Today QVPS celebrated our Reaching Forward Tutors. We started with an assembly where we enjoyed a presentation showing the growth in Reading from Sept to June. Our tutors were then treated to a delicious lunch. Thankyou TLDSB for this program! @QueenVic_PS @CurriculumTldsb

Now that we know, what do we need to change in tier 1 instructional practices to meet the needs of ALL learners?

Punishing kids with ADHD for having ADHD makes less sense than giving kids strategies. We must first understand the behaviors. 📷 ADDitude Magazine

Fantastic! What a brilliant way to get our elementary students excited about the choices, opportunities and pathways secondary has to offer. Bravo!

This was excellent PD!
I highly recommend it and can’t wait for the next one.
I’m looking forward to trying Elkonin boxes with our QVPS students and my own kids.
Amazing work team!

Tonight we had a great response to the CKL Foundations of Reading Series Part 1. What a fantastic group of dedicated educators who wanted to learn the Science behind the Science of Reading. Thank you to everyone who came out! We look forward to session #2! @CurriculumTldsb

One of the most impactful moments was seeing this slide, while hearing Dr. Lane remind us to make the most of every minute. Seemingly small chunks of time rapidly add up (more exposures), or if we’re not careful, disappear into dust.

I walked again today. Only this time I walked twice as far.
Not today ALS. Definitely not today.

Today the amazing staff at @QueenVic_PS dove into their Van de Walle textbooks to read about different Tools of Assessment. Each team of educators were challenged to summarize the tool and think about if it would be helpful during their upcoming March S&S Unit. @CurriculumTldsb

@CalliCraft @SchoolsCubedLLC I participated in the Zoom meeting today featuring @SchoolsCubedLLC re: the science of school leadership. It was excellent. Looking forward to giving it another listen and digging into the recommended grade 3-6 decodable readers.
