2025-06-23 18:02:18 UTC

What does CRT means and the 5 pursuits

2025-06-23 18:02:21 UTC

CRP is more about the "how" you teach than it is about the "what" you teach.

2025-06-23 18:02:27 UTC

2025-06-23 18:02:29 UTC

It's not just aboutlanguage, food, music, it is about the culture created in your class

How to best implement

2025-06-23 18:02:30 UTC

2025-06-23 18:02:36 UTC

Culturally Responsive is not demographics but the overall feel of the classroom, students, lessons...

it's the how

2025-06-23 18:02:56 UTC

2025-06-23 18:03:03 UTC

The context of culture is not just about food, language, dress, etc.

it is the HOW

2025-06-23 18:03:31 UTC

2025-06-23 18:03:33 UTC

Letting students know how incredibly important in this week's lesson development

I would like specific strategies to use, and ways to self-check that I'm improving in using CRP best practices. Thank you for all of the resources, I would love a chance to re-visit them if we have time on Friday morning or afternoon - there were so many resources.

2025-06-23 18:03:34 UTC

The best way to implement.

2025-06-23 18:03:37 UTC

AI should NEVER be used at all

2025-06-23 18:03:38 UTC

CRP is focused not on what the students are lacking but rather on what they are bringing to the classroom.

2025-06-23 18:03:39 UTC

Having the time to do the work and not be burned out myself.

2025-06-23 18:03:41 UTC

Sharing!

I learned about the 5 Pursuits.

2025-06-23 18:04:27 UTC

2025-06-23 18:04:29 UTC

CRT is really more about the "how" rather then the "what"...focus on how we are delivering the content we are required to teach

Doing more hurt than harm

2025-06-23 18:04:30 UTC

How the task is enacted makes the tasks culturally relevant

CRP

2025-06-23 18:04:32 UTC

2025-06-23 18:04:35 UTC

I would still like to see more examples of how to make a math lesson more culturally relevant, or how to establish a classroom culture. What are the specific things since so much of our work and conversations are so abstract

I have a difficult time anyone uses the phrase "you should be grateful" with regard to a job as this is a way for power to underpay, undervalue and marginalize

2025-06-23 18:04:37 UTC

2025-06-23 18:04:38 UTC

I'm not necessarily confused by anything, but I am interested in learning more about learning theory and how it impacts CRE.

they keep saying how you teach needs to be examined

2025-06-23 18:04:40 UTC

but i want EXAMPLES

Leaving someone out

ericaballard2 — 2025-06-23 18:04:41 UTC

2025-06-23 18:04:44 UTC

What confuses is me is what is really the use of the 5 pursuits

Ready-to-go resources/Easy to modify

2025-06-23 18:04:45 UTC

How to connect each and every student.

2025-06-23 18:04:49 UTC

Having a positive and meaningful relationship with students still fulfilling our work as a teacher

2025-06-23 18:04:52 UTC

Wearing myself out

2025-06-23 18:04:56 UTC

how to layer the CRP on top of lessons

2025-06-23 18:04:57 UTC

what would a classroom doing all of this look like...can I get a video demonstration

2025-06-23 18:05:01 UTC

That I can do the "how" of CRP teaching well enough to make a difference in my students' achievement and self-confidence in math.

2025-06-23 18:05:02 UTC

What does it look like when it is done well?

2025-06-23 18:05:03 UTC

Relinquishing control and not being able to reflect on my deficit, perspectives, and biases about certain groups of learners.

2025-06-23 18:05:03 UTC

Taking over. As stated by others, I need to create an opening for students and allow them to take over.

How can we implement these changes? What specifically does this look like in action?

2025-06-23 18:05:03 UTC

How best to mesh CRE with BTC

2025-06-23 18:05:05 UTC

5 pursuits

2025-06-23 18:05:06 UTC

2025-06-23 18:05:10 UTC

getting coworkers to implement/ learn with me

2025-06-23 18:05:10 UTC

How can I integrate everything in my classroom. And what the "How" would look like in my classroom/my next set of students

2025-06-23 18:05:17 UTC

The importance of building strong, powerful relationships

2025-06-23 18:05:19 UTC

What I'm worried about is if I won't be able to learn the 5 pursuits in the time I have during these meetings.

How do students feel known?

2025-06-23 18:05:21 UTC

2025-06-23 18:05:23 UTC

Why curriculum doesn't already have this embedded?

how to manage student buy-in

2025-06-23 18:05:37 UTC

-having the patience to really let students sit with a concept and giving them the time to formulate their responses.

-being consistent and making sure that students know that they are expected to participate in daily class discussions.

How do I get into teaching cultural math without looking like a jerk

Criticism about implementation

2025-06-23 18:05:47 UTC

when things get stressful

2025-06-23 18:05:56 UTC

When teachers tell their students test scores matter does this make students feel unvalued?

2025-06-23 18:05:58 UTC

2025-06-23 18:06:01 UTC

The 5 pursuits

2025-06-23 18:06:01 UTC

If I am teaching a lesson and incorporating CRP during an admin observation, I wonder how it will effect the results of the observation. Should I even give much concern to the results of the observation since I have a responsibility to my students?

