Check out my Shopify Store: https://culturally-relevant-teaching.myshopify.com DIVERSITY & RACIAL JUSTICE In response to recent protests and events led by students of color (SOC) across the nation CRT is a educational platform for tackling issues of race, such as the historic omission of SOC in higher education & public education; countering public schools' "Banking Concept" of teaching as addressed by Paulo Freire in his book Pedagogy of the Oppressed; identifying and improving school climates that often include racial micro and macroagressions; and a lack of Ethnic Studies curriculum which has been proven to increase the recruitment, retention and mental health of minoritized SOC. ​ CRT TEACHER RESOURCES ​CRT will provide teachers resources in various research-based best practices in culturally, socially, and historically responsive/sustainable/empowering pedagogical advancements that are highly effective with traditionally marginalized and underserved SOC populations, specifically with and for Xican@/Latin@ youth. These resources are for teachers at the K-5, 6-8, 9-12 levels in the areas of English/language arts and History/social science. ​ ​These teacher resources and pedagogy approaches consist of: ​1) overall pedagogical frameworks that can be implemented in the classroom. ​2) pedagogy application that work with specific curriculum units. ​3) pedagogy application that are specific to particular lessons. ​ ​ CURRICULUM DEVELOPMENT ​CRT will develop academically rigorous Common CORE and state aligned curriculum units that are culturally, socially, and historically responsive in the areas of English/language arts and History/social studies. ​ ​Finally, a Curricular Scope and Sequence framework for English/language arts and/or History/social science can be developed. This Curricular Scope and Sequence provides the school district/instructors with a curricular guide wherein educators can implement the individual curriculum units within the larger curricular framework.
