Our Modern Classrooms Project educators have worked hard to cultivate blended, self-paced, mastery-based learning environments to meet the unique needs of their students. Our instructional model uses technology to amplify educators’ impacts while retaining their authenticity.

Reevaluate the curriculum. Understand privilege and power. Interrogate institutional practices. Here's what anti-racism work should look like for white educators in predominantly white schools.

My Monday afternoons are now spent with these amazing #HomewoodFamily members reading How to be an Antiracist and challenging ourselves to challenge the system. So thankful for the leadership of Q, Brit, Chapman and Nes and for the 30 staff spending their summer growing.

Publicly “calling out” disengaged kids rarely works. They are most likely disengaged because they feel inadequate. Calling them out in public only amplifies their feelings of inadequacy. Focus on deescalation and have the harder conversation without a crowd.

Many students who have grown up in poverty have been conditioned to question authority figures. Not because they want to, but because authority figures haven’t always had their best interest in mind. Don’t be frustrated by your kids’ skepticism, instead listen to understand.

What truly makes our country great is its diversity. I’ve seen that beauty in so many ways over the years. Whether we are born here or seek refuge here, there’s a place for us all. We must remember it’s not my America or your America. It’s our America.

Data driven decision making... When looking at data, we must never take it at face value. Behind the numbers there are stories, and those stories can give us the wisdom needed to move forward. #education

We're Constantly Checking On Students, But What About the Teachers? https://t.co/IcvE2tJsFX

[Kareem Farah @Kareemfarah23]

When students are suffering with trauma, they don’t want to hear about how poorly they are performing in class. Before addressing an academic concern, carefully assess what is driving the lack of engagement. Otherwise you might be pushing someone who is already at their limit.
