Having a great time doing some BEDMAS work today with Mrs. Huff! @tvdsbmathk8

Solutions: - Return BEd program to 1 year - Return to a system that deals with violence in schools - Shrink the salary grid - Re-Centre the system where teachers are the experts. - Provide resources - Shrink bureaucracy & reallocate staff into schools to support student learning.

We had an amazing morning of learning at The Wormery! Thank you Ms. Cardy DCST for co-planning this STEM activity with me. Thanks also to Dan, Will and Dan from the Wormery for teaching us so much. @aldboroughps @tvdsb @theGroveWFD

It’s math carousel day! Lots of great work with square roots and exponents happening here. @tvdsbmathk8

Doing some great work with factors, prime and composite numbers today wth the “Tax Person” activity. Thanks for the visit Mrs. Cardy! @AldboroughPs @tvdsbmathk8

Building skyscrapers today with Mrs Cardy in grade 6/7 to do some critical thinking. @tvdsbmathk8

In this time of emboldened 2SLGBTQ+ hate, let us stand together against transphobia and homophobia and protect those who are targets of bigotry and discrimination. #onted we must act to ensure all students feel safe and included. ETFO STATEMENT etfo.ca/news-publicati… #onpoli

Chronic underfunding hurts kids, particularly those with special education needs. The Ford government must do better for students. #onted thetrillium.ca/news/education…

It's absolutely wild that teachers have to fight tooth and nail against the government and boards of education just to secure improvements for students! #onted #cdned #edchat

@amandalynnj12 Glad you are okay!

Day 1 of summer vacation: Almost died 😬. Hopefully, it can only go up from here.

Ford's latest scheme takes millions out of schools to send families $50/year for private tutoring. Worse still: they're wasting big $$ on a glossy new ad campaign. It's time to prioritize public education over self-promotion. #onted #onpoli

Making someone feel seen, heard, and understood is something educators do daily, yet it is something I've never seen this ON government do with educators. #onted

On the first full day of this new parliament, Ford and his health minister went from denying the health care crisis to finally admitting that they're prepared to use it to make the case for privatization. The threat is real and we need to stop it in its tracks. #onpoli

This is where we are in Ontario Education: Minister plans a media event where he crosses numerous boundaries. Soon after Conservative MPPs share an infographic trumpeting the government’s so-called ‘plan’ for education. Infographic misspells the word education. 🤦‍♂️

New report from @PeopleForEd confirms major mental health crisis in our schools. In #TVDSB, staff mental health leaves have skyrocketed & student mental health needs are 4x greater than pre-COVID. The Ford govt must stop ignoring school mental health needs #ONPoli #OntEd #LdnOnt

Can't Believe this Ridiculous testing is still there anyway? Waterloo school board wants to pause EQAO testing, saying students are stressed enough | CBC News cbc.ca/news/canada/ki…

Having fun dreidel racing this am on the final day of Tweetmaths. Happy holidays everyone! @AldboroughPs @tvdsbmathk8 @Hoog_Ash

Pentomino present packing with manipulatives today for Tweetmaths. @tvdsbmathk8 @Hoog_Ash @AldboroughPs

Doing some “real life” math in 6P @AldboroughPs with @Hoog_Ash. We are learning a lot with this “Game of Life” project. Thanks for sharing @SarahBurley7! #financialliteracy

Another fun morning of Tweetmath. We had some good discussion about possible number sentences and lots of strategies for calculating the total cost. @tvdsbmathk8 @Hoog_Ash
