RT @GECDSB_SLPsCDAs: Let's break these words into sounds. How many sounds do you hear in each word? What sounds do you hear? Can you write the letters? Breaking words into sounds is known as phoneme segmentation, a skill that is important for learning how to read & write. @gecdsbpro #SLPtips #SLP pic.twitter.com/YqWkzGF0w6

Online learning tip; Eat your meals and snacks away from screens. Take time to sit down and eat, there’s no need to rush through your meals. #canadasfoodguide

Online learning tip; Take screen breaks! For your eyes: look away from the screen. Every 20 mins, look away for 20 sec. For your body: get up and move! For every 60 mins of work, move for 5 mins.

Online learning tip; Even though it’s called a laptop, do not use it on your lap (or the couch or bed). Find a quiet place at home with free desk space instead. Your neck and back will be more comfortable, and it will be easier to learn! #onlinelearningtips
