Students read about racism in history, discuss their experiences with racism, write their senators on what needs to change for racism to end and start petition that addresses the solutions. Utilizing current short videos on racism from the person's point of view and reading historical archives from their state is a great way to engage the student(S.O.H.P.). There are lesson plans and Powerpoint the educator can utilize. For homework ask students in the next week to look for forms of racism they experience and write it down. The following week discussed what they experienced, how it made them feel and what would have been a positive way to handle it.

Repository description (CRHP): This repository houses an extensive oral history collection chronicling African American history in Mobile.

Repository description (extant): The National African-American Archives and Museum is committed to the collection and preservation of African-American history of those who have made significant contributions to the progress of African-Americans.

We are here to teach African-American children and others the importance of their history and the value of our heritage.

What we represent is a living monument of the strength, tenacity, and intelligence of a people who were brought from their homeland, subjected to many years of oppression, but managed to survive.

In this survival, we have made many substantial contributions in art, medicine, politics, technology, science, space exploration, sports, and other fields.

The paths that were trod were difficult, but in spite of these difficulties, many inspiring records have been left behind for future generations.

Our origin, as a source of information, began in an historic, stately building that once stood as a symbol of racial segregation.

It was known as the Davis Avenue Branch of the Mobile Public Library, the only library for Negroes from 1932 until the mid-1960s.

The building was designed by the famed George Bigelow Rogers and is listed in the National Register of Historic Places in Washington, D.C.

Within the Archives and Museum, you will find portraits, biographies, African carvings, an extensive collection of books, family histories, antique artifacts, and other memorabilia. Our new expansion program will allow more exhibit space.

Reading books with English/Spanish words and skip counting in English/Spanish are great ways to engage bilingual children.
This is done poorly if the teacher only focuses on the English words and overlooks the Spanish words. Students who don't want to learn Spanish may resist but by incorporating books that relate to their life such as their body or community helpers the student will become engaged. Have bilinguals read the story to their peers.

I pad rotation station of 20 minutes playing educational games in a classroom with a small group of peers. Peers tutor the group through technical difficulties to resolve any issues and share how to play the game.
This doesn't work if the educator doesn't walk the students through how to use the I pad and where to click to start the game and interact with it.

Once a lesson is taught the student has ten minutes to write their discoveries in a journal. Educators incorporate sharing time with their peers in groups of two to read their observations/reflections and comment. The educator needs to make sure that they have some sentence prompts for those who struggle to write their thoughts down and share them. This can be build upon by asking students to volunteer to read back their thoughts empowering students and their peers gain a better understanding to the objective. If this is implemented consistently the student will have a journal that will show growth over the course of the year.

Students work together on a project like creating a new survey on Qualtrics/Google Forms during class time to find out who engages in social media platforms etc.and send out survey.
Students collaborate on a social issue and come up with collective solutions with a lead spokesperson that relates their findings. Create clear expectations in the beginning of the year of the task objective, sharing modes and guide the process. If the teacher doesn't model the expectations with the students they will not know how to cooperate. It's also important to set S.E.L. standards from the onset to avoid labeling and disparaging comments.
