It is official! I really am running for school trustee this term. Can’t believe it! So exciting and so unknown! Our children’s education is very important to me. Having been working in the schools for 28 years I am excited about putting my knowledge to a different use!

Tinker Tales Session #1 was amazing. My highlight was all the engagement and critical/creative thinking that was happening! Kindergarten said “Look at all my thinking!” #sd79learn @MsbcLee @debbiemah @Rodroad219 @SKoers1

Self-Reggers, I pose this question to you: how can we soothe children during the period of "co-regulation"? #SelfReg

This is fascinating. I wonder what the parallels are for unleashing a group of status quo rejecting educators into schools? #TeacherMyth xitter.cf/googlefacts/status/924…
