Very impressed with Ms. Vitale's grade 5s today! They listened super attentively to chapters 9-10 of our @ForestofReading read aloud "The Legendary Mo Seto" by @AYChanWrites. Then they built these amazing #steam creations! Great end to the school day! @StGregoryHCDSB

Why are kids not reading for pleasure as much anymore? Are there just too many distractions in their lives/in the world? 😭 And what can we do about this? theguardian.com/books/2024/n… #reading #kidlit #childrensbooks

Report finds ‘shocking and dispiriting’ fall in children reading for pleasure

National Literacy Trust finds only 35% of eight to 18-year-olds enjoy reading in their spare time, a sharp drop on last year to the lowest figure yet recorded

Sometimes it seems like everyone makes posting on social media look so easy and effortless while I'm over here wrapped in confusion and doubt. I'm kinda relieved it's not just me...😅 #socialmedia #instagram #anxiety stylist.co.uk/health/mental-…

Social media anxiety: why we feel fear posting on Instagram

Do you ever feel an overwhelming sense of nervousness when you got to post on Instagram? Psychologists explain why the app makes us feel this way and how to cope.

Dear introverts, I just popped on here to say this: It’s okay to be quiet, feel too much, or need time alone. Your quiet strength is powerful 💜🌿 #Introverts #HighlySensitivePerson
