You always hope when you watch a show religiously that the cast are just as funny and wonderful in real life. Today they proved they are! So thankful for the opportunity! Please keep 'em coming! @LorneCardinal @BrentButt @cocokoslo @TSpencerNairn @nancyRtweets @CornerGas

This summer, teachers have been asking where they can find FREE training and information on the #ScienceOfReading. Last summer, I created my Top5 Book, Article, Podcast and Webinar Recommendations. This summer, I’ve updated it with some brand new books, webinars, podcasts, such as @IDA_Ontario Reading Road Trip, and free courses, such as @ReallyGreatRead and @coursera! Learning doesn’t have to be difficult! Make it fun, learn with a friend, and always keep in mind our students who need this the most💙

A new desk buddy appeared today! A coworker made me a Blues Brothers themed duck carrying a Trumpet since that's my instrument! You can bet my students will be getting a very niche, nerdy, movie specific lesson tomorrow! 🎶 @dan_aykroyd

One of the most frustrating parts of being a teacher is hearing non-educators debate the operation of educational systems. I’ve been on an airplane before, but certainly won’t debate the pilot on how to operate one.

If you’re an educator, this 🎟️ is your anti-ableist permission slip allowing you to grant accommodations to any student who requests them, regardless of institutional policy, because access should never be gatekept & classes should never be governed by carceral, punitive logics.

"Tonight, Borje has come home." 💙 A beautiful and well-deserved moment for Borje Salming, as the @MapleLeafs honoured him prior to tonight's game against Vancouver.

FYI @fordnation - we are one of the biggest private sector unions in the province, and NO, we do not have a “good relationship.” We are with @CUPEOntario @cupenat #39kIsNotEnough #ONLab

Dear Ontario Teachers, I stand by you, and support you 💯. Teachers spend 30 hrs a week w our children, some w 30+ students in those classrooms! They are teaching our kids and crucial to their development- @fordnation gov’t w @Sflecce are gleefully decimating public education

I was thrown out of the legislature today as I stood up for the rights of workers, human rights, Charter rights and for the amazing members of @osbcucscso. Ford and Lecce have picked the wrong fight. We are all with you. Solidarity! #onpoli

Thanks to St. George’s Church for paying tribute to our frontline EMS members for all they continue to do in serving #Guelph! And for pausing to reflect on #Remember911. Thank you @GuelphPolice, @GuelphFire, @GWParamedic, frontline & healthcare staff for all you do.

When Ontario hospitals become even more understaffed and overwhelmed this fall and we can’t access the care we need we should all just be grateful we got that license plate sticker money back before the election.

I'll never buy @nonamebrands Graham cracker pie crusts ever again.The stickers take surgeon level accuracy to remove without missing pieces and leave the words on the part of the lid that needs to touch the food. @PresChoice take a note from Keebler and make these lids usable!
