Interested in hearing (and discussing as a group) how coverture fits into these newer decades and how we can continue the theme with our students/classes.

It may be helpful for non-US history teachers to work together.

I teach 8th grade US history in NYC, so often womens history is covered in one to two lessons. I’d like to know more, in order to teach a more complete story.

I am a Social Emotional district coach supporting with social emotional learning and would love if there were any others passionate or currently teaching SEL that would be interested in bridging these topics with the SEL skills.

I would like to connect with others who are interested in ways to use what we learn in the classroom. I am also interested in ways to deal with the inevitable pushback in my small town. I have a lot of new books for book clubs that have diverse protagonists. I’d like to explore some shorter resources that I can use to complement the voices in the new books, but I am really open to anything. I like surprises:)

I’m curious to talk to other teachers about integrating this work into their arts classroom curricula, or using the arts to teach and process the different knowledge. Possible topics of discussion might be theatre of the oppressed and documentary theatre about feminist topics, use of visual art as protest, feminist songwriting and
music, etc.

Hi - most interested in continuing our discussions for a bit longer as the most valuable thing for me is the diversity of voices and experiences in this workshop - I feel I can do the curricular work/translating into the classroom on my own and don't want to use much of the NYC time for that -  but just welcome additional time to debrief all that we'll be discussing in the sessions and hearing from a range of perspectives! thanks.

First, I wouldn't mind an affinity group about how to use things like Padlet! 😊 That said, I agree with a previous poster about wanting to work with colleagues to learn new ways to translate what we'll be doing in our sessions into classroom lessons and creative assessments I can use with my students. And also, while I'm lucky enough to work in a place that doesn't censor my lessons, these last several years have created a problem with some students themselves not being willing to accept actual facts as, well.....actual facts. I'd love to have some conversations about that.

Hi everyone! I am coming from CT and am fortunate to be in a progressive public system in a town which is diverse in every way. That being said, we still get pushback from various corners which seem to be growing in their volume and volatility. I teach all seniors and, specifically, teach a writing and studio course in conjunction with the University of Connecticut which allows me a much wider cut of materials and topics. It is a dream course with remarkable humans who generally want to see the world stop going backwards in time. My goal is to constantly bring them more through learning as much as possible and collaborating with other fabulous people who can help me grow as a human being and educator. Definitely interested in bringing sources and ideas back as well as working on my own curriculum as the course is now being taught at our sister school across town.

I live in Texas and in addition to bills limiting what can be taught in social studies classes, we will likely have similar bills as the Florida “Don’t Say Gay” bill restricting what we can and can’t say in schools regarding the queer identities. As a librarian, I have much more room to provide content and resources to teachers and students.

I am also an employee monitor to student led clubs. I have helped with our GSA (Gender & Sexuality Alliance), the Enough Is Enough (Female Empowerment Club), and Student Activism Club in the past.

As an out Queer educator who advocates for anti-racist policies, I have also come under attack over the last year from one of my elected officials and conservatives in my community.

I'd love to brainstorm and think with some literature teachers on how to integrate primary sources for texts that we teach. I integrate primary sources for time period contextualization or cultural concepts.

I would love to meet with a group from more conservative areas where these topics receive a lot of pushback. I want to discuss how we can be advocates for our students and provide them with all of the knowledge and resources they deserve.

I would also like to meet with people who run clubs in their schools that relate to advocacy or feminism.

Excited to work on a new Women and Gender Studies course on our public high school campus this year with a diverse student group (many students are already focusing in BIPOC, QTPOC, and LGBTQIA+ studies) They are all Visual and Performing Arts students so hoping to focus on Feminist and Gender focused Artist/Activists to broaden understanding of the Arts as avenue for agency and expression…especially in the context of the body and identity within social and political realms. Also looking at ways to incorporate this material into History and English courses through collaborative teaching…

I feel like I always struggle when it comes to incorporating creative, engaging content into my classroom. I would love to brainstorm with other passionate educators to bring amazing lessons &/or units back to my classroom with me.

I always feel like I'm playing catch-up with women in American History. So I'm excited to do a deep dive into the women and movements of this specific time period so I can have a more firm grasp when I bring them back to the classroom.

Thinking about: adapting texts for student reading levels; how to organize content over time to get at deeper meaning that places cognitive load on students (ie. not teacher given or lecture); guiding questions that are accessible but still lead to deep, structural analysis of history and content.

I am coming from Arizona in a largely conservative area. There are numerous bills being debated by the legislature that would limit our ability to teach about feminism and other "controversial" topics. I would love to meet with a group with similar issues in their areas so we can work together to make an action plant to bring this content back to our schools/students.
