Grade 7 students share what they feel they have "lost" by learning in a pandemic. Not one student listed "math", "literacy" or content skills.

Such a treat to speak with these compassionate and critical thinkers Groh PS this morning as they worked on their design thinking projects to support newcomers in Waterloo Region DSB schools and communities. Many of them have lived experience as newcomers to Canada.

Amy Edmondson I read your book this summer & am creating resources for elementary students on intelligent failure, basic failure, & psychological safety. Tried the “electric” maze today with great success! Would love to collaborate, get feedback, or pick your brain.
