Listening to the profound storytelling of @KulyMarc at the @CouncilforIndig Manitoba PD day. Sharing stories of how indigenous children walk between two worlds and the power of schools in the life of a child.

This is such a wonderful article that shares what I have alway believed schools should be capturing when we report about students! You will always be so much more than a grade. I had never heard about UNESCO’s work on global competencies! So interesting! weforum.org/agenda/2020/12/h…

Trying to bring the joy of the season to school these past few weeks by initiating fun events. Hole in the window paintings,Xmas head wear day, teacher holiday design mask contest, cookie exchange, door decorating ,Christmas dress up days etc! Always best to smile and model joy!

It’s been a fun week at our international school where you get to experience the beautiful traditions of another culture- Deepavali! A parent email today “ May every aspect of your life become as luminous and exciting as the lights flickering on the Diwali lamps! Beautiful! 🙂

It’s a very different kind of Halloween this year all over the world! This was just shared with me and it has blown my mind! We alllllllllll grew up saying “ Halloween Apples!” I just thought everyone said it! 🙂 I love the prairies! 🎃 pca.st/yy7scdm3?fbclid=IwAR3…

If at first you don’t succeed, you're in luck. Effortless excellence is a lousy teacher and a fickle friend. The achievements we savor most start with a struggle and end with hard-earned mastery. Success is sweeter—and more repeatable—if it's the product of deliberate practice.

Very mindful of how people are managing these days. I thought some of these questions were so good! Take good care of each other!

Challenged by keynote Graham Brown-Martin on leading innovation in a time of change. Loved his thinking of “Automate the work - Humanize the jobs. The goal is to not replace teachers with AI so as not to have “weapons of mass instruction” Teaching is uniquely human! #elc2019kk

The first day of school! Students arrive today! Last night it occured to me that this was my 49th “first day of school!” 32 as an educator! I’ve either attended or worked at 8 schools across three countries! Best wishes to all Educators starting today! Go be awesome!

I think I would like to make this my goal for 2019! #abetterme
"We work hard, play hard" sounds terribly unhealthy. I think we would all be a lot healthier, happier and find greater balance in our lives if we learn to work smart and play always. #worksmartplayalways
