It can be discouraging to hear that Canadians are feeling "negative" emotions, but it's actually healthy to feel a full range of emotions. Recognizing, understanding and processing our feelings is a sign of good #MentalHealth! #GetReal UBC Media Relations news.ubc.ca/2021/05/03/cov…

We would like to wish everyone a wonderful, restful, restorative long weekend! This is a great opportunity to unplug and spend some time outside. Let's see if we can reduce our screen time this weekend and find some other activities to nurture our spirits! #may24 NLESD

Can you read this? Decoding is a vital part of learning to read. Many students must be explicitly taught phonics, phonemic awareness, orthographic awareness, and language comprehension skills in order to successfully learn to read. 🧠♥️📚 #scienceofreading

Unpredictability and change can exacerbate mental health difficulties. There are resources available. Please keep this info close and share with your contacts. Stay well everyone. 🧠♥️

Hello to Psychologists In Education (PIE) NL !! Our new NLTA Special Interest Council. Give a follow😊🧡

We can't let the week end without wishing our School Counsellor friends a "Happy School Counsellor's week!" 😊You are so valued and appreciated for all the work you do. Thank you for being simply AMAZING! Have a great Friday and weekend! NLCPA NLESD

Some months ago, we decided to start work on an education/awareness project called Language Matters! We reached out to @GSDSIC to see if they would collab on our first installment. Just in time for #PrideMonth we are excited to share what we've developed!

As psychologists, and as educators, lifelong learning is necessary to both understand harms done in the past, as well as to work to make amends and better our impact going forward. That includes allyship in action.

We hope you find these images useful to educate yourselves, as well as your students, colleagues, and school communities. Thank you to @GSDSIC for your time, labour, and insight as we worked on this project. We look forward to ongoing partnerships! NLTA NLESD
