This organization has a nice list of local festivals and events that we might be able to go to better understand the variety of experiences of our students: http://www.rilatinoarts.org/RILatinoFestivals.html]]> 2019-08-06 15:13:21 UTC https://padlet.com/mali14/vxofwgmikmh1/wish/373436160 https://padlet.com/mali14/vxofwgmikmh1/wish/373436482 They would probably feel that her teacher cares because he is joining in activities beyond the classroom.  They might feel honored because the teacher is a part of their community. They might feel shame if they don’t speak the language and cannot communicate.  Belonging, safety and not like an outsider.]]> 2019-08-06 15:15:17 UTC https://padlet.com/mali14/vxofwgmikmh1/wish/373436482 mali14 https://padlet.com/mali14/vxofwgmikmh1/wish/373437568 2019-08-06 15:22:57 UTC https://padlet.com/mali14/vxofwgmikmh1/wish/373437568 https://padlet.com/mali14/vxofwgmikmh1/wish/373437607 2019-08-06 15:23:17 UTC https://padlet.com/mali14/vxofwgmikmh1/wish/373437607 https://padlet.com/mali14/vxofwgmikmh1/wish/373437609 I strive to include my parents in as much of our classroom community as possible but they are often hesitant to engage and are disconnected. I don't think my families have had many positive school experiences. I bring my daughter and attend as many after school events as possible. I always send personal invitations to my families encouraging attendance. I want them to know that they are always welcome to join our community. ]]> 2019-08-06 15:23:18 UTC https://padlet.com/mali14/vxofwgmikmh1/wish/373437609 https://padlet.com/mali14/vxofwgmikmh1/wish/373437782 This is a site where students can write open letters to presidential candidates. The letters are public and archived so their work is out there for people to read. It's an empowering activity and I'm hoping it is opened up again for the 2020 election so keep an eye open for it.]]> 2019-08-06 15:24:42 UTC https://padlet.com/mali14/vxofwgmikmh1/wish/373437782 https://padlet.com/mali14/vxofwgmikmh1/wish/373437917 There may be many reasons why parents/guardians are afraid to become engaged in conversations with the teacher. These reasons need to be explored: for example, language barriars, fear of authority, fear of being treated in a condescending mannner by the educated person, need to work and cannot get to school, have several children and do not want to appear at school with all of them.
