C134 (Book Club): Supporting Culturally Responsive Relationships with our Learners (pg 72-87) Confessions of a PYP Teacher
-
- Self-Improvement
Something I’ve been thinking about has been learner relationships and why they are not the primary focus in many elementary classrooms. Usually within the first month of school, teachers are building systems and routines of how the classroom will operate, but do they really take the time to get to know their learners personally? Zaretta Hammond points out, “Too often though, we ignore the quality of our interactions with students and instead focus primarily on the curriculum.”
In this episode, we will explore how to build more authentic relationships that help us to affirm and validate our learners.
