I don’t know if I’m having an existential crisis but teaching during COVID has made me question everything. Why do we grade? Why can’t it be pass:fail? Isn’t now the perfect time for that cultural shift? - an anonymous teacher

@OCDSB Who do I need to contact?

@OCDSB I’ve registered my daughter in OCV elementary but she’s been registered in her home school. I didn’t choose in person so I’m not sending her to school. I keep calling the home school but still didn’t get an answer. My daughter missed a week of school and I’m not sure what to do!!

You're not grading assignments. You're collecting evidence to determine student progress and pointing them towards their next steps. Make the mental switch. It matters.

In life, a lot of us are looking for that desk furthest from the teacher in the school of life. We are hoping that we can hide in the back and never got called on. While that will work for a little bit, mark my word, they will call on you! Life has a great way of exposing us all.

This surveillance camera captured additional footage of George Floyd’s fatal arrest

Last night, my daughters asked to talk about the death of George Floyd. We had another emotional conversation about racism. It does seem hopeless based on what they see/read/hear, but we (the parents/educators) must be the voice of change and hope.

I shared some of my favorite mental strength exercises with the @CFAinstitute. If you missed it, you can catch it here annual.cfainstitute.org/2020/05/20/amy…
