- Language and Power summit 2: Nov 19th, 4-7 pm
“Participants will explore and reflect on routines and classroom practices around language use within the context of systemic and interpersonal power dynamics in order to improve a sense of belonging for students in BPS. Each session will afford participants an opportunity to hear from “Humble experts” around BPS who have demonstrated exemplary teaching and reflective practices. Each 3-hour summit will include: whole group framing activities, a panel discussion led by BPS teachers as they talk about their practice and a shared reading, affinity-based table group discussions, and structured time to collaboratively plan applications of learning. ”Links:
