Good morning #PD4uandme. I'm Heather from Alberta 🇨🇦. I teach middle school (mostly #MLL #ELL #ESL). I ❤️ Twitter for PD, Instagram to follow teachers, and TikTok to connect with students (by making the most cringe videos ever, but having fun). Would love to hear how you use it.

Thank you for hosting #pd4uandme. It's always a pleasure.

Some students go an entire day at school without anyone saying their name. Be the adult who speaks to each student by name. Everyone loves to hear their name.

There are so many pressures that we all face every day. Keeping our mind strong and our outlook positive is critical. It isn’t always easy, but we must try #WorldMentalHealthDay #Mentalhealth

Yesterday after school #selfcare was driving to another city meet our daughter (we meet half way) for a leisurely dinner before we each needed to drive home again. It was just what I needed. ❤️#pd4uandme

Last year when I began grad school, I really learned to prioritize my planning/teaching and spent a lot less time on it by focusing on the essentials. This year, I've been able to do so even more. More time for grad school, but also more time for me and my family. #pd4uandme

We love to walk at the dog park - it’s quiet and the views are amazing, though a little more brown this time time of year - the fall colours are beautiful. #pd4uandme

Good morning #pd4uandme! I'm Heather - middle school teacher in Alberta 🇨🇦. 👋

My ELLs have been making huge strides & we're finishing a V-Day PBL, so celebrating w/ a party. Admin, counsellors, office staff have been invited, almost all will attend. Potluck, games, music planned - Ss are excited! #pd4uandme

We have a Staff Love List - we all enter our favourite food, drink, colours, candy, scents, etc. It goes into a giant spreadsheet so we can treat others w/ things they love. Also nice when Ss ask about their teacher's faves. #pd4uandme
