Open to: All Teachers
Opportunity at a Glance: Fellow educators and curriculum author, Dr. Habiba Noor and Alex Tronolone will present a curated selection of oral histories and activities that enable students to recognize the feelings and perspectives of other people. Featured oral histories that touch on the memories of childhood from a narrator facing the challenges of being the lone Muslim in class, or navigating cultural differences as a first generation American will be the catalyst for educators to practice using oral histories as a tool to build empathy and listening skills in the classroom.
Key dates: Wednesday, December 9, 5:30 p.m. – 7:00 p.m.
