@MatKone2 I'm looking for someone who lived through Apartheid and would be willing to speak with my students. Do you have any suggestions?

[Virginia Little @Virginiaelittle]

Still searching for someone who grew up in South Africa during Apartheid who would be willing to talk to my students, if anyone has any ideas. #Eloned #SSchat #Sharebrilliance @TheDailyShow

Does anyone know of anyone who lived through #Apartheid that would be willing to come and talk to my students at some point? #Eloned #Sharebrilliance @TheDailyShow

#overheardinthecrc Oh my gosh, I can't wait for my hoolla hoop. I think I should just go home now #eloned

The Social Studies Praxis exam study guide is the most Eurocentric piece of teaching material I have come across. Talk about getting to the root of the problem... #eloned

@samcollins999 @scomorrison @roth_allie @Charlottem33 this interview is awesome! #Eloned

@MrDpasion Claro que sí

A6: Ts can work with the school translator to translate as many of the materials as possible, especially the ones that go home. Sadly, so much of it is effort because there has been so little in the past #eloned

[Virginia Little @Virginiaelittle]

@Courtintheclass Tell me about it. I have already been warned multiple times by other Ts #eloned

[Virginia Little @Virginiaelittle]

@samcollins999 Why did you say this so much better than me?

[Virginia Little @Virginiaelittle]

A5: Every decision we make about pedagogy is political in one way or another. Deciding what to teach and what to leave out sends a message. I've been thinking a lot lately about Eurocentric history and how it effects Ss of color #eloned

[Virginia Little @Virginiaelittle]

@Courtintheclass Thanks girl!

[Virginia Little @Virginiaelittle]

@amburkoed I'm a student, but I would love to give the Ss a time to show me their passions and what they love about their cultures. I find that, as a future SS teacher there are all kinds of connections to be drawn across cultures and knowing their specific cultures is so helpful #ElonEd

[Virginia Little @Virginiaelittle]

A4: I am a huge fan of introduction projects. I want to know about my students and where they come from. And I want it to be i na medium that they enjoy/ feel comfortable with #ElonEd

Q3: It is the practice of educating students without snuffing out their home culture. This needs to be taken into account with all students (UDL), which is something i was just thinking about

[Virginia Little @Virginiaelittle]

A3: It looks like students getting to build upon and share aspects of their culture so that everyone gets to learn and enjoy it #ElonEd

@DrCowdrick Do you teach ESL or is this the general ed classroom?

[Virginia Little @Virginiaelittle]

@scomorrison I was very impressed with my students. You have heard me talk about them, but they did come to the conclusion that people did not have to learn English to be American #ElonEd
