“As a mom, I’m struggling to hold it together,” said mother Shannon Scott, who is now paying out of pocket following three days of motel stays covered by the Red Cross. “I’m out of funds now; I don’t have that amount of money to keep paying.” #KFLA #YGK kingstonist.com/news/napanee…

If you've read any of my tweets about comprehension lately, you know it's something that I continue to learn (and unlearn what I thought I knew!) a lot about. These first 2 episodes are a lovely easing into some pretty big shifts around how we understand + teach comprehension. ⤵️
Our new #KnowledgeMatters Podcast is live! Listen to Episodes 1 and 2 of Reading Comprehension Revisited now: knowledgematterscampaign.org… @natwexler speaks with @CattsHugh @drgoffney @pentucketteach @kyairb @jschimank @holly_stripling @Deloris83818301 & more.

Eid al-Adha is a significant annual Islamic observance for many Muslims in Canada. It is also known as the Feast of Sacrifice or Festival of Sacrifice as it commemorates Ibrahim’s (Abraham) willingness to sacrifice his son to God.

Teachers and school staff deserve every display of appreciation we can give. What they likely don't need is another mug. 😆 Why not make a donation in honour of a special school staff and e-mail them a card right from our website? foodsharingproject.org/donat… @LDSBPIC @unitedwaykfla

A beautiful bulletin board created by the @RGSinclairPS Justice, Equity, Diversity, and Inclusion (JEDI) team. Look closely at some of the butterflies to see inspiring words that students will be adding to this month.
