Offered through a special collaboration with the Minnesota Department of Education, this year's workshops include half-day sessions focused on Teaching for Justice and Equity within the Common Core Standards.
Three questions will guide the sessions in this series:
• January 25th, 2014: What is a social justice approach to teaching literacy?
• February 22nd, 2014: How do teachers incorporate themes of justice and equity into their subjects while meeting the CCSS?
• March 29th, 2014: How do teachers respond successfully to the challenges of incorporating a social justice approach to teaching?
All workshops are led by practicing educators affiliated with the Minnesota Writing Project. For more information see the registration form attached below.
