My reading goal this year is 15 books. I’ve already read 18 and 1/2 of 2 books. I’m not putting pressure on what I’m reading (so it’s all the romance) and I’m not forcing myself to read something I can’t get into. It’s been refreshing!

@mylifeinaword Right? And I wear through them like nobodies business.
My heating pad wasn’t working in the middle of the night last night. This is a problem since I’m in the middle of a flare up (“probable” endo). I run through heating pads every couple years. It works now, but now I’m wondering if I should have a backup…
@mcbeatke @BedJetSleep I had never heard of this! I think I need this! Thank you!

Here’s the truth about the education crisis, straight from educators and parents. Share this video to make sure candidates in our upcoming election commit to public education. #StandForEducation
@ajennwithtwons @charliemackesy @Lakeviewleth They really are! I feel like nothing quite captures how amazing they are in real life
We took a quote from @charliemackesy book from Mole about cake in my 3rd grade class and made paper mache cakes for @Lakeviewleth to enjoy. The kids did fabulous. Pictures don’t do it justice.
@freakindelight @DEHRtoCare We also made paper mache cakes over the past few weeks. We do and talk about all the things in here 🤣
This is how you know you teach kids about the brain a lot. We are prepping for our @DEHRtoCare gala and talking about resilience. One of my grade 3s said “resilience is when your prefrontal cortex controls your reactions to emotions, not your amygdala” 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
We teach our students to name it to tame it. We teach that it’s okay to feel. But we don’t often extend the same grace to ourselves (even though it’s necessary work)
Emotions are unavoidable. Like it or not, they’re part of this “being a human” deal. It’s what we do with them that really matters. Here are 4 ways to better understand your emotions – it’s not always easy and it’s never perfect– but it’s a good start.

You have 2.5 hours left! Don’t forget to vote Alberta teachers!
🗳️ PEC elections for president, vice president and district representative end tomorrow at 5pm. Vote now! ➡️ bit.ly/PEcV0tE #abed #2023PECElection

This announcement barely brings funding back to pre-pandemic levels! It DOESN’T account for the massive influx of students seen in the past 4yrs or the massive increase in classroom complexity. Not to mention to the desperate need to build actual schools. #ableg #abed
Budget 2023 provides more than $820 million over the next 3 years to support enrolment growth in schools. This strong funding commitment will empower school authorities to hire more teachers & obtain more resources for students. 1/2
The University of Minnesota has a whole executive function lab and studying there may be a new dream/goal of mine…
Watching kids go from not knowing letters to starting to read gives me goosebumps every time
