BREAKING NEWS:
Another 100 bodies found in Manitoba, Brandon Residential school, was posted 56 minutes ago. Sad the 215 is now 315, and it’s gonna get a lot bigger after these investigations keep going.
I have taken the #OntEd consultation document, rotated the pages correctly, and OCR'd it so the text can be copied-and-pasted. I've uploaded it to Google Drive for everyone to share. Please share widely.

Give my daughter a chance to feel like she belongs! Inclusive education is important! Stop cuts to Special Ed. funding! #ETFOstrong#cutshurtkids #ETFOPeel
For starters:
• balanced literacy=whole language (it doesn’t)
• the critical role of independent reading (YES it matters)
• Cueing sources are all about guessing (total inaccuracy)
• phonics precedes meaning making (they work in concert)
• flawed research perspective
Thank you to the @TDSB painting crew. @TDSB_FensidePS students now have newly painted basketball courts to practice their skills on. The students (and a few staff) can’t wait to play on those courts.@LC2_TDSB@trixiedoyle
