Reflection by Amy Holubeck https://padlet.com/holubecka/bt7yljwhxgr4 What have we done that you are most excited about? Have you had an aha moment, if so what? What questions do you currently have? en-us 2018-09-24 22:23:29 UTC 2018-10-01 21:29:53 UTC hello@padlet.com Racism kirkseyam https://padlet.com/holubecka/bt7yljwhxgr4/wish/287878251 I am encouraged that we are able to have these important conversations so that we as professionals and as a staff are able to establish an understanding of students and their perspective and position. We need to recognize what is so that we might move towards what it should be. It is important that we are as intentional if not more intentional for our students and families as the the system we are battling everyday. ]]> 2018-10-01 21:23:47 UTC https://padlet.com/holubecka/bt7yljwhxgr4/wish/287878251 https://padlet.com/holubecka/bt7yljwhxgr4/wish/287878265 I enjoy the collaborative work and sharing ideas and experience. I like the diversity of our staff and what perspectives we have to offer. The gardening story as whole was an aha moment for me. The question I currently have is what can I do as an educator to lessen the gap and be a part of the solution?]]> 2018-10-01 21:23:55 UTC https://padlet.com/holubecka/bt7yljwhxgr4/wish/287878265 Aha https://padlet.com/holubecka/bt7yljwhxgr4/wish/287878266 So far the garden analogy was my most favorite thing. It was amazing how Dr. Jones took such a simple activity and related it to an intellectually stimulating and layered topic. It made institutionalized racism so easy to understand and explain to others. ]]> 2018-10-01 21:23:56 UTC https://padlet.com/holubecka/bt7yljwhxgr4/wish/287878266 Quotes and Pics https://padlet.com/holubecka/bt7yljwhxgr4/wish/287878291 Being a visual learner, I appreciate the reflection time with quotes and pictures in the hallway. They resonated with me more than a video or conversation would with me. ]]> 2018-10-01 21:24:05 UTC https://padlet.com/holubecka/bt7yljwhxgr4/wish/287878291 My Aha moment is reading all the quotes and pictures during the gallery walk. It reminded me how much can fall under the umbrella of racism. My only question is what can we do as teachers https://padlet.com/holubecka/bt7yljwhxgr4/wish/287878310 2018-10-01 21:24:09 UTC https://padlet.com/holubecka/bt7yljwhxgr4/wish/287878310 Response https://padlet.com/holubecka/bt7yljwhxgr4/wish/287878329 I enjoyed reading the quotes and hearing different people's interpretations.  I also enjoyed listening to the video and the analogy of the pink and red flowers.  It made it more concrete.

It's almost 5:30... IJS]]> 2018-10-01 21:24:21 UTC https://padlet.com/holubecka/bt7yljwhxgr4/wish/287878362 I really like the example about the women's flower boxes. It really makes the idea understandable. https://padlet.com/holubecka/bt7yljwhxgr4/wish/287878367 2018-10-01 21:24:23 UTC https://padlet.com/holubecka/bt7yljwhxgr4/wish/287878367 https://padlet.com/holubecka/bt7yljwhxgr4/wish/287878614 I liked the analogy.  It was very well thought out.

So far I have liked the discussions we've had on these topics.

Where can we find the gardener?]]> 2018-10-01 21:25:30 UTC https://padlet.com/holubecka/bt7yljwhxgr4/wish/287878614 Rich Soil https://padlet.com/holubecka/bt7yljwhxgr4/wish/287878663 In the lower grades, I see how 'rich soil' gives the students (flowers) such a jump start to growing tall and strong. Prior knowledge and experience does wonders for our students. ]]> 2018-10-01 21:25:41 UTC https://padlet.com/holubecka/bt7yljwhxgr4/wish/287878663
