Yes, please join us this Thursday for #T2Tchat ! We’d love to welcome you into conversation with other awesome teachers!

The investment of time in classrooms talking with teachers & EAs helps you see & feel what is necessary in order to best support them and ultimately students. How would you truly know what’s happening unless you do spend time with the people in our care? #leadership

Grateful to have the opportunity to meet & listen to Karim Hachlaf at our final session of Building Your Leadership Capacity tonight as he shared his insights on guiding principles of #leadership & importance of #equity .

Participants reflected on learning from 5 previous sessions.

Started reading & enjoying How to Know a Person by David Brooks. I appreciate the descriptions of 2 types of people: diminishers & illuminators.

Affirms my passion for living my life as a heart-led illuminator. #uplifter ❤️

I have the book but this image is from Blinkist.

Interesting ASCD article about #equity in classroom conversations. Whose voices aren’t being heard?

How can this be applied during meetings, committee work, or PD opportunities where there is talk time allotted? How do we facilitate more equitable time to share ideas?

Educator Danny Steele knows that for #LifelongLearners , Ts never stop mattering.

To create a culture where innovation flourishes, we have to realize that, in many cases, we already have everything we need; we just need to figure out how to tap into it.

So grateful for my Principal and Vice-Principal on #NationalPVP day! We make such an incredible team at Kitchener Elementary Home of the hawks.

Thank you Dino Klarich G Hunter for your dedication, care, and hard work. Feeling blessed to be here working with wonderful staff, students & families! ❤️

Great strategies shared in your post, Darrin! I am grateful for your leadership and for sharing your ideas. Hope you are doing well, my friend! 🥰

Highly recommend this book even if you aren’t a principal or a principal yet. There are connections & strategies that can be made if you are a school leader or aspiring to be one. Powerful stories shared by not just George Couros & Allyson Apsey but others. #WhatMakesAGreatPrincipal

Dear Allyson & George, BIG congratulations! 🙌

I started joyfully devouring your new book yesterday & absolutely LOVE how it’s structured along with your messages & other voices that align with the 5 pillars. This book is so timely for me. ❤️ #grateful #WhatMakesAGreatPrincipal

Kids say the sweetest things! Walking down the hall with a student who needed a break. He points at a smiley face on a poster and says, “That reminds me of you.” 😊

Heart warmed instantly. ❤️

What are some things a student said that warmed your heart instantly?

Feeling grateful for the opportunity to participate in the Culturally Responsive SEL and Compassionate Systems Leadership Series offered by Burnaby Schools. Today is our last of 4 sessions.

One thing I’ve always appreciated are the learning opportunities offered by my district.

Happy Earth Day!

Braiding Sweetgrass by Robin Wall Kimmerer taught me to have the perspective that our earth loves us.

How does this change how we show gratitude for our relationship with nature & how we reciprocate that love? 🌎❤️ #responsibility
