Remembrance Day
Today is Remembrance Day in Canada. I would like to all of Canada's past, present and future military personnel as well as Canada's Allies who have served to keep Freedom alive. I cringe when I think what may have been if it had not been for your bravery and sacrifice.
At 11:00 I will be quietly standing to honour you. Lest We Forget.

I’ve come to a frightening conclusion that I am the decisive element in the classroom. It’s my personal approach that creates the climate. It’s my daily mood that makes the weather. As a teacher, I possess a tremendous power to make a child’s life miserable or joyous. I can be a tool of torture or an instrument of inspiration. I can humiliate or heal. In all situations, it is my response that decides whether a crisis will be escalated or de-escalated and a child humanized or dehumanized.
