Advancing Literacy

Teachers, coaches, administrators! Join Amanda Hartman and Carl Ciaramitaro for an in-depth virtual series: Bringing Culturally Responsive Pedagogy into Your Writing Workshop, Read-Alouds, and Across Your Day, Grades K-5. You can join for 1 day, or all 5!

This is a study group for teachers to look deeply at their teaching and instruction and to learn how to reflect and use culturally responsive pedagogy to anchor their decisions. We will work together as a group to study ways we plan, teach and respond to students to reflect on how we can show up in our classrooms. Each of these days will study deeply both culturally responsive pedagogy and practical applications in the classroom. We will study our methods of teaching, content and materials we bring to students to build more inclusive practices for our students. We will also think about these practices for ourselves as educators as well. Educators will have space to explore and dig into their own experiences to grow a deep understanding of self and to think about ways to connect to the students and families in their communities.
