17th Annual Northwest Teaching for Social Justice Conference

Participants will view examples of lessons and student work in which primary grade students are guided in critically analyzing the basis of capitalism using visuals, storytelling, manipulatives, and role playing, and hands on activities, and connecting to the history of the Portland Black Panther Party and contemporary local mutual aid organizations. Participants will have access to more example lessons to view asynchronously, and have time to discuss with grade-level colleagues how to use similar strategies to make abstract concepts concrete for their learners.
