Mental illness and addiction affects a sizable portion of the population. A reminder that you do not have to face this battle alone. #BellLetsTalk

This is the third year in a row that you've been trying to teach during a pandemic.

Of course you're tired.

Of course it's hard to stay positive.

Better times will come, but it's ok to not be ok right now.

[Theresa Meikle @T__Meikle]

Enjoy a sweet new year!

BOUNCE BALL! A fun cooperative game where students try and catch the ball as it bounces in different directions off the exercise ball. Teams earn a point for each catch. Love seeing students working together and excited for each other in #physed

Protecting unvaccinated children is everyone's job.

[Kareem Farah @Kareemfarah23]

The best way to build strong relationships with students is to engage in frequent 1-1 conversations. The challenge is finding the time to do that. The key is to design a classroom when students drive their own learning so you have the time to drive the individual discussions.

She calls them "pretty titles." I think they look like stickers!

It's easier than you think to make them. I am obsessed!

If we learned anything from #DistanceLearning, it’s the power of adaptability. This year, educators are reimagining traditional methods, updating them with tools and strategies from remote instruction. Here are #BackToSchool tips shared by educators during our #GoogleEduChat ↓

[Bethany Hill🌟#JoyfulLeaders @bethhill2829]

We need to stop the language around “learning loss” and “catching up”.

We need to focus on strengths based, culturally responsive, trauma informed school cultures.

"In Aboriginal thought, the Spirit enters this earth walk with a purpose for being here and with specific gifts for fulfilling that purpose…It has a hunger and a thirst for learning". (Marie Battiste, 2010) Much to learn from an indigenous perspective! #onted #leaders #learn
