“We see no link to schools and omicron over the last 4 weeks” SCHOOLS HAVEN’T HAD KIDS IN THEM FOR 4 WEEKS!!

/1 Good morning Ontario! I made a helpful new slide for the Ontario Science Table, based off of the new JAMA publication of Ontario data. They really enjoy correlating things to screen time so I thought "less kids harming themselves or overdosing" might help.

Following up: here's what our room of Gr. 1 learners noticed and wondered. The very first thing anyone said was, "I notice that everyone is white." Competent, capable, curious, and rich in potential indeed. Stephen Lecce Jill Dunlop IDA Ontario our class has some questions for you!

What else?

Looking for input from other primary teachers using play/inquiry/emergent pedagogy. How are you creating Long Range Plans?

Today in grade 1/2 I have uttered the phrase "there will be none of the gender essentialist nonsense in this learning community" three times. It is 9:27am.

Stephen Lecce has just mandated that all teachers have a B.Ed, lesson plans must contain planned lessons, tests have to assess learning, computers must be connected to the internet, floors must be on the ground, basketballs must bounce and water fountains have to provide water.

Today we honoured the children who were denied the right of speaking and learning in their own language by writing “Every child matters”in our own languages #ChaqueEnfantCompte tumpanepublicschool Downsview PS Learning Centre 2 M. Hamid Wendy Banhan

Wishing an easy fast and a good Yom Kippur to my students and families who are celebrating starting this evening.

I used this task in class yesterday with 5th graders. There was struggle and confusion. Conclusion: provide more opportunities for confusion and teach what to do when your confused. Highly recommend! #thinkingclassroom Dan Meyer

Shout out to my teacher colleagues who just keep shoving the mess behind their desk until they can't sit down so the class space is clean and uncluttered. #oopsasupplyteacher #bettershiftthings

Planning for an unfamiliar occasional teacher: reasons why I am still at work at almost 6pm.

Today's big question in Grade 1. Can something be Fiction and still be True? Wow. Let me think about that for a while and let's talk about it on Monday. #onted

Doctor offered me a flu shot and Covid bivalent booster on Monday. In the same arm. 0/10 do not recommend. It's Thursday and I can almost move my arm again.

Someone has to say it: Elon Musk has lied for 27 years about his credentials. He does not have a BS in Physics, or any technical field. Did not get into a PhD program. Dropped out in 1995 & was illegal. Later, investors quietly arranged a diploma - but not in science. 🧵1/
