Grateful to Sandra Mirabelli for leading #TDSB educators through microsessions on explicit vocabulary instruction in the content areas. We unpacked and clustered curriculum expectations, explored the research, and tried out rich and engaging activities to support student achievement in literacy.

Reflecting on the incredible work of the #TDSB Middle Years Digital Storytelling initiative with Apple. From drawing and video creation to interactive digital storytelling, teachers are discovering powerful ways to help students communicate their ideas with authenticity, creativity, and confidence.

How can we co-create learning experiences with students to explore their identities as readers, writers, and communicators? Grateful to the amazing @shawnacoppola.bsky.social for guiding TDSB educators on how to teach writing through inquiry. So many great ideas educators can implement right away!

How are students' identities welcomed not only in the mentor texts they read but into what they write? How are students’ voices both revealed and centered in what they write? Grateful to @triciaebarvia.bsky.social for leading TDSB Beginning Teachers & Mentors through this transformative learning!

Really enjoyed our last TDSB Literacy Lead Network meeting! We explored leadership moves, learned about inquiry-based learning, led a classroom idea exchange, & participated in a design sprint to support educators across the system with curriculum and strengthening instructional practices.

With our partners at Apple, @jasontries.bsky.social and I co-led the 2nd session of the Mobile Assessment Practices series. Beginning Teachers & their Mentors deepened their understanding of assessment for/as learning by using their iPads to capture & interpret observations of student learning.
