Please don't remove students from physical education, music, Arts, or other classes to remediate them in other areas. These classes are just as important for overall education and may be their favorite classes and one reason they like school.

I’ve known @abdaniellesmith for a long time. We were both opposition leaders in #ableg. I debated her many times. She has ALWAYS been about privatizing health care. It’s her passion and her priority. Anyone who believes she’s changed her tune now is being played for a sucker.

Classrooms are overflowing and students can’t get the support and education they deserve. This is disastrous for the future of our children—and our province. Pledge to vote for candidates that will step up for public education: standforeducation.ca/pledge-…

Don’t be fooled by the stories told by politicians. Alberta is spending less on public education per student than any other province in Canada.

Hot take:
If you view assessments results as just grades to give students instead of feedback for how well you provided learning, you're probably doing it wrong.
That is all.

If someone has the courage to admit they were wrong, you should have the grace to give them credit for admitting it. Rubbing it in encourages them to never admit being wrong again.

When Tier 1 is weak, lots of students look like they need intervention.
When Tier 2 is weak, lots of students look like they need Tier 3 or special education.
Strong investments in Tier 1 & Tier 2 is a critical starting place for prevention.
Access gaps = outcome gaps.
SO excited to be learning from the brilliant @DaniMationEnt this morning at #caseconf with @childrensautism! What an important and powerful message! #presumecompetence

Vonnegut's reflection is a breath of fresh air in an achievement-crazy culture - and particularly welcome in contrast to the grit mindset that says kids must stick with one thing until they master it (even if joylessly) rather than sampling a broad range of experiences.

Sitting in on a law school class on civil procedure recently offered fresh confirmation of a distinction I've been thinking and writing about for some time: Academically rigorous and intellectually engaging are two very different things.

The learning process isn't finished when you acquire knowledge. It's complete when you consistently apply that knowledge.
Many people accumulate information. Far fewer use it to evolve and improve.
The ultimate test of growth is closing the gap between awareness and action.

Refusing to call a by-election in Calgary-Elbow, when Elections Alberta is already running one in Medicine Hat, is literally the UCP saying that people who might not vote UCP don’t deserve elected representation.
Democracy for those with the “right opinions.” #AbLeg

THREAD - @ABDanielleSmith has said the Sovereignty Act will be her first piece of legislation as premier and will give her government the ability to ignore federal laws. You can't ignore federal laws with the stroke of a pen.
This simply isn’t true. 1/9
