Learning Forward Ontario would like to thank our learning and leading colleague, Heather Willms for her insight and collaboration in our recent two part series focused on Junior/Intermediate literacy. Remember, you can check out the LFO Events page to watch for coming events.
🎉 Had a blast with brilliant #TDSB educators participating in the Middle Years Digital Literacy App Dev project.

Shoutout to #AppleEducation, #CareerEducationCouncil, and the TDSB Global Competencies, STEM/ICT department for making this project happen!
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!

How can we create writing spaces and places where students can express themselves and make something beautiful?

This is the essential question that #TDSB Beginning Teachers and their Mentors have begun to explore in a professional learning series led by the incredible @triciaebarvia.bsky.social

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.
@jasontries.bsky.social & I had a great time launching the Middle Years Digital Media Literacy Project with Apple Education & the Career Education Council.

Students will develop transferable skills & digital media literacy through the use of iPads, which culminates with an App Development project.

Can't wait to work with teachers on co-creating broad and narrow inquiries to support student learning. #edusky
Haha not gonna give up! I promise
In our follow-up conversation today, teachers shared how they have been using strategies from @triciaebarvia.bsky.social's amazing session and book and discussed evidence of impact on student learning.

We also talked about how they could support colleagues in their school to try one idea!
