Description / Descripción
In order to have thoughtful dialogue, we need to create opportunities to develop a mindset of curiosity and inquiry. By blending personal stories and diverse literature into the curriculum, teachers can approach sensitive topics and address assumptions and misconceptions about different places and cultures. Reading fosters empathy and allows us to see and hear others’ perspectives, insights, and questions while advancing our own understanding. Join us as we broaden perspectives through engaging literature and compelling conversations.
