearns
