I keep seeing this idea going around in social media that the "real" teachers are the ones who will spend their summers planning, going to PD, etc.

But I disagree.

Teaching is an exhausting gig. It's okay to take a break in the summer. Read a book. Watch movies. Go hiking. Swim. Binge watch Stranger Things. Kick the soccer ball around with your daughter. Make a robot.

You've poured your heart and soul into this gig. You shouldn't feel guilty for resting.

I think it's a great idea to read an educational book or attend a conference. But your students also benefit from having a teacher who is well-rested and excited to be there on day one.

Free Public Libraries are something to be very thankful for!

This Toronto municipal election flyer from 1882 is a good reminder that the creation of a library was a deliberate choice of the people for the people. It was a revolutionary idea, back then: most libraries were either private, or paid for by subscription fees. The first free, tax-supported Canadian public libraries opened in 1883 in Saint John, Guelph and Toronto. Today, the Public Libraries Act helps ensure free, equitable access to public library service in Ontario. http://ow.ly/Q6AI30fGRjL
