@TDSB_Ogden Today is my last tweet from this account. I have been promoted to Vice Principal @Sprucecourt. Thank you for the best teaching years at Ogden, I will miss you all! Remember: change is unsettling but good for us! #StayStrong#MentalHealthMatters
@ChildLifeMorgan@TDSB_Ogden@Sprucecourt I will miss you, too! You are such a dynamic energy and wonderful source of ideas and initiatives at Ogden. Thank you for all your support, our talks were always helpful! You are amazing!
@TDSB_Ogden We've been in quarantine for 91 days (informal count). What a startling number! You should be proud of yourself for making it this far! Think about something that you've accomplished, big or small, and be proud. Cling to positive thoughts!
@TDSB_Ogden Today's message is about the importance of #hope: what simple actions bring you joy? Try to stay in the moment. Laugh. For more messages of hope from students for students, check out @TheGoodViral#MentalHealthMatters
@TDSB_Ogden Use the 20-20-20 Rule to give your eyes a break from staring at a screen for too long. Every 20 mins stare at something 20 ft away for 20 secs. This will also help you be #mindful of the amount of time you're spending on ur device #MentalHealth
@TDSB_Ogden Having trouble getting stuff done in Quarantine? I model the 1-3-5 Rule for making a To-do List. Make sure to include energizing AND soothing activities as part of your #selfcare routine. Be forgiving if you don't get it all done #MentalHealth
@TDSB_Ogden Today I talk about the importance of #resilience. Resilience means bouncing back during difficult times. Many of us are feeling down from yesterday's news. Try this activity to change the frown to fun! #StayActive#MentalHealthMatters
@TDSB_Ogden Today I model My Circles of Contol to help deal with anxiety. It's natural to worry about our uncertain future, but focusing on what we can control makes us feel better. Snow in May? Can't control. #StayActive Can control! #MentalHealthMatters
@TDSB_Ogden Today is the start of #ChildrensMentalHealth week. Watch Bibi and I model the Hot Chocolate deep breathing technique. Learning to manage our strong emotions will help our relationships with our families, esp. when we're stuck inside with them!
@TDSB_Ogden Bibi and I finished our 1000 piece puzzle! We started at the beginning of quarantine. Learning comes in many forms. Doing a #puzzle teaches perseverance and focus. Engaging in activities away from your device is good for your #mentalhealth
