S2 E19 Re-opening the Elementary LLC

Co-host Beth Lyons welcomes three teacher-librarians from the TDSB to talk about the closures/reductions/limitations that were in place in the LLC last year and how the LLC re-opened for students this year. The panel discussed what they are noticing or wondering as students return to the LLC and how that has impacted their goals or plans for this year. (This was recorded in November of 2021 and some of the protocols and policies may have changed in the interim.)<br /><br />Guests- <br />Diana Maliszewski<br />Role: K-8 TDSB teacher-librarian<br />Twitter: @MzMollyTL<br /><br />Lisa Lewis<br />Role: K-6 TDSB teacher-librarian (.5) + Core French (.5)<br />Twitter: @MmeLisa_Lewis<br /><br />Valia Reinsalu<br />Role: K-8 TDSB teacher-librarian (.5) JK-8 + Intermediate Resource (inclusion teacher) 7&8<br />Twitter: @valiareinsalu<br /><br />Texts mentioned in this episode:<br />Culturally Responsive Teaching and the Brain by Zaretta Hammond<br />Is Everyone Really Equal? by Ozlem Sensoy<br />Cultivating Genius by Gholdy Muhammad <br />Like a Duck by Deborah Kerbell<br />Open by Andre Agassi<br />Taste: My Life Through Food by Stanley Tucci<br />White Tears, Brown Scars: How White Feminism Betrays Women of Color by Ruby Hamad
