How can we cultivate our young students' civic identity, knowledge, skills, and dispositions so they are prepared to be active and thoughtful members of our democracy? In this interactive workshop, led by Laura Brenner, Education Director at Discovering Justice, participants will engage with the history and social science practice standards as well as Discovering Justice’s new Children Discovering Justice Curriculum to deepen your understanding of and practice with integrating civic knowledge, skills, and dispositions into social studies and across the school day. We will explore concepts like perspective taking and issues of equity and justice. There will be opportunities to talk to your colleagues and gain some tips and tools to use with your students.
