Today we honoured residential school survivors, and those who never made it home. Student commitment to truth and reconciliation was evident school wide through reflections, artwork, poetry and leadership. We will continue our journey with open hearts. Bertrun E. Glavin School 🧡

Andrew Shtulman I think you would be interested in Dr. Kieran Egan's work on #imagination. Socio-cultural perspective. Arguably the most comprehensive educational theory and practice designed to grow imagination. #imaginED circe-sfu.ca/kieran-egan/

Zach Groshell I'm curious about your opinion on this, as I respect your understanding of cognitive load. What if the learning targets and success criteria are sequenced into something like the image below over the course of a unit of study, or even just a week or something?

What if our assessment documentation was a living and breathing gathering of information, rather than a static mark in a book?

Some ideas light me up like I’ve just discovered my life’s purpose. And then vanish before lunch. This is the start of a little series about that very specific magic—and how I’m learning to let it count anyway. #adhdwriter #adhd #ideas dashofdistraction.wordpress.com/2025/03/28/the…

Welcome to The Spark and the Fade—a short series about inspiration, attention, and letting go of the shame that comes with not finishing things.(This is one I needed to write for myself.) dashofdistraction.wordpress.com/2025/03/28/the… #BlogSeries #ChronicRestarters #ADHDWriter #adhd #sparkandfade

The final post in my series The Spark and the Fade is live. Letting go of the pressure to finish everything and learning to see value even in the things we never “did something” with. ✨ Link in bio dashofdistraction.wordpress.com/2025/04/20/the… #adhd #SparkAndFade #UnfinishedProjects #WriterLife

Tools of the Week: Literate Eye and Mystery/Puzzle. We are reading #Erebos Ursula Poznanski 🇺🇦 Students are trying to solve the mystery as they read. A great way to study character, elements of plot, suspense and conflict. #mystery #imaginEd #highschool #middleschool #novelstudy

Imaginative Tool of the Week: Role Play. This semester I changed things up from a traditional novel study and explored #erebos from a Detective lens. Much more engagement in the novel from all learners when they have investment in the book! #imaginEd #IE #studentengagement
