On behalf of the ethnic studies team, we are offering resources to be used with students to critically engage with the events that led up to our Nation’s transition of power. From the Capitol insurrection to the Inauguration in the midst of a Pandemic, it is important to make space for students to process and connect with history happening in real time.

Creating Space for Learners
Lesson Plans & Resources
We had a question come up about Thanksgiving and how we can teach this in a more accurate way, so here was what we came up with from our collective genius.
Here is also a website “A Racial Justice Guide to Thanksgiving” that could be helpful with some books as well. This is a resource for teachers to support the well-being, questions, and action-taking of students after the election. Many of us have built and designed lessons and conversations leading up to the election, but what will we say on November 4th? How will we create a space that affirms each and every one of our students in the wake of the results? How will the adults in the "building" support each other?
Below are resources and frameworks that can help facilitate conversations, as well as lean on each other for community and support. |
