Teachers, What is one thing your principal has done or you wish they would do to make your life easier?

I’m looking to be better.

I’ve had a few teachers ask me for personalized videos with Emmanuel to welcome their students back to school! I can’t make a personalized one for every classroom, but I figured some of you could use this one💕 Have a great year!

How do we move our education system away from the belief that Indigenous knowledge is something to be ‘integrated’ into subject areas, to the realization that it should be foundational to all things within the system itself…including the structure? #IndigenousEd #Reform

Read widely. Read diverse. #ownvoices. Read graphic novels, middle grade, picture books, young adult, memoir, literary fiction, dystopian, fantasy, truth, to understand yourself and others better, to learn, history, speculative fiction, and more. Read Canadian. #ReadCanadianDay

As a principal, I’m supposed to be an “instructional leader.” But I told our teachers this week, that I don’t know how to do that in the middle of a pandemic.

Right now is not the best time to talk about programs, plans, data points, and “best practices.” It is time to support.

Students become accomplished readers by reading — voluminously and broadly.

Really aren’t any shortcuts.

[Tricia Penner @tpenner]

@KarinFreiling Yes 🤪

Blended Learning Tip: Create an “instructions” video for your students that gives a big picture view of the day or lesson. This would be a simple 1 to 2-minute screencast that walks students through the day’s activities, how to access, post, and submit assignments. @WeVideo

I hope schools that are closing because of covid19 are offering low income students access to technology.

And yes, I literally mean if we have to, taking a computer from the school and placing it at a child's home.

Now this doesn't solve internet challenges but it's a start...

@gastonlofi12 Let’s do this!

As a teacher, we’re used to being embarrassing right?! Had to make the first video in my lip sync en español @Flipgrid. Contest for my students 😂 #itsworthit @McCordMiddle
