Health Canada has announced that they will begin banning the sale of all health supplements and vitamins and minerals within Canada.
Perfectly normal in a free, democratic country.

Super excited to help out on this cool project with Mrs Burns and Mrs Goodman @TyendinagaPS! Looks like everyone had fun (and hopefully spurred on some discussions about manufacturing 😁)

This girl spent ALL summer on this sign. Yes it lights up! Disappointed @Marner93 isn’t here…was willing to trade her sign (and skittles) for a selfie. Go Leafs Go! @TorontoMarlies @quintenews @InQuinteNews @SportsNet1 @MapleLeafs

Last year I began exploring and trying various social emotional learning “programs”. I stumbled upon this one for k-3. It has some great pieces.

Yes! I have struggled with the idea that we can teach reading comprehension by putting it into teachable “compartments”; that standardized assessments can accurately assess skill level. Beginning to listen to my intuition and shift my practices has been my best teaching move!

Lots of teachers will be thinking about the teaching of reading comprehension soon. This blog from a little while ago might be useful: primarycolour.home.blog/2022…

This is a huge accomplishment for this young man! I couldn’t be prouder of him and his teacher, whom I have had the pleasure of watching invest countless hours into prep and planning to support this outcome. Congrats Ian and Mr. Burns @BSSEngineering @HPEschools
