Putting out a call to Calgary teachers. Want a free virtual author visit or writing workshop? There are bursaries you can use between now and the end of the year. If you want something for this spring or fall, give me a shout and I'll connect you with the bursary folks.

Been reflecting on the notion of positionality & privilege in K-12 classrooms. As teachers it is critical that we are reflecting on our own positionality and the impact it might have in our classrooms. What are you bringing into your classroom that might impact the learning?

In my opinion, this is one of the most spectacular images from the Cassini mission. It is a close-up of the edge of Saturn's B ring, and shows shadows on the rings from tall structures in the rings! solarsystem.nasa.gov/resourc…

I recently came across data on who we spend our time with over the course of our lives. The insights are simultaneously inspiring and depressing. Here are 6 graphs everyone needs to see:

Dear new teacher, You do not need a teacher tiktok, IG, and Twitter. You do not need to open a TPT store. You do not need a specialized handshake for each student or a song and dance for each lesson.+
