Engaging and Supporting All Students in Learning. Teachers know and care about their students in order to engage them in learning. They connect learning to students’ backgrounds, life experiences, and interests. They connect subject matter to meaningful, real-life contexts.
From young families to experienced ones, participants will be challenged to learn about racism and its consequences, how our identities influence our lens, how to talk about human differences with children of all ages, and how to live a life that embodies diversity and inclusion.
We complement our Anthropological approach with the principles of Cultural Humility. Cultural Humility: to humbly reflect on one’s own personal and systemic biases, and to recognize oneself as a learner when it comes to understanding an other’s experience. Together, we can be open to learning, accepting and respecting human differences.
