My 10-year old came home with a pack of 5 rapid antigen tests. Of what use are these to her if none of her teachers have access to these for free? Someone please make it make sense..#FreeTheRATs for everyone.

I am the worst at taking a break before I hit rock bottom (i.e. illness, exhaustion and more). This year has been so challenging for educators. It's easier said than done but take those breaks! You can't pour from an empty tea pot.

Take a minute to read this account from an Ontario high school student from Peel about what their first day of school was like and then explain to me why we didn't require all kids to be vaccinated to attend school (via @bodger) https://t.co/rgBdycuxVb

A terrific, easy to understand breakdown of the 4 COVID19 vaccines available in Canada, and why the most effective of the four is the one you can get ASAP #ThisIsOurShot
Dr. Samir Gupta explains how the four COVID-19 vaccines now approved in Canada work and why efficacy rates aren’t the most important number to look at.

Tomorrow is #PinkShirtDay, and I love to refer to it as P.I.N.K. Shirt Day. Be Positive, Inclusive, Nurturing, and Kind whether in person or online. It’s an important year to learn about #digitalcitizenship, #cyberbullying and being vigilant to stop all forms of bullying.

Self-love is revolutionary. We cannot fight for others when we're fighting a war inside ourselves. Compassion is a power that we first bestow on ourselves & then give away through our actions—to people, to our planet. When we recognize this, that is when love becomes our legacy.

I've been fortunate to experience and facilitate visible random groups in my practicum placements so it was nice to dig into the research behind it all! I know it's a bit wordy but I think this infographic sums up why #visiblerandomgroups are awesome!

I started reading the book #makeitstick this week and I’m really enjoying it! I feel like it’s a good read no matter your age or profession. I'm making highlights posters for each chapter. Here are the first two! Thank you @Salomone_Math for lending me your copy of the book😊
