Think meaning of fractions and measurement. What's happening in this picture? Students are folding fractions and labeling. Why the different label placement? #MTBoS #ITeachMath #MathIsFigureOutAble #Elemmathchat #MSmathchat

This is the most ridiculous math video I've made but I hope it's still good 😅 Tired of "borrowing" when subtracting? Never "borrow" when subtracting with this one method.

When we push emotions aside, they have a way of boiling up, until you start to accept those “bad” emotions as truth. When ignored, they get hotter and louder and they bubble over. Big emotions need a seat at the table.

Today is the #InternationalDayoftheGirl to recognize girls’ rights & the unique challenges they face around the world. The day seeks to address challenges, promote empowerment and ensure their basic human rights, including education.

Making mental health & well-being for all a global priority also means making mental health a priority for yourself. For #WorldMentalHealthDay to fall on a holiday in Ontario seems likes a recipe for self-care. How are you caring for your mental health today?

Thanksgiving is magic. A whole day dedicated to the thing we all need a little more of in our lives – gratitude. If you’re feeling like the chaos is taking over, I recommend you wiggle your toes and read on for some ways to focus on the ‘tude.

LGBTQ2S+ is an acronym for lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer and two-spirit. The + stands for other ways individuals express their gender & sexuality outside heteronormativity & the gender binary. 🏳️‍🌈
