Teaching for Today: Building a More Inclusive World Language Curriculum
Saturday November 2, 2024 10:05am - 10:55am EDT
Room 215
Did you know that according to 2020 data, the US Department of Education found that students other than white collectively made up more than 50% of the K-12 Public School population? – This marks a historic demographic shift in US public school education. How can the growing diversity of the world, country, and student body be reflected naturally and authentically in the world language classroom? Using Spanish as an example, we can examine various cultural intersections and practical strategies for classroom implementation. This will not only increase the visibility of marginalized groups in the classroom and create a more inclusive space, but also create global and empathetic citizens, helping them to interact with cultural competency and understanding.

-Participants will have a workbook and a customized password protected webpage with resources related to the conference
-We will walk through how to build a warm up activity that reflects cultural intersectionality in the classroom & each teacher should walk out the session with a warm up they can use in class
