If you feel frustrated because you want students to feel valued and connected to your required ELA curriculum resource in your school but you’re not sure how to do it then this workshop is for you. It will provide you with strategies to help all students feel represented in your curriculum, see others’ perspectives, and value similarities to others’ experiences.

To get there, we will discuss why is it important to integrate diverse perspectives in students’ learning experiences. Then we will find entry points in the curriculum that invite students’ voices into the space. We’ll also explore ways to remove and supplement texts and incorporate short reads as a tool to make connections with students’ lives in the curriculum lesson/units. Finally, we will share ways to sustain this without losing too much sleep.
