PD on Culturally Sustaining and Revitalizing Pedagogies

This Graduate Project offers a professional development (PD) on culturally sustaining and revitalizing pedagogies (CSRP) as a necessary lens through which elementary school teachers can disrupt the historical marginalization that has and still occurs in education today, as well as the colonizing practices that often permeate today's educational spheres. The Project presents a ten-day PD series designed to reach and prepare elementary educators with topics that are designed to be effective and purposeful in the elementary setting. Each day provides historical information, activities, and opportunities to reflect on best teaching practices for the educators who participate. This PD intends to support the sometimes convoluted discussion on race, culture, and language in the classroom and provide teachers with the knowledge and tools they need to begin implementing CSRP effectively.
