Thank you to @cldleadership.bsky.social for holding space today for sharing, learning and listening! I was honored to share some of the stories and our learning from a current research project that weaves together 3 themes that I value and believe are essential in our educational systems.

What is more quintessentially summer than reading outside? We are fortunate to have forest and shade close by. #literacy #summerlearning #kidlit #summerreads

Today’s adventure in summer literacy was all about visualizing! Describing the setting, using our sense to imagine what we would see? Hear? Smell? Touch? Can you guess which books we are reading by these illustrations of the setting? #literacy #summerlearning #litcircles #kidlit

Adventures in summer #literacy! I’m working with a fantastic group of young people, we created a charter based on how they want to feel during #summerlearning they generated questions to help pick a good book, and then we did a #booktasting to find a few good books for each of them! #kidlit #reading

Blessed to have to the opportunity to return to Whitehorse last week. Time to listen, learn alongside wise elders, and hear stories across diverse perspectives. #grateful #heartfull #generativeconversations

Grateful for the intentional space that was held for learning and generative discourse. And for the many new connections with scholars and practitioners and the possibilities of future conversations.

And that’s a wrap on an amazing trip - Whitehorse, the traditional and current lands of Ta'an Kwäch'än Council and the Kwanlin Dün First Nation. The warmth and welcome of the many people I met… the stories I heard… and those I learned alongside… feeling grateful and blessed!

So powerful! I hope they post the video. Worth listening! Dr. ABC posed the question "who are you without colonialism?"

"... we have to continue disrupting deficit thinking...

Some may also have experienced being invited to sit at the table but then when the lunch is over, everyone goes on their way and an individual may not be included for the rest of the day or beyond.

What do you need to feel like you genuinely belong?

Trying on Flourishing for my 2025 #OneWord Or maybe another word will find me in the coming days. Either way, I’m choosing to embrace what’s ahead with openness, trusting that there’s room to grow in beautiful new ways. learningandunlearning.edublogs.org/2025/01/01/o...

Last class we continued 2 have student-led #InclusiveWelcome & #IntentionalClose & a powerful circle reflecting on #PaperTigers to wrap up. Each table group came up with a one sentence definition for #inclusion w/out ChatGPT this time #teachereducation #inclusiveeducation #SEL

Blessed to have had the opportunity to listen to Tyrone & Lyndon Brown today. Powerful message they shared today with their mom as a communication partner. So many thoughts about how we story students…. But that’s for another post on another day.
