https://padlet.com/jessica_oreilly/aanii We're all people, having a really [adjective] experience. Let's take a second to support each other? en-us 2020-03-19 01:46:25 UTC 2023-05-19 13:02:40 UTC hello@padlet.com https://padlet.net/icons/png/1f353.png jessica_oreilly https://padlet.com/jessica_oreilly/aanii/wish/465671196 ...are hoping everyone is coping as best they can through this.

Do you know what to do if you get sick?
Do you have everything you need?
Do you have a person outside of the home that you can lean on if you need anything?

If the answer to any of the above is no and you're in the Sudbury area, I can do my best to help.

I'm in Toronto and feel lucky that I can work from home and get paid. 
My friends and family have been great at checking in and my colleagues are only a Zoom away. 
Even so - it feels weird and spooky and I often feel quite anxious and sad.

We made this site for Literacy and Basic Skills instructors - maybe some of you will find it useful too. ]]> 2020-03-19 05:23:51 UTC https://padlet.com/jessica_oreilly/aanii/wish/465751639 https://padlet.com/jessica_oreilly/aanii/wish/466388682 Thanks Jessica and Chris for allowing people to write via this platform.  I am still in awe with everything going on.  My husband is what they call immuno-suppressed since he did his last chemo treatment in late August.  That being said, I have to be extra careful.  Thankfully,  we are both at home.  We clean, bring the dog for a walk, cook, watch movies and series.  By the way, has anyone ever watched : "Damages"?  I just finished : "Homecoming" with Julia Robert's.  It is good.  Although, I really think she ought to do something about those lips once this outbreak is over.  😏🤭]]> 2020-03-19 14:38:15 UTC https://padlet.com/jessica_oreilly/aanii/wish/466388682 michelle_zerwer https://padlet.com/jessica_oreilly/aanii/wish/466672307 On CBC's The Current this morning they had the Chief Executive Officer for the Middlesex-London Health Unit.  He noted that he did not like the term social distancing.  Instead he said what they were asking for was:  social cohesion & physical distancing.  Really resonated with me. Aside from TP and hand sanitizer hoarders, been seeing so many examples of compassion and collaboration.  We got this!]]> 2020-03-19 17:05:07 UTC https://padlet.com/jessica_oreilly/aanii/wish/466672307 kceccolini1 https://padlet.com/jessica_oreilly/aanii/wish/466686825 Need a distraction and interested in science and technology?

And we listened to her story CD The Snow Spider for at least ten times by now. If you know of something suitable for five-year old to listen to, do recommend!

It helps me to focus on the acts of kindness and those going above and beyond in this time.]]> 2020-03-23 01:23:05 UTC https://padlet.com/jessica_oreilly/aanii/wish/470235669 https://padlet.com/jessica_oreilly/aanii/wish/471080294 Kathy Essmiller here, from Oklahoma State University in the US. Two Twitter accounts which have had me laughing until I cried are the National Cowboy Museum here in Oklahoma City (@ncwhm) and @simonholland. The museum account is currently being handled by a supposed night security guard who is taking advice on how to 'Tweeter' from his grandkids. Might actually be a genius social media expert, but it is pretty funny. The other is just a funny parenting account. Be well, friends.

Stay safe!

MG here. Going on two weeks since the beginning of the grand "pivot" (will that word ever re-vert to our old understandings/definitions again?). My head has been buzzing ever since. Thinking about how the amazing community of open educators, and critical digital pedagogues, where we originally met, has been thrust into an entirely new light relative to the wider world of teaching and learning. So grateful for work like yours that, in the midst of all this, determinedly anchors us back in all things human and in the land. Here's a shot of some paths I've been clearing on our lot recently (as I continue to do what I can to clear paths for students and instructors in their new and unexpected online settings). In both settings, there is still much work to be done... Be well my friend!]]> 2020-03-26 16:43:34 UTC https://padlet.com/jessica_oreilly/aanii/wish/476917160
