Event Description
This summer, we will be using Dr. Gholdy Muhammad's book "Cultivating Genius: An Equity Framework for Culturally and Historically Responsive Literacy" as one option for a base of K-12 social studies curriculum work. It occurred to me that some professional learning and discussions on the book would support learning across the state. Dr. Muhammad outlines five components of authentic student engagement: Identity, Skill, Intellectual Connection, Criticality, and Joy. Her work goes beyond the general curricular focus on content and skills, adding in the pieces of the social and political context of the students’ communities.
The three sessions will NOT be the same - it will be different content. These will not be recorded, to protect the privacy of our attendees. With registration, you will receive a calendar hold for each session, with a Zoom link.
Bootcamp Book Club will meet the following times:
Wed June 23 from 1-2pm
Wed July 7 from 1-2pm
Wed July 14 from 1-2pm
Registration will close one on June 16, 2021, to ensure time to get information and links to all attendees.
