Encouraging DEI Through Critical Thinking with Literature

Monday, December 6, 2021 ⬥ 2:15 – 3:15 PM
Presented by Karen Streeter and Ruth Okoye

Session Description:

Let us introduce you to the thought process behind our book club for teachers. We used trade books, critical thinking skills, and reading strategies when helping teachers plan to spark conversations about diversity and inclusion during language arts instruction. You’ll find opportunities to think critically about identity, bias, stereotypes and empathy and use tech tools to facilitate activities throughout the reading and writing cycle when you join us for this session.
