🥤Sound Walls & Starbucks (this could totally be a club!) Excited to chat with a colleague tonight about using a sound wall in their FDK classroom. ♥️ #Literacy #SoR #Phonics #UFLI #ReadingSuccess #EduTwitter #BetterTogether

🕷 This week our sound mapping task is getting a little creepy crawly! 🌕Students can use this as an independent centre during literacy groups and/or it can be used with an educator to explicitly teach/review & practice skills. #literacy #edutwitter #SoR #spiders

How Many? How did you count? #unitchat

After starting Reading Above the Fray by @JuliaBLindsey I made a copy of the Decoding Inventory she outlined. 🫶🏼 I use it to gauge how students are doing with skills we have explicitly covered to help plan next steps! #decoding #literacy #SoR #edutwitter

For all my awesome teachers that love things in a beautiful graphic, here is de-escalation strategies for meltdowns:

@MrsDeSanti @WestgateWolves @gecdsbpro Side by side

Excited to be joining the wolf pack @WestgateWolves as a contract teacher! RISE and primary prep here I come. 🎉 @gecdsbpro

@Kaitlyn34738973 @WestgateWolves You too! Where are you?

@smonrobaker @WestgateWolves Congratulations!!

Make sure to get your smile cookies this week! Money goes towards autism Windsor and CMHA!

Awesome first visit @SPSSabres! When you practise mindfulness (kindly paying attention to something on purpose right here & now) you are training your brain to FOCUS! You fire up the “focus” neurons. We breathed & shared peaceful places in Kdg, GAINS, Gr. 4, 5, 7 & 8 @gecdsbpro

Thank you @JodiNolin for visiting @SPSSabres GAINS today! We learned how to focus our minds and breathe with you today! ❤️ #specialvisitor #mindfulmoments @gecdsbpro

Our “Little Hands Heroes” stopped by Southwood for a visit before their journey to Toronto . Rehef and Ahmad - your super powers are fighting cancer ! 💪🏾💕💖

@MrsDeSanti @AVG_Griffins Well this is adorable

My favorite way to have students share about themselves is "Alphabet Share". It's going to sound almost too simple but it really does the job. The main 2 reasons I love it are because it lets those who are ready, share big and those who aren't, share small & it's so easy (1/3)

Guess what? It’s the 1st issue of The #DailySTEM for a new school year! It’s the perfect quick combo of #STEM & #literacy for kids… Download or share every issue free at dailystem.com/news

It’s very important to pronounce student names correctly. Take the time to ask, acknowledge and learn.

@loreescience Public board?

Chat is disabled for Ss by administrator (Board) in Teams & nobody though to tell the teachers?! We go virtual tomorrow. I have already put in 8 hrs of planning & prep TODAY alone to “PIVOT”, yet again, to another teaching modality for this content. #TeachersAreNOTOkay

@_msdennis @TVDSB Congrats!!

Starting 2021 with a new chapter. I am officially part of the @TVDSB team as an Elementary Occasional Teacher 🍎 Beyond excited to be taking the next step towards my dream career! ✨
