Some ideas for finding #math all around us - outdoor learning, outdoor education, etc. A short two-minute video that can support meaningful experiences for students. Math is found in more than a textbook #edchat #hrcemath #onted #elemmathchat #education

I support #MikmaqRights If First Nation people were attacking white folks and burning their boats and property, this would be treated differently by the @rcmpgrcpolice and the media. #racism in Canada. @JustinTrudeau - protect the Mikmaq people.
