@MarinersStore @TMobilePark @Mariners This is the one I’m most intrigued by… @mariners star and trident? By far my fave logo of all time… 🤩

Here’s a sneak peek of the second release in our EXCLUSIVE 50 Seasons Cap Collection 👀 The ‘80’s cap drops this Saturday, 5/23 at our @TMobilePark Team Store

@leeannjung Welcome to Canadas pacific south coast / just a few hours north and one more ferry and you’re in my neighbourhood!!!

We worked on universally designing units last week at Glenlyon Norfolk in Victoria, BC. What a lovely faculty! But I'm not sure how students focus on the classroom when their surroundings are as beautiful as this. #LeadInclusion #UDL #education

@VictoriaTheTech “Leaving ceremonies” in our district… Ks & 7s (our Provincial Online Learning School is k-12 so no ceremonies until graduation…) 🍿 🥤

It’s that time of year when many of the education forums that I’m a part of get all up in arms and start fighting about whether kindergarteners, fifth graders, and eighth graders get a “graduation” versus a “promotion ceremony” so let me get my popcorn ready. 🍿

@marktilbury True - I never learned/taught how to shift my income and hide finances via offshore and other means of the 1% Credit scores started in 1989 & perpetuate bias (good teachable) Not many have generational wealth for investing when food and housing securities are higher priority.,,

School taught you algebra, but not how to do your taxes. You analyzed Shakespeare, but never learned how credit scores work. You studied Pythagoras, but skipped how to invest. You practiced handwriting, but no one shows you how to sign a contract. You memorized important dates, but never learned how to negotiate your worth. Learn what they didn't teach you or keep playing someone else's

#bowtieTuesday our school #comicCon week - celebrating all the “new media” we should be talking more about in school! (And part of a healthy balanced literary diet) comics; graphic novels; video games; animations; etc

@KevinRickard4 @EmilySm43 Also depends to what degree ‘financial literacy’ should mean… why to avoid payday loans and the lottery? How to change your salary structure to avoid paying taxes as the elite can? When it makes sense to mortgage vs have generational wealth redistributed… oops, that’s civics😇

@EmilySm43 There’s about 100 topics everyone thinks should be mandatory. No. It should be an elective.

Agree or disagree??

Everyone deserves safety, dignity, and freedom. Today and always, we work toward a country where 2SLGBTQI+ communities can live openly and authentically – free from discrimination, hate, and violence – because a Canada for all is a Canada without hate.

May 17: International Day Against Homophobia, Transphobia and Biohobia (and Aphobia as I see a lot of pushes against asexuality) Make good choices and support all the peoples in our neighbourhoods

Today is the International Day against Homophobia, Biphobia, Intersexism and Transphobia.

@angeladuckw @DavidBrooks224 I really like your writing, but my prethink on this isn’t great… each Depends on 1. housing security 2. postal code 3. family connections 4. exposure and geography (and access to community - often found w online supports) Curious to see where this goes in my September reading…

Ten years ago, I published Grit. In those pages, I wrote down everything I’d discovered about world-class achievers and how passion and perseverance set them apart. Since then I’ve been studying the situations that make world-class achievement possible. My research shows that the situation shapes you—but you have the power to shape it first. How? 1. Set up your personal space. 2. Pick your peers. 3. Attract mentors. 4. Choose your culture. Getting situated means finding the people and places that bring out your best. Grit is great, but to realize your potential, you also need to get situated. Pre-order Situated. Out September 1st. a.co/d/05PbeMi6

We have always existed…and always will.

@Jordan_C_Adams If you’re limiting yourself to text only literacies, you (and your reading lists) are excluding some amazing literature experiences and amazing written voices. One day Dogman may be reflected on in the same way we look back at Dickens, Shakespeare and Chaucer (for the masses)

@Jordan_C_Adams Graphic novel versions take text in new directions (Watership Down); originals like Ducks are hard hitting; Opting Out helps middle years students see themselves AND others building empathy; and so many fabulous stories (and more unique words) come from comics/graphics…

Graphic novels are not novels; they're glorified comic books. They don't belong in an official curriculum or school-required reading list.

@KatieNovakUDL love that your work on UDL got a big shoutout and share at our school Pro-D session!! ❤️🧡🖤

Don’t love the name @SIRIUSXM but Mom Jeans radio (xtra channel 300) has been on all day in my office…

I do like that today’s #moosehide campaign themed bow tie has led to some impromptu discussions in our learning commons today! Blog: technolandy.com/2026/05/14/day…

@CatherineCook58 @jean_twenge @alexanderrusso My new learning is also to be more aware of the different ways brains process text - as librarian I too often said “creates a picture/movie in your minds” but - not for all. Some brain processes text in many other ways too. Got a session in our school comic con on this next week

@technolandy @jean_twenge @alexanderrusso As a Teacher Librarian and first grade teacher, the way we’ve been teaching beginning readers is very much at fault. I was trained in Reading Recovery and it is not effective for teaching reading.

Reading scores, 3rd graders to 8th graders, 2015 to 2025. This is a national tragedy.

@CatherineCook58 @jean_twenge @alexanderrusso No… it’s not… I got training in that too, but after my Whole Language instructor led us to an integrated process (explicit instruction, phonics, context, joy, etc) where “it depends on the learned”. RR is for intervention after, not instruction for…

@CatherineCook58 @jean_twenge @alexanderrusso As a teacher librarian (even as principal librarian) during much of that era… I am very aware… I can’t help but ponder a connection with a change in reading patterns…

@technolandy @jean_twenge @alexanderrusso In BC, Teacher Librarian positions have been cut relentlessly every time there's a deficit and many TLs have been used as prep teachers instead.
