Matheson Secondary. My students, my &#8220;cherubs,&#8221; my &#8220;lovable misfits&#8221; inspire, ignite and inject me with joy and humour every day. I believe education is the silver bullet. I believe we never stop learning, never stop growing. I believe we are richer through our learning together. This blog is an extension of that belief. Through my continued studies in technology, language and literacy, career counseling and assessment practices I have synthesized some of my learnings here to share with other education professionals. I hope some of these resources can help you, as you help your own students.<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/blogs.ubc.ca\/bertrandmichelle\/files\/2013\/07\/girl-explore-giant-books-image.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-medium wp-image-33\" alt=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/blogs.ubc.ca\/bertrandmichelle\/files\/2013\/07\/girl-explore-giant-books-image-225x300.jpg\" width=\"225\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blogs.ubc.ca\/bertrandmichelle\/files\/2013\/07\/girl-explore-giant-books-image-225x300.jpg 225w, https:\/\/blogs.ubc.ca\/bertrandmichelle\/files\/2013\/07\/girl-explore-giant-books-image.jpg 301w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 225px) 100vw, 225px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>My name is Michelle Bertrand and I&#8217;m a High School English, Socials, and Careers teacher fortunate enough to find my home at L.A.
