Educators are exploring the many aspects of collaborating to creating inclusive learning environments within schools to ensure equitable access to learning for all students. @YorkUedPL #ELLs #summerlearning #TELLAQ Thanks for sharing: Ms B gillian montgomery Kkimia

What a wonderful learning opportunity! Thank you to all that organized and delivered this very important information. #yrdsb #mentalhealth #safeTALK

It is very helpful for #ELL teachers to use #RunningRecords as a check to assess what students know about letters, sound and words. This is also a great tool to use with #ELD students as well. #ESL #professionaldevelopment #yrdsb

To my fellow educators-check out ERGO they have wonderful resources that are great supplements to teaching about #financialliteracy.Their Live Well series is also amazing for supporting the #mentalwellness of refugee newcomers. #ELL #ELD #MOE #ESL ergo-on.ca

“Children of trauma get startled and scare easily. They perceive many things as potentially unsafe and threatening, and may react in a way that seems out of character for them or in a way that seems argumentative or aggressive.” schoolleadersnow.weareteachers.com/childhood-trau…

Positive relationships with caring adults can help buffer students from the effects of #trauma and chronic #stress, making #traumainformed schools "healing places." edutopia #edchat ow.ly/cEfn50x6q8k

These are fantastic for mature #ELD students! #ELL
