Now I think... it is important to design the learning experience to be mindful of power and systems, with multiple perspectives.]]> 2020-01-28 15:38:53 UTC https://padlet.com/cptakach/xzgx1ullvx7i/wish/437035620 https://padlet.com/cptakach/xzgx1ullvx7i/wish/437040979 I used to think... that CRP included  multiple perspective and diversity is presented
Now I think it is very important to provide ample opportunities to activate people's perspective.  ]]> 2020-01-28 15:45:57 UTC https://padlet.com/cptakach/xzgx1ullvx7i/wish/437040979 https://padlet.com/cptakach/xzgx1ullvx7i/wish/437041015 I used to think... that CRP was about including all students in the curriculum of SS. 
Now I think... CRP is about how to better include students in each lesson and helping them see multiple perspectives and beliefs throughout a unit or lesson. ]]> 2020-01-28 15:46:00 UTC https://padlet.com/cptakach/xzgx1ullvx7i/wish/437041015 https://padlet.com/cptakach/xzgx1ullvx7i/wish/437041368 I used to think...
that CRP was just about including multiple perspectives.

Now I think...
keeping historical events relevant in order for all students to actively engage and make connections to is equally as important as teaching from multiple perspectives.]]> 2020-01-28 15:46:28 UTC https://padlet.com/cptakach/xzgx1ullvx7i/wish/437041368 https://padlet.com/cptakach/xzgx1ullvx7i/wish/437045867 I used to think that CRP was about making sure different faces and perspectives were included.
Now I think that it is more about purposefully integrating lessons and the learning experience so that everyone can access it and see multiple perspectives of all units and lessons.]]> 2020-01-28 15:52:11 UTC https://padlet.com/cptakach/xzgx1ullvx7i/wish/437045867 https://padlet.com/cptakach/xzgx1ullvx7i/wish/437046151 I used to think that having a good relationship with students is all you need to teach CRP

Now I think.... it is extremely important to create lessons that includes multiple facets of CRP.  ]]> 2020-01-28 15:52:34 UTC https://padlet.com/cptakach/xzgx1ullvx7i/wish/437046151 https://padlet.com/cptakach/xzgx1ullvx7i/wish/437047556 I used to think that CRP was having more opportunities for students to explore different perspectives throughout the year.

Now I think that it is more than that. CRP is not only having those opportunities, but giving students choice in how they use their voice in order to activate their own perspective when making connections to the curriculum.]]> 2020-01-28 15:54:19 UTC https://padlet.com/cptakach/xzgx1ullvx7i/wish/437047556 https://padlet.com/cptakach/xzgx1ullvx7i/wish/437047641 I used to think that student voice and choice was a bit scary and unpredictable.   

Now I think that it is truly empowering.  It creates student buy-in and trust, and motivates them to be forever learners.

Now I see it as something that can be used to help stduents reach to self-directed learning, that is more engaging]]> 2020-01-28 15:55:12 UTC https://padlet.com/cptakach/xzgx1ullvx7i/wish/437048265 https://padlet.com/cptakach/xzgx1ullvx7i/wish/437048888 I used to think that mentioning different perspectives of groups of people was sufficient

Now I see that it is necessary to plan lessons more purposely so students have an opportunity to think critically from many different points of view.]]> 2020-01-28 15:56:00 UTC https://padlet.com/cptakach/xzgx1ullvx7i/wish/437048888 https://padlet.com/cptakach/xzgx1ullvx7i/wish/437052718 I used to think... CRP was about making curriculum more inclusive of different perspectives 

Now I think ... it goes beyond just including different perspectives - we need to affirm student's identity so they can see themselves reflected in the curriculum and provide more opportunities to approach civics/government through a critical lens to challenge the status quo ]]> 2020-01-28 16:00:56 UTC https://padlet.com/cptakach/xzgx1ullvx7i/wish/437052718 https://padlet.com/cptakach/xzgx1ullvx7i/wish/437053219 I used to think that pointing out different perspectives to the students was "good enough" to help them understand.
Now I have a deeper understanding of how important it is to give them opportunities to try and feel how those different perspectives impacted the lives and decisions of people that came before us. I will challenge them to ask themselves how, with that better understanding, can they make a difference.]]> 2020-01-28 16:01:38 UTC https://padlet.com/cptakach/xzgx1ullvx7i/wish/437053219 https://padlet.com/cptakach/xzgx1ullvx7i/wish/437093073 I used to think it was tokenizing to mention diverse perspectives without going into more depth (e.g., heritage month type activities). Now I think that giving all students the opportunity to see themselves and be celebrated even if it is a small way can be a jumping off point for deeper conversations, engaging and connecting students to the classroom community and each other. ]]> 2020-01-28 16:52:36 UTC https://padlet.com/cptakach/xzgx1ullvx7i/wish/437093073 https://padlet.com/cptakach/xzgx1ullvx7i/wish/437275200 I used to think that we delivered a curriculum that was balanced and utilized good practices observing other peoples. Now I think, that it can be even more diverse and effective by using the 5 criterion listed on the "Five Ways a Culturally Responsive Curriculum Impacts the Student Experience" sheet. ]]> 2020-01-28 21:22:57 UTC https://padlet.com/cptakach/xzgx1ullvx7i/wish/437275200
