Can’t wait for the relaunch of “Me and My Sit Spot” by @lkmaclean on Nov 10! Sit spots is one of our fav routines. 🥰

Our teachers are exhausted. They continue to show up for our children no matter how many obstacles are thrown their way – uncertainty, high risk environments, emotionally dysregulated kids and parents. It’s a burnout like I’ve never seen in all my days.

So happy to receive a copy of @lkmaclean's first picture book. I have witnessed Lauren enact the sit spot practice with children as a way for them to connect to the outdoors. Ordering info available on her website soon: https://t.co/z90yFoh7Lp #bcedchat #sd38learn #BCreggiomath

To @hieu_fraser who wrote a special book called, The Little Girl. It brought up so many big connections and thinking. Beautiful book. Beautiful message. Beautiful author! (I asked my Ss if I can share his words and he was ecstatic)

and a quote from my 7 y.o student, “We need to think about the #215Indigenouschildren who didn’t survive in the residential school but also the children who survived bc they are suffering too. We have to think about every child who had to suffer because they are still hurting”.

Before reading @mflowrites book, I asked my gr. 1/2 Ss what they think “Stolen Words” mean? This is what they already know.

My students remember the Phyllis’ story and how she inspired Orange Shirt Day, when we learned about it in Sept. This week, we learned from the stories shared by residential school survivors and their families.

This week was hard. The news about the #215Indigenouschildren @ kamloops was a wake up call for me to do more as a settler and to learn more at becoming a better ally. This isn’t history. The trauma from res. schools are still affecting Indigenous families. 💔

But the most extraordinay speech came from my @ISGSenate colleague, Mary Jane McCallum, a residential school survivor, who was taken from her family at the age of 5. This is very hard to hear. Which is why you should hear it. #215children #SenCa #cdnpoli @SenateofCanada

This B.C. six-year-old's healing dance honours children who died at residential schools.

that snow geese story kills me lol @april_pikk @lkmaclean @cherleclerc

oh why, hello @lkmaclean & @april_pikk 😊😊😊

What can we learn from bird language? What connections can we make on how we communicate to our family and friends? Thank you @lkmaclean & Carly for sharing so many great ideas at your event. Cant wait for part 2!

Inspired by @lkmaclean and Carly, to listen closely and learn about bird calls. What do you think the birds are saying? What is the story behind the pictures?

Carly and I were overwhelmed with positive feedback about our first session - so we are offering another one! ⁦@april_pikk⁩ ⁦@jnovakowski38⁩ ⁦@AlanaTesan⁩ ⁦@KelliB12⁩ ⁦@ShBaatz⁩ ⁦@LoraSarchet⁩ ⁦@schnare_s⁩

Dawn chorus leading into the morning hustle of foraging for food and singing to companions. What can our local birds teach us about the place where we live? Join Carly and myself tomorrow from 3:15-4:15 to explore a few local birds! https://t.co/Q64zWaNANT
