This also includes understanding how a students background and culture impacts their learning & interactions with you in the classroom. ]]> 2020-10-10 13:20:10 UTC https://padlet.com/sierrawillis/locbie0sfqbsh6p9/wish/818591814 I know that CRT allows for all students to be connected and makes (can make) learning relevant to them. sseifert https://padlet.com/sierrawillis/locbie0sfqbsh6p9/wish/818591864 2020-10-10 13:20:14 UTC https://padlet.com/sierrawillis/locbie0sfqbsh6p9/wish/818591864 I know that CRT is essential to open the full range of possibilities in the curriculum to all students. wbutler9 https://padlet.com/sierrawillis/locbie0sfqbsh6p9/wish/818592015 2020-10-10 13:20:25 UTC https://padlet.com/sierrawillis/locbie0sfqbsh6p9/wish/818592015 How do I share experiences of other people when I've never been in their shoes? ktotzke https://padlet.com/sierrawillis/locbie0sfqbsh6p9/wish/818592094 I don't know what it's like to be them.

This means that (even though it may take a bit to build up) the eventual "transfer" conversations and products of work will reflect the lengthy acquisition and meaning-making conversations we've had throughout the year. ]]> 2020-10-10 14:56:19 UTC https://padlet.com/sierrawillis/locbie0sfqbsh6p9/wish/818664487 cfortunato4 https://padlet.com/sierrawillis/locbie0sfqbsh6p9/wish/818664548 I love the "windows and mirrors" strategy and I think this will be especially beneficial to incorporate into my social studies curriculum as I work with students on building empathy for other groups/individuals and seeing themselves in the content ]]> 2020-10-10 14:56:24 UTC https://padlet.com/sierrawillis/locbie0sfqbsh6p9/wish/818664548 I was reinforced that our staff is working diligently to improve their craft.
