The wind is not helping. Could be a long and stressful night for some. #Osoyoos #BCWildfires

I’m also having a hard time shaking “guys”. I think it’s because I do view it as a gender neutral term, although I know not everyone perceives it this way. Here are some good ideas for alternatives.

These are the results of our inquiry. I’m so proud of how seriously my students took this project! ⁦Beach Grove⁩ ⁦DeltaSchoolDistrict⁩

Voice and Choice: It's not just options, it's ownership. #inclusion #UDL #voiceandchoice Dr. John Spencer DeltaSchoolDistrict #vision2040 #visionweek

While #inclusion is not an innovative topic, sometimes it requires innovative ideas! #assistivetechnology #thinkingoutsidethebox SET-BC DeltaSchoolDistrict #Vision2030

#Inclusion does not just happen. You have to plan with ALL students in mind. My old friend Kristin Wiens knows this, and here in DeltaSchoolDistrict, we build our practice on this and see it in action daily! #Vision2030

What are the stressors, unmet needs, and skill deficits that our students are experiencing? We must always remember, "Kids do well if they can!" -Dr. Ross Greene #inclusion #reframebehaviour (thanks to Kristin Wiens for creating the best visuals)

I love working with students, but yesterday Penny the duck had my attention for a while. #workduck #distraction #canIkeepit ⁦Home Quest Delta⁩

Starting something new? "Do what your heart says. Be brave. Be friendly." Wise advice that is not just for kindergarten. Kudos to George Jay School for a brilliant welcome to K video. (Shout out to C - you know who you are.) youtube.com/watch?v=yUw7aI…

These aren't easy stories to hear, but they are important. I have stopped at Penelakut Island (formerly "Kuper Island") many many times enroute to its island neighbour, Thetis. This is a story that I did not know, and my perspective is changed. cbc.ca/listen/cbc-pod…

I don't know if you have seen how the NY New York Yankees are using their considerable social media influence on Twitter right now, but you definitely should. #guns #FactsMatter

It’s been a long time coming, but the DeltaSchoolDistrict journey canoe, Wave Warrior, hit the water today for the first time. I’m so grateful for everyone who was involved in the whole process from inception to paddling! Nathan “Kaanaax Kuwoox” Wilson HJ Wood Paige Hansen (She/Her) Indigenous Ed SD37

It is coming up on three years since my dad passed. In the weeks prior, we promised to donate blood to help pay the system back for all that he required. While it was only my 3rd donation on Saturday, I'd encourage everyone to get out and donate. Canadian Blood Services #donatetoday

Different. Not less.

Another blood donation today. A slow payback of the blood dad needed in his last years. Canadian Blood Services #donatetoday
