Always employing a critical lens and motivating our students to think critically about all information to prepare them to be politically active.

Culturally competent pedagogy is being mindful and inclusive about students' cultural backgrounds while teaching and designing curriculum. One enhancement in my unit is to create parallels between the social divisions in Mesopotamia and today throughout
GRASPS.

I'm thinking a lot about acknowledging my own misconceptions about my students and what they may or may not know starting the school year in a new country and school. What ways can I bring their own voices into the classroom more so that they feel empowered and encouraged to share their own experiences?

Recognize and honor the different cultural backgrounds represented in our school community. Build curriculum (GRASPS) around our students' interests.

Culturally competent pedagogy uses student prior knowledge, culture, and lived experience to shape how we reach out to and structure our curriculum. Without this idea, we merely try to add a little bit of culture to the education as opposed to the other way around.

Culturally competent pedagogy must respect the student's life and experiences outside of the classroom. There is no value to the content within a lesson unless it is shown why it could relevant and applied in "normal" non-school life.

Exactly what Dr. Cantor was speaking about this morning.  Relationship, routine, and resilience bound and located to one caring individual.  I want to cry.

-Is important that student maintenance some cultural integrity as well as academic excellency.
-Use students as academic leaders as a strategy to influence positive behavior.
Use the culture like a bridge btw learning and S-T, S-S relationship.

I would say be more aware of whats out there and be willing to listen and really try to understand what is going so you can help.

She mentions a teacher giving intention positive attention to Black students, specifically Black boys. I think this is especially important for our Black boys who receive SPED services and I'm thinking about how we must identify the strengths of each student at the beginning of the year and be really intentional about building upon those strengths with positive attention. Look into making them leaders. How do we do this virtually?

In page 160, the article mentions “Rather than allow that power to influence their peers in negative ways, Lewis challenged the boys to demonstrate academic power by drawing on issues and ideas they found meaningful.”

We have students that have a strong voice when it comes to issues and ideas that they have a strong connection to, either because they have seen it or lived it. Now, how to get those issues and voice in academic lessons?

How can we adapt these strategies to a learning environment that'll likely remain virtual for a significant amount of time?

This relates to our work at CHEC doing deep dives into the data to find students who are struggling and create resources to support them.

on page 160--on left hand column on the bottom under academic success...Despite the current social inequalities and hostel classroom environments, student must develop their own academic skills"...stood out to me ...we have Summit so students learn how to adapt to teaching themselves...I have a problem when most of kids have ADHD and have a hard time focusing..we have to also take in account that students learn differently and we have to teach or provide therapeutic services to where the student is currently at or frame of mind

In the article, Dr. Ladson-Billings uses the example of a teacher letting students express themselves in the classroom using their "home language," and then translating that to the standard form. This can be applied in various contexts in school. For example, in math it's okay for students to use everyday terms and phrases to express their thought process and then restate it for them in more academic terms.

On page 162, the author explains that some students feel alien in schools and consider it a hostile place. It makes me wonder how we can make our school more welcoming to our Black spanish learners that might feel like our school prioritzes other cultures. I found this to be particularly true in 6th grade.

The Teachers were all focused on the artistry of teaching and held the belief that "all students could and must succeed" in the teacher's course as well as the teacher becomes the learner. This made me think about the Dr. Cantor about the importance of relationships and the belief that a child/ group of children can succeed.

EQ’s: Where do we find ourselves now? What is at the front of mind? How can we restore, repair, and rebuild hope for ourselves, our students and our community? As educators in the quest for social justice, how do we continue to support, motivate and educate our students? How do we use circles to deepen our understanding of knowledge of culturally relevant teaching.
