will you address your bias or percieved bias when discussing classroom management? do you feel you have biases that hold you back from being culturally responsive? Do you have gender bias as well or just bias in culture or do you feel you do not have bias?

Jill, I think if you can define what culturally

responsive teaching is for you it will help you

determine if it has changed your perception. What

differing modes of communication will you use to

reach all your families?

Jill - great P.O.P.!  I just wrote Jess a note on this too.

I found a great resource at the Harvard School of

Education about achievement gap.  I will send you

the link.  I think your community connection piece

regarding events and majority/minority groups is relevant.  At

Ponderosa, our issue was getting this groups in the

building.  Wondering if there is any research or suggestion on

this?

How will you know if you are culturally responsive? Is there one particular way? Will it look different for each and every teacher?  What type of resources to you plan on using when teaching your diverse learners?

I really like the idea of exploring what culturally responsive teaching is, are you

going to use Light in Their Eyes to support your thinking? Did your community activities

now help you better understand what culturally responsive teaching necessitates or was that

a piece you developed in class? Nice work!
