@profe_z#EDU6595 great idea Calli! regardless of where you stand, everyone just wants to feel comfortable, so lets find ways to ensure schools are safe and accessible to all students.
@profe_z Great resource and personal accounts! @GLSEN would be a great resource for teachers and administrators developing educational resources for faculty.
Asking your students about their experiences is 1 way to connect and create a more student centered classroom! See the form (in comments) I made for my students. Getting to know your students is important! If students feel heard and seen, they will engage.#edu6595#UDL
Mandatory Training is one action schools can take to educate teachers on the #lifeofLGBTQ. Training should focus on the discrimination and victimization they may face, laws protecting youth, and tools and knowledge to stop bullying. #EDU6595#Culturallyresonsivepedagogy
Regardless of your political views, culture, religious views, educators have a responsibility to serve all your students and to protect them while they are in school. You can start by reflecting on your own culture and how your bias affect your students. #edu6595
Teaching students to accept differences through reflection on their own culture and bias is one way to create an inclusive environment, but first the teachers must self reflect on their own culture and bias. #EDU6595#culturallyresponsivepedagogy

"it is essential for educators to understand that they do not get to choose which youth are deserving of an education or which youth are entitled to safety in walking down a school corridor. Their responsibility is to act" -@PayneElizabethe

@apotter1409 Yes! Also, joining a board and being a voice for underserved students would be a great way to put the CRP certificate to good use! #EDU6595#CRP
#educurrentissues great ideas to consider. I am thankful for this time with my son. We are planting our garden, baking, reading, playing, working out...TOGETHER! Math, problem solving, reading, and writing can all be incorporated in these activities!
