For my topic I focused some on the different Biomes from the world. This will allow students to have a connection to other places that have the same Biomes as Minnesota.
This is a place where students can go to see how school districts have changed. It has maps of the different years and the different school districts that were present. It is a great historical representation.
I have also added another site similar to this one. This is a place to go to find contact information for the Representatives from each area. Students can easily access this information for writing letters.
Besides the contact info (which is wonderful), this site has a section for kids, which teaches them various things about the senate and more. It also has teacher resources. This is a great site, one which could be very useful to a teacher,even if just to gain some knowledge.
After learning about so many different cultures in Human Resources I have learned that I didn't know a lot before. I am so glad that you added this site so that we can teach our students more about different cultures before they leave high school and get into the working environment.
If I had it to do over, I would have become an epidemiologist. Maps combined with public health. Science and education. Solution oriented research with direct social justice implications. Sell your students on this field with this lovely zombie apocalypse activity.
“In order to make classrooms physically, emotionally and mentally welcoming to all students, we have to be aware of ableist attitudes. And we must emphasize that disability is simply another difference, like race or gender.”
As teachers how can we honor all of our student regardless of race, disability, sexual orientation, or gender to make them feel empowered in the classroom?
the strongholds of racism that are embedded into school systems as tradition or practices that have been the bedrock of schooling for as long as any of us can remember.
A truly antiracist learning environment empowers all learners to make decisions about their learning and leading in a welcoming and safe environment.
Recognize the power structure that exists—both past and present.
Acknowledge the purposeful intent and actions of abolishing the limitations of the power structure at hand.
Reflect the code of honor by empowering each member of the learning community daily in the structures, supports, and choices available.
Make an effort to invite members of the learning community into positions of authority, power, and decision making—even if that means taking yourself out of power to do so.
Create opportunities for members of the learning community to make powerful decisions that govern their best possible outcomes.
