Day 8 @TVDSBLiteracy I limited my TBR pile but these three books I’ve been constantly putting off. Is it March break yet? @AmyShamoon @Lori_Fowler24 @Westmount_ps

Day 7 @TVDSBLiteracy How I Resist is a wonderful book in my collection with several different voices and perspectives. Black Boy Joy is part of my TBR pile but so many great reviews from others on the impact this book can have. @Lori_Fowler24 @Westmount_ps @AmyShamoon

Day 6 @TVDSBLiteracy This book was recommended when I took a Summer learning conference. Several fantastic voices to start the conversation about our Mental Health @AmyShamoon @Lori_Fowler24 @Westmount_ps

Day 4 @TVDSBLiteracy “We are all Dots” and “Cannonball In” convey such powerful messages and themes. The characters in a tweet are not enough to speak about the impact these books have on my students:) @AmyShamoon @Lori_Fowler24 @Westmount_ps

Day 3 @TVDSBLiteracy On World Read Aloud Day, I had to go with the winner of our Read Aloud Madness bracket in March last year. Red is truly meant for all ages with such a powerful message. Heavily recommended for all! @AmyShamoon @Lori_Fowler24 @Westmount_ps

Day 2 @TVDSBLiteracy One of my favourite 🇨🇦 books still to this day is Shooter by Caroline Pignat. The beauty of recommending this book to students year after year and there is never any disappointment! @AmyShamoon @Lori_Fowler24

Where the heck are our leaders??? This is a crisis and no @fordnation @Sflecce @celliottability

My #OntEd prediction thread.... 1) Schools open on Jan. 5. 2) Ts go to school and do everything we can to keep our Ss safe (physically and mentally) 3) T or member of Ts household become symptomatic and T must isolate for 5 days (min.) 1/5
