Decolonized research is rooted in relationships & acknowledges one's worldviews.

We never know what someone's journey is like by looking at them, whether it be the hardships or the beautiful diversity of someone's life.

This is exciting! Based on a great book series that shows kids that what people view as the "traditional" scientist is JUST NOT SO! #STEAM #girlsinscience #DesignThinking #blackscientists

Mindfulness strategies help students develop ways to cope with anger/fear... should be daily practice, & not simply reactive.
@ren_mann @Miss__Bee__ @alida_miele @tdsb_smoulton @reem_elyoussef
Students need to know what happens in their brains when they're angry or afraid. That context will help them choose mindfulness. edutopia.org/article/what-br…

Why do we need to slow down & reflect before we react to student 'behavior'?

As we consider #InclusiveDesign #UDL & #tier1 strategies, it is imp to remember that our classroom environment acts as the 3rd teacher... the walls must reflect our Ss, not overwhelm or erase them. @ren_mann @reem_elyoussef @ShelizaJamal @Nabiha_Rattansi

When I was introducing the green screen to my ss, I had a bias that they did not know what it was. "U mean like YouTube?" "To make fake videos?" Our ss R exposed to tech everywhere. This affirms the importance to teach ss how to leverage tech rather than restrict it. @malloy_john
