* I am back! Lots of reasons why there have been no updates for 18 months but I will not bore you with most of the details. Main reasons: new position and another son! I have updated my extracurriculars and professional development sections and have added a new section detailing my "Admin. Experience".
Thank you to all who have emailed me regarding my Ontario Elementary Curriculum Links pages and my Curriculum Grid pages. I am astonished that 4 years later they are still being used!
