I was out supply teaching yesterday and had a fabulous time!  I met some great kids in a Law 12 class and we had an awesome discussion about Prisons and Money and Canadian Politics with the Stephen Harper Government.  Curious what resources we used?  Try these videos for starters.  And, yes, I informed the students that the CBC is known for leaning somewhat to the left.   :-)

After an 8-year hiatus, I'm back in the information technology sector!  Yea!

Now, don't get me wrong.  Teaching was a blast!  But, with my recent move to New Brunswick, there's been lots of learning to do and great people to meet.

The first thing I learned is that there are a lot of really great people who are responsible for public school teaching.  Not only were the teachers great, but I also met some fine principals and vice-principals.  They were hard workers themselves, but always took time to be encouraging to me. While there seem to be many who slam the people (teachers, principals) in our current educational system, you won't find me doing that.
