Imagine an education system where we encourage students to admit they will never have all the answers, while instilling the academic confidence to face any question. After all, the right inquiry > the correct answers in building a thinking classroom every time. 🧙🏽‍♂️

Attending a former student's high school graduation tonight, I kept thinking to myself "they grow up so fast" ... then realized how much I've grown because of their impact on me, too. #BeyondProud #MSBaccess @MCKSmithBennett @actondistrict @garyallanschool @HaltonDSB

Is there anything cooler than watching your students independently succeed? Amazing @tigerjeetps representation at the #iThinkCelebration. Biggest thank-you to @IThinkTogether for their work with kids across @HaltonDSB

Our students have finished their display board, prepared to explain their process, reacquainted with their recommendations, and are extremely excited for the @IThinkTogether Celebration of Learning tomorrow! @rotmanschool @tigerjeetps @HaltonDSB

@CheyandPav @PavWander @mrccheney Look what just arrived today! Hoping to record some pilots in June 🤗

"Promoting a growth mindset in math as we welcome students into the classroom." ––P @MrsLCumming

Sometimes one of the coolest parts of teaching is #ProblemSolving after student shows they don't understand a concept. It gives me a chance to reassure them #ItsMeNotYou while supporting their #MathConfidence. Here's a collection from our #LearningForwardGallery ... @tigerjeetps

Students have published their Choose Your Own Adventure projects, complete with detailed stories, engaging sound clips, & @NightcafeStudio visuals! @tigerjeetps @HDSBLiteracy @HDSBSpecEd

Class is mid-way through their #ChooseYourOwnAdventure story writing projects. Will use @googleslides to organize the narrative and @craiyonAI for some of the visuals. Special thanks to @MrMcLain @MrSteltman @mrelseclass & @ericcurts for the ideas! @tigerjeetps @HDSBLiteracy

The International #DayofPink is dedicated to creating a more inclusive and expansive world that is free of discrimination. Today and every day, the #HDSB is committed to upholding Human Rights, and challenging and disrupting gender stereotypes, homophobia and transphobia.

@mrccheney We just got approved to order the setup you recommended at the #ETFOICT Conference! Hoping to have the equipment by May so we can do some pilots for a student-centered, school community podcast @tigerjeetps 🤗

We're excited to see the growth of podcasting in education - it's a tool that's transforming learning and teaching spaces 🎙️

@MrSteltman @googleslides @craiyonAI @MrMcLain @mrelseclass @ericcurts @tigerjeetps @HDSBLiteracy We most certainly will! I'll be sharing them here and then emailing you copies, too. ☺️

@HDSBaccess @googleslides @craiyonAI @MrMcLain @mrelseclass @ericcurts @tigerjeetps @HDSBLiteracy Wow! So glad you're enjoying the content. Please share some student examples back when you're done!

We're also experimenting with @NightcafeStudio for more in-depth AI visuals ... stay tuned for student exemplars in a few weeks!

@NaturesNEAR @googleslides @craiyonAI @MrMcLain @MrSteltman @mrelseclass @ericcurts @tigerjeetps @HDSBLiteracy This is amazing! Do you mind if we share this around @tigerjeetps for teachers to use? @HDSB_OEE might also want to share it on your behalf, too 😉

@HDSBaccess @googleslides @craiyonAI @MrMcLain @MrSteltman @mrelseclass @ericcurts @tigerjeetps @HDSBLiteracy We love #ChooseYourOwnAdventure stories! Nature's NEAR Co-op students made a choose your own migration game in 2021 if you want another example! 🙂🐦🪶 sites.google.com/hdsb.ca/projec…

Our class has really been enjoying the STEM puzzles released by @engineers_feed every few days. They've been a great entry activity and have stimulated a lot of quality #NumberTalks . @tigerjeetps @HDSBMath

Ramadan Mubarak to all #HDSB students, staff, families and community members observing during this holy month. May this time bring you joy and peace.

Feeling lucky to be outside facilitating PD for @HDSB_OEE with headliner @LifeIsAthletic . Awesome people, awesome weather, awesome venue! Grateful for the chance to spend a day with so many like-minded educators @CHeritagePark @HaltonDSB

Today we discussed the following questions and shared our perspectives on important issues pertaining to collective social media use. A final reflection on a class designed social media app with collectively brainstormed features will be the final activity for the unit.

REFRAMED THE PROBLEM: How might we help Social Media Companies and Advocate Groups design an entirely new model that generates safe, private connections with fun, profitable entertainment? #BlurryPhoto #ProjectorGlare

Watched #TheSocialDilemma (youtu.be/uaaC57tcci0) then #WhyYouShouldntWatchTheSocialDilemma (youtu.be/wBnLJrZ21wc) before examining bias in media and beginning a #ProProChart for how to reform #SocialMedia so it doesn't destroy the world. 😂 @tigerjeetps @RotmanIThink

Absolutely love seeing the parent of a @tigerjeetps student alongside these amazing people ... contemporary connections resonate with students the most! All credit for this goes to Ms Spalding. #MakingHistoryOneGenerationAttaTime @drewbrownmusic @JullyBlack @HDSBEquity
