Had the opportunity to support a FOS TL Network in the North yesterday. We reviewed the resources on Destiny Discover, explored how podcasts can be implemented school-wide and build in tech opportunities.

During our SPARK #BookCreator, @MsAlexander20 @MrForestieri and I shared how to create multi-layered texts with @mindomo @FollettSoftware & @CapstonePub that: 1️⃣ Capture authentic assessment 2️⃣ Amplify student voice, and 3️⃣ Build community connections through identity pieces

Empowering students to celebrate Black Canadian heroes. ⁦Through coding, they’re creating interactive book covers that bring stories of resilience, brilliance & culture to life. #BlackHistory #RepresentationMatters @peel21st⁩ ⁦@FairviewPSPDSB⁩ ⁦@MrForestieri⁩

🎙️Excited to share that @1in5kidz & I set up a Podcast studio at @FairlawnPSPDSB. This space will empower students to share their stories, ideas & experiences, giving them a platform to be heard & celebrated! We also trained two talented Future Podcasters! @peel21st @B_ernadette

The students coded the Dash robot to transport various resources from one region to another. The addition of 21st century competencies really sparked the engagement! @peel21st @PeelEML @GarthwoodPark_K

Having a blast learning about Stop Motion Studio. Students are going to love making movies to show what they know! @PeelSchools @peel21st #EML #Stopmotionstudio
