This is the beautiful bird found in our school yard yesterday. The Pilkington family is graciously caring for it until we find it’s rightful owner 💚 #OrleansOttawa PLS retweet to help us find it’s home.

🎨 The best way to see Van Gogh's "Starry Night" is to stare at the center of the spiral for 20 seconds and then look at the painting. RT when it works for you.

After dinner math... Roll the dice. Find the product. Draw ANY rectangle with that product. Keep the Blockus rules of having to share a corner with an area of your color (not an edge). Can't fit a rectangle? Strike. 3 strikes you are out. Biggest total area wins. #mathgames

#MondayMorning #Inclusion 🤍

It’s a basic misunderstanding that we teach a child self-control through punishment and rewards. In fact, #SelfReg is what makes self-control possible

Promised teacher librarians at ⁦@bctla⁩ I’d post this land acknowledgment students wrote on their own. I forgot which school, so if these are your students please reply and remind me! But this is so thoughtful and meaningful.

@ONT_Dad Did some math this morning on behalf of my CUPE colleagues! Minimum wage has increased 40% since June 1st, 2014 Their wages have increased 8.5% since 2012 They’re asking for 28.3% less than the minimum wage increase during that time and are losing their human rights 🤯

I am not an Ontarian, or a teacher, or an education assistant, but I have a perspective on the Ford government’s “Keeping Students in Schools Act”. I was Minister of Education in Alberta for 7 years, including the time the Charter was developed and enacted. #onted #onpoli

Ontario Conservatives have never given up on their plan. This is from 1995👇🏾#onted #onpoli

Doug Ford has: - Made strikes illegal - Forced a 4-year contract on CUPE - Broke a promise to protect the Greenbelt & will destroy its land - Appointed developer & PC donor Cortelluci (who ran for Italian Senate under a far-right banner) to the York Police Services Board #onpoli

Hahahahaha the government lawyer now talking about how asynchronous learning is bad for students because they are learning alone. Then why will Stephen Lecce only allow students to fulfil the mandatory 2 online credits in asynchronous courses???

As of today: - Schools are closed even though Doug Ford vowed it wouldn't happen - 1.6% of children in the Ontario Autism Program are being serviced & he won't give updates - Children's hospitals are overcrowded w/ no plans to address it This is Doug Ford "putting kids first."

The science is clear: Infant-toddler teachers are brain builders, not babysitters. The sooner public policy, training, and compensation catch up with this truth the better.

Researchers studied the effects of a 20-minute walk on the cognitive performance of a group of children. This is fascinating…

One of our students is missing! Please help us find Sal by reading and sharing this post. We think has moved toward downtown Ottawa area. OCSBSpecEd ottawacitizen.com/news/local-new…
