These statistics are helpful for a teacher to know so that they can be more aware of these injustices that are taking place, as well as an activist for making school more fair and equal.]]> 2020-12-15 03:30:06 UTC https://padlet.com/JillTrumbauer/frx0bl80bkzmhlj9/wish/1018716414 JillTrumbauer https://padlet.com/JillTrumbauer/frx0bl80bkzmhlj9/wish/1018722312 This is a YouTube link to a story that focuses on fruit "stereotypes" and how these can be easily looked past by seeing all of the similarities among the fruit instead of the differences. This is a book that can be used in an elementary classroom with other activities to get this point on inclusion across to the students in a way that they will understand.]]> 2020-12-15 03:33:49 UTC https://padlet.com/JillTrumbauer/frx0bl80bkzmhlj9/wish/1018722312 JillTrumbauer https://padlet.com/JillTrumbauer/frx0bl80bkzmhlj9/wish/1018729657 Small activités such as this one shown below are easy ways that students can become aware of their differences and similarities in order to appreciate how these make each student who they are.]]> 2020-12-15 03:38:45 UTC https://padlet.com/JillTrumbauer/frx0bl80bkzmhlj9/wish/1018729657 JillTrumbauer https://padlet.com/JillTrumbauer/frx0bl80bkzmhlj9/wish/1018733478 Easy little ice breaker activities such as this one below are a great way for students to get to know each other beyond being just peers. This lets students learn fun little facts about their peers in order to encourage new friendships and new connections among each other.]]> 2020-12-15 03:41:20 UTC https://padlet.com/JillTrumbauer/frx0bl80bkzmhlj9/wish/1018733478 JillTrumbauer https://padlet.com/JillTrumbauer/frx0bl80bkzmhlj9/wish/1018735086 Below is a poster that I have made for another class that I feel is also relevant for this project. It is a poster that has guidelines for how the class should function in order to encourage each student to reach their fullest potential in the classroom environment. Setting these standards early on as well as enforcing them is key to creating a positive classroom environment. ]]> 2020-12-15 03:42:25 UTC https://padlet.com/JillTrumbauer/frx0bl80bkzmhlj9/wish/1018735086 JillTrumbauer https://padlet.com/JillTrumbauer/frx0bl80bkzmhlj9/wish/1018737704 This is a sample lesson that would be great for younger students to learn about their own personal history, as well as sharing with the class to learn their classmates' histories. This project encourages students to speak with family members to learn key events that are important for their family, which will be different for each and every student regardless of how similar they may seem. This is a great activity for students to see and appreciate how unique and different everybody really is.]]> 2020-12-15 03:43:50 UTC https://padlet.com/JillTrumbauer/frx0bl80bkzmhlj9/wish/1018737704 JillTrumbauer https://padlet.com/JillTrumbauer/frx0bl80bkzmhlj9/wish/1018745346 This website provides great detail as well as examples of how to include diversity and inclusion methods into the classroom. There is even a link at the bottom of the website where educators can sign up for a weekly newsletter related to bettering themselves for their class through various professional development resources. ]]> 2020-12-15 03:49:13 UTC https://padlet.com/JillTrumbauer/frx0bl80bkzmhlj9/wish/1018745346 JillTrumbauer https://padlet.com/JillTrumbauer/frx0bl80bkzmhlj9/wish/1018748463 This article shows actual reasons beyond "it's nice!" as to why a classroom needs to be culturally responsive to the students that are in it. As an educator, knowing the reasons is useful to help motivate all of the extra work that goes into making a classroom environment what it is. It is also helpful to know the purpose behind why these ideas and methods are useful so that proper adjustments can be made if these results are not being seen from the students. ]]> 2020-12-15 03:51:29 UTC https://padlet.com/JillTrumbauer/frx0bl80bkzmhlj9/wish/1018748463 JillTrumbauer https://padlet.com/JillTrumbauer/frx0bl80bkzmhlj9/wish/1018753997 This website provides educators with tons of books, resources, articles and more of simple adjustments that can be made in a classroom to encourage social justice. The books are organized in a manner such that they are easy to find for whatever purpose the teacher would need without having to sort through tons of books before deciding on one. The website is a whole movement of focusing on this concept of social justice in the classroom, which I think is very important and see necessary to incorporate into my educational philosophy.]]> 2020-12-15 03:55:27 UTC https://padlet.com/JillTrumbauer/frx0bl80bkzmhlj9/wish/1018753997 JillTrumbauer https://padlet.com/JillTrumbauer/frx0bl80bkzmhlj9/wish/1018759198 This video is a link to a TED Talk where the speaker focuses on how to learn about the backgrounds of students that are different from your own. She focuses on urban schools as she gives her talk as a way to encourage teachers to think about their students individually and not just in groups based on outside features. She encourages this idea of not making assumptions about students or comparing them to others similar to them, which I find is important but also so easy to overlook in the classroom setting. Becoming aware of your own biases is the first step in becoming better, and this video brought light as to how to do this.]]> 2020-12-15 03:59:27 UTC https://padlet.com/JillTrumbauer/frx0bl80bkzmhlj9/wish/1018759198