As mathematics courses become more advanced, the curriculum tends to become more abstract. How do we continue to make this content more culturally relevant? Consider graphing and transformations of quadratics

2025-06-23 18:06:01 UTC

Identifying interactions that shaped our Mathematics Experiences

2025-06-23 18:06:03 UTC

Not really confusing, but would love to see it implemented in real time

2025-06-23 18:06:12 UTC

2025-06-23 18:06:14 UTC

Students pardon this whole process. Students must be involved as well. They must take an active role in their education.

my kids problems are SO heavy

2025-06-23 18:06:18 UTC

2025-06-23 18:06:20 UTC

I'm concerned that the frustrations students have with higher level crmt lessons might also frustrate my administrators

2025-06-23 18:06:50 UTC

2025-06-23 18:06:53 UTC

AI exists and it is our job to let students know to properly identify its uses and the abilities it offers. The real world has jumped in feet first, and that isn't to say it is best, but it is used and we need to teach responsibility.

2025-06-23 18:06:58 UTC

Possible pushback from students as they are given more cognitively demanding tasks.

other people say they need to give up control

2025-06-23 18:07:03 UTC

I have lost control and the students run amuck

2025-06-23 18:07:05 UTC

As a theoretical teacher finding ways to emphasize on understanding and validating my students cultural identities; including all diverse cultures. Teaching more in an inclusive and conducive teaching and learning environment.

How to do understand math better

Lack of support

2025-06-23 18:07:09 UTC

Regular use of AI lowers cognitive skills and critical thinking skills of students (and teachers!) - it gives them a confirmation bias - they think that they know what they are doing when really, they do not.

2025-06-23 18:07:12 UTC

2025-06-23 18:07:13 UTC

I see people working together to make a change.

How will it be perceived by other math educators.

2025-06-23 18:07:24 UTC

I learned that CRP is about the culture that you are creating in your class so that your students feel seen, and then are able to connect to the lesson.

2025-06-23 18:07:25 UTC

not over stepping

2025-06-23 18:07:34 UTC

Embracing every student authentically & equitably, so that they feel seen and heard

2025-06-23 18:07:36 UTC

each teachers way of teaching needs to change every year because they have a different group of students every year, and that's why some groups do bad in there class and others do good.

2025-06-23 18:07:44 UTC

I really understand why people are choosing not to go into education

ericaballard2 — 2025-06-23 18:07:45 UTC

2025-06-23 18:08:03 UTC

How would this look like in a classroom that is predominately made up of students of the minority population?

How to work with all stakeholders so that this work can happen and have a positive impact.

2025-06-23 18:08:05 UTC

2025-06-23 18:08:27 UTC

How to connect with teachers

Reaching the teachers to make a change is one thing, getting building administration and on board with the curriculum is where the real change occurs

2025-06-23 18:08:28 UTC

I believe that building the strong relationships should come first.

2025-06-23 18:08:34 UTC

Will people see this as another form of DEI and not want to be involved in CRP?

2025-06-23 18:08:37 UTC

It is always helpful to get students feedback

2025-06-23 18:08:55 UTC

2025-06-23 18:09:07 UTC

Sharing with others

Thank you (all of our facilitators) for for all you have done to prepare this training. Nice job!

2025-06-23 18:09:07 UTC

2025-06-23 18:09:13 UTC

Will it come across as contrived?

The world is your oyster

2025-06-23 18:09:27 UTC

Is why mean teacher expect respect

2025-06-23 18:09:44 UTC

2025-06-23 18:09:59 UTC

Spiderman will save you

2025-06-23 18:10:13 UTC

Receiving pushback from students and admin

2025-06-23 18:10:33 UTC

Being patient when working through the student struggles of doing things that are hard and challenging

2025-06-23 18:10:41 UTC

Lots of nice people and patient people

Meeting admin (state) goals when I could care less about that in the grand scheme of things, but then I also don't want to take part in pushing out students who can't compete in this society or meet their goals.

2025-06-23 18:10:52 UTC

Today's newest problems require today's newest solutions

2025-06-23 18:13:33 UTC

CRP in terms of classroom culture instead of personal culture

2025-06-23 18:14:11 UTC

How to implement better in classrooms and lessons

2025-06-23 18:14:42 UTC

CRT is necessary for ALL students, not just historically disenfranchised or underrepresented. However, is the way we do that different when the vast majority of our students are a part of those communities vs when the vast majority of students are not?

2025-06-23 18:14:49 UTC

I think that this program will be more useful if it was in person because most kids can't sit at a computer for 6 hours

2025-06-23 18:15:02 UTC

Student buy-in...that my motivation is genuinely for their benefit, not just another gimmick coming down the pike

2025-06-23 18:15:13 UTC

All classrooms can benefit and see gains from implementing CRE

2025-06-23 18:16:33 UTC

2025-06-23 18:26:50 UTC

I learned about cultural inclusive learning
