Diversity, Equity, Inclusion, and Belonging Series (2024-2025)

How we respond to children, and what we say about children, matters. The ways in which difference shows up in our classroom is both an opportunity for learning and a challenge for us to work through. In this session, we will explore how complex learners show up in our school communities, and will practice working through strength-based perspectives, as well as developing learning opportunities that embrace differences. Additionally, participants will continue to consider inclusive literacy practices as discussed in the keynote (appropriate for all content areas).
