Professional Development Minutes

I acknowledge  that the land I live on is the traditional territories of the Mississaugas of the Credit First Nation and the Mississauga and Chippewa Nations of the Williams Treaty.  I recognize that  forced residential schooling has caused  intergenerational trauma and  emotional and physical pain for Indigenous Peoples in Canada. I value and respect Indigenous pedagogies and epistemologies. 

The weather was gorgeous today. Thanks, Mother Nature! So, this afternoon I biked around my neighbourhood and dropped off some books to the   Little Free Library . Bike riding and donating is the best combination!  "Book donations"

Tell me about your day: 1. One thing that surprised you.  2. One thing that made you happy or sad.  3. One thing you wanted to do, but didn't.  "A scene from my travels"
