Katie O'Hearn- HRCE Literacy

Not even a month into school and this grade primary student ⁦@SJAMschool⁩ has so much under control in reading already! ⁦@HRCE_NS⁩ ⁦@HrceLiteracy⁩ ⁦@SJAMschool⁩

Very proud of Bee; a grade 10 student at @JLIlsleyHS

Many have made sacrifices during this first year of the pandemic. This 16-year-old stayed away from her friends, so she could keep serving food at a Halifax nursing home. Today she’s proud to get her second COVID vaccination. Meet this caring long-term care worker on @CBCNS at 6

Calling all educational leaders to make this their goal! Becoming an anti-racist means moving from your fear zone, acknowledging your own thinking, learn more, and become better!

Calling all educational leaders to break the silence on matters that are harming Black children. Thank you @MichelleObama

Why do children need to record how long they read for? Do adults? It can make reading seem like a task someone has made you do rather than enjoying it for all it offers. Ditching the Reading Logs edutopia.org/article/ditchi… @edutopia

Partner reading is a great way to encourage children to talk about their books! Today the children in Primary Higgins learned about partner reading! #seewhatimlearning @HrceLiteracy @HRCE_Official @WmountElem

Wait time and giving students time to problem solve is so important! There’s some fantastic reading happening in Primary Gibson 😀 @HrceLiteracy @WmountElem #seewhatimlearning
