So honoured to have my former student Winston, who is now a host on Breakfast Television, mention me again on air as one of his favorite teachers! @owenpublic

@MsRChanner Love it! What grade is this for?

Working to navigate strand B of the new language curriculum in intermediate with 5 day word study plans. The big focus for me is using #thinkingclassroom elements while intentionally working on morphology. I am adding to the sequence weekly. 🙂docs.google.com/document/d/1hu…

@StephenMilesedu Good luck! We miss you at Owen! Our vice principal position just got cut and Caroline is retiring. Maybe you want to return to Canada!?!?!

Here we go! #earcos #kotakinabalu

@StephenMilesedu Love reading your updates! Keep them coming. A great adventure!

Moved into new apartment today and putting together a few items from ikea - lots of zip ties - so glad I ordered scissors to cut them. 🤣🤣🤣

@LCFaith EA’s in TDSB definitely assist with academics

Do EAs in your board ever work with Ss on academic goals? Or are they only deployed to help with behavior or physical exceptionalities? Safety type stuff? So academic goals on IEP need to be small enough to be achieved by classroom teacher alone?

@woodlandcc Would you be willing to do a tour for students during online learning?

Have you taken a virtual tour of the Mohawk Institute Residential School? Tonight at 7pm woodlandculturalcentre.ca/events

@metromorning @RebeccaZandberg Will school open on Wednesday for sure or are we just waiting to hear public reaction / seeing if hospital numbers go up?

Ontario's Chief Medical Officer of Health, Dr. Kieran Moore, will be on the show with @RebeccaZandberg tomorrow at 7:40 a.m. Do you have a question for him?

@MrsShonasClass @orioleparkjps @tdsb Where did you find these great resources (cards)?

We are continuing to learn about about how the brain and the difference between a #growthmindset and a fixed mindset. We worked in teams, discussed, sorted, and read some excellent stories to help us understand that we can all have “bubblegum brains!” @orioleparkjps @tdsb

@WinstonSih I think you may have been in my classroom that day!

Watching the #911Memorial 20th-anniversary on TV. Truly breaks my heart to see, hear, and read all the stories. There is a whole new generation of young people who know nothing about 9/11 and I hope they learn more about the significance of the day.

@shelleylaskin @tdsb @TorontoStar Who is paying for these tests?!?!

Staff @tdsb continue to work on the trustees Motion to develop Mandatory Vaccine Procedure. An update will be provided at the upcoming Governance and Policy Committee meeting on Wednesday, September 8… until then Star describes process thestar.com/politics/provi… via @torontostar

Happy travels! This month, ESL students created and took us on virtual field trips to Cuba, Hong Kong, France, Mexico, Iran and Hawaii! @owenpublic

@lexi43558210 @VaxHuntersCan Did you get your vaccine? What time did u get in line for the non priority line and what time did you get your vaccine?

@VaxHuntersCan I have a purple card and I’m number 393 but now we are hearing they are prioritizing other hotspots? Does this mean I won’t for sure get it?

[ON] 🚨🚨TORONTO!🚨🚨 We are hearing reports 🌟JIMMIE SIMPSON🌟 is DONE with 2nd doses for the day PLEASE DO NOT GO THERE at this time! #VHCDose2 #COVID19ON #vhcON

@MGHToronto Is anyone in the non-priority line getting shots?

Individuals not eligible for priority access may be asked to join a separate line. These non-priority individuals will be provided with vaccines as supply allows. 3/10

Update for June 16: We have adjusted our pop-up eligibility to include M1L, M3C and the Crescent Town community in the list of priority hot spots. More info: tehn.ca/VaccinePopUps Please read the flyer carefully for eligibility criteria. See this thread for answers to FAQ 1/10

A very exciting virtual field trip to an Amazon Fulfillment Centre today for our grade 4 and 5’s! We learned about how the robots move our packages and we even got to ride on a conveyor belt! @owenpublic @SmythCourtney1

Owen P.S. ESL students are creating and leading Virtual Friday Fun games for their classmates in their regular classrooms like “Wheel of Fortune” and “Turn Your Camera Off If...” It is truly amazing to see how confident they have become! @owenpublic @tdsb

Today we rode and reviewed some terrifying rollercoasters! S’s asked if they could take us to their countries and other places they’ve dreamed of exploring. Stay tuned to find out where they will take us on their student created virtual field trips! @tdsb @owenpublic

Finishing up our Magic Tree House book club discussions by creating our own Jamboard treehouse! Thank you @GiftedTawk ! @owenpublic @tdsb

@MrsHansenK Desk? Many elementary teachers don’t have desks in their classrooms because we never sit at them!

Elementary teachers: just so the people in the back can hear…how much time in the average day do you spend teaching from behind your desk (and thus within the line of sight of your school computer’s new webcam)? #Hybrid #onted

Elbow, elbow, knee, head...making patterns in gym class with our grocery bag balloons. @owenpublic @tdsb

@eatlivtravwrite Mitchell Field

Thank you @tdsb planning department for making this map for staff to easily understand whether they live or work in one of the @TOPublicHealth #hotspots. Call the Provincial Vaccine Info Line to book 1-888-999-6488 (TTY 1-866-797-0007) as there is no online booking.

@SarahEBurchell @CP24 @CityCynthia @ColinDMello @etfopresident Wheeeere?!?!!

Line started @ 4-5 am for this vax clinic opening at 9:30 am. This was ~ 1/5 of the line, 1 hr before opening. It’s my 2nd attempt bc they ran out yesterday. It’s my only option as a teacher in a hot zone. 1/2 @CP24 @CityCynthia @ColinDMello @etfopresident
