I just picked up my lunch from #GrandmaLovesYou at 1084 Yonge Street, #Toronto Ontario (near Rosedale station). I did a lot of contemplation of my 40 years of memories. But, I can honestly say that their Chicken BLT Deluxe is the BEST #SANDWICH I've ever had in my life! #lunch

The Ukranian festival, the Polish festival, and the Waterfront festival certainly gave my feet a workout over the weekend. There's always something happening in #Toronto. --- I walked 20,000 steps today and got the High Tops badge with Fitbit! #Fitstats

Introduce students to identifying, and using poetic devices using this classroom-ready lesson plan and slide deck. Teach literary devices, through multimodal supports that might just lead to you dancing in front of your entire class! #WhatBinder #EdChat whatbinder.com/2022/09/15/2-0…

The best way to get students to engage with poetry is to create poetry. This #WhatBinder lesson plan includes a classroom ready lesson plan, and assignment sheet that you can use tomorrow! Students create insightful poetry using an accessible template. whatbinder.com/2022/09/19/2-0…

This lesson plan and slide deck scaffolds your approach to teaching types of poetry. By introducing students to a variety of different poem types, and giving them an opportunity to create their own, you provide a safe place for them to explore the form. whatbinder.com/2022/09/20/2-0…

Introduce #poetry, not by fussing over every small detail, but encouraging students to make personal connections between the work and their own experience. By making the #poem meaningful to themselves, with this lesson plan they make poetry meaningful. whatbinder.com/2022/09/22/2-0…

Aside from "time" what is the one thing #educators need more of, to do their job effectively? #teaching #teachers #edchat

The #WhatBinder English course pack is being updated once again. This resource for #teachers provides a free unit-guide for running Literature Circles. Individual lessons will be updated as the updates continue. #EdChat #LitCircle whatbinder.com/2022/12/16/3-0…

When asking students to self-select their texts for literature circles, they need the same resource that teachers never seem to have enough of: time. Honour the self-selection process, by providing them that resource using this #WhatBinder lesson plan. whatbinder.com/2022/12/20/3-0…

Hey, DONNY CATES, I haven't read Thor since before the Onslaught era. I want to jump back in, but have no idea where to start. Any thoughts on what trade to start with?

I want to thank @RyanHigginsRyan for the site justcomicnews.com I had no idea that Daniel Clowes was releasing a new book! But, now I do! Amazing news on all fronts.

Very pleased to be part of unleashing learning this year! Digital literacy is such an important skill for all educators to put into practice! #tdsbUL23 #tdsb

Street Fighter got a little bit strange #PS4share

With #spiderman back in Across The #Spiderverse I thought I'd share these two paintings Shawn Daley created for my daughter Gwen, and my son Miles. #WhatIf superheroes lived in #Toronto? Check out his current projects at shawndaley.ca

Have ADHD? Know someone with ADHD? #Teacher (which 💯 means you have students with ADHD)? Read "Button Pusher" by @tylerpage! Best book I've read in ages. It explains #ADHD in an engaging Graphic Novel format for all ages. Toronto Public Library link: torontopubliclibrary.ca/detail.jsp?Ent…

I've just started reading "Ever" and will likely make it through Serial and Parker Girls by the end of the week. These characters have been such a constant for the last thirty years... (I still believe the show Girl Meets World was heavily modeled after it... Prove me wrong!)

And just like that, I'm caught up with the #terryverse by @TerryMooreArt What a journey. I hope there's another adventure ahead. #katchoo #comics #SummerReading

It's exciting to see it live again, and not a month from now!
