A3: I am going to be intentional to provide time for open peer-led conversations & offer different pathways for sharing. Some don’t feel comfortable sharing in the whole group. #ditchbook

A3: To bring in equity of voice, I use tools like Flipgrid & Socrative. Some Ss don’t want the spotlight on them, but they still want to share their ideas even if they don’t raise their hands. #kidsdeserveit

To make this (or any) year successful for our students, we need each other. We need the support of our admins and colleagues. We need to partner with parents & families. #achieveitchat

A1: I plan to spend intentional time for students to explore personal identities and how students fit in and can be contributing change agents in their local & broader communities. Using Sarah Ahmed and Tiffany Jewell’s works to plan activities. #achieveitchat

This is the kind of growth mindset and thinking I hope my students can engage in and embrace fully this year. #ABAR #Equity #BackToSchool2020 How will you disrupt thinking?

A7: Working together as teams, even across school sites, to bring routines, consistency and simplicity for our students and their families. Also, using a variety of ways and tools to communicate with families and give students feedback. #G2Great

A6: Some fear that parents will complain or meddle. I think we should look to parents and families as assets, working to capitalize on their suggestions/considerations to improve ways we teach and help our students learn. #g2Great

A5: What I have the power to change as a teacher is bringing in stories and articles from multiple BIPOC perspectives. Hope to encourage my students to keep asking whose stories have I have yet not heard and what can I learn from these stories and ideas? #G2Great

A4: Moving into distance learning, it is critical to build trusting relationships with our students. I’m going to be intentional to make spaces for more conversations and minimize my teacher talk. #G2Great

A4: It took a pandemic for some educators to realize the value of attending to the social-emotional needs of our students. Any sort of trauma of stress has an impact on a student’s ability to engage and learn. #G2Great

A3: The pandemic made it all the more apparent of the inequities we have in our schools. We must be honest & ask ourselves: Who does the school actually represent? Who we value? What damage has been done and need to be addressed? #G2Great

A2: We still do not tap into our greatest resource in schools- students! How often do we ask them to guide us on what changes should be made to make learning relevant and engaging? #G2Great
