Thank you to my fellow #gcc203 classmates and all of your lessons on cultures we could see in our future classrooms! You all did great jobs and it was an eye opening experience for me. So much information to keep in mind for the future. #gccedu
After learning more about Latinx learners I would have to say my biggest take away was how vastly different all the students can be. Also I learned that Latinx is a more neutral term which I think is supper cool and a great thing to keep in mind #gcc203
Along with the homeless community the LGBTQ+ community deserves the education we have and resources we can give them. As educators and Christians we are called to love one another and we should try and help them as much as possible #gcc203
After learning about the homeless community and how we can teach them it is clear to me that as teachers and Christians we should strive to provide all of our students equal opportunities for education #gcc203
I loved learning how we should take each child as an individual and not as a culture. Especially with Arab American students, we need to avoid the stereotypes and love on all of our children #gcc203
I loved learning more about Asian Indian students in the classroom. My biggest take away was that they place a large bond on family and the success of the children, this is something that needs to be thought about in our future classrooms #gcc203
My biggest take away from a classmates presentation on Asian American students is that they could have a low self esteem. With this we as teachers really need to think about the model minority and how we could possibly be putting unneeded pressure on them #gcc203
Native American students need the support of their community in the classroom and we as teachers should strive to include them. Along with this African American students really strive when they have a sense of community and are able to perform with the rest of the class #gcc203
I loved reading through this article about ELLs success. This really goes to show we as teachers need to think more about what and who we are testing. In order to see improvement you can remove those who we know have improved #gcc203

In CRP we have been talking about racism and this is a great article that is a reminder that it is still going on today. Also a great reminder to teachers on things that we are doing without thinking that might could be hurting some of our students #gcc203

These six questions are the heart of unit design. Teachers’ thoughtful answers to these questions help ensure that students will progress through a well-articulated continuum of knowledge that is integrated with the knowledge addressed in other units.
As final approach for us #gccedu students and teachers have the end in sight it is important to remember this verse. I hope this brings you some encouragement on this Friday! Have a great Friday and weekend, take some time to breath!
#THEBOOKCHAT It was great hearing what all you guys took from this book. I can not wait to read it over the summer! Than you for a great chat and sorry I couldn't add more. I hope you all have a great night and I will have to put this on my list of chats to try and get into more!
A5: Sometimes we need a metaphor to make sense of the world. Like poetry, the true connection with God comes from within. Others can inspire, and they might lead to your own insight, but true poetry, like a relationship with God, comes from our interpretation of life #THEBOOKCHAT
