Parental Guidance
Dear Parents: We will be discussing enslavement, emancipation, injustices, segregation, and racism. There are links and resources to look over and use for class. Please share your experiences, memories, race, and ethnicity with your student if applicable. Also, please consider if adult supervision is needed for the art projects and food segment.
Adults know their learners' capabilities. Parents or adults can assist children off screen. I recommend that you cover your learner's work station and provide gloves or wipes for the paint sessions.
The recipe calls strawberries and lemonade. Please consider optional food choices if there are any known allergens. We will have a celebration drink and/or snack on last day. Thank you.

Teacher expertise and credentials
Illinois Teaching Certificate
I am an experienced teacher and have taught several classes related to racism, segregation, enslavement, and Culinary Arts on Outschool. Juneteenth is an often overlooked but significant holiday in American History. However, many families are unfamiliar with the celebration. Our first Juneteenth Camp was online in 2020. As an educator and mom, I developed a 5-day program to help learners experience Juneteenth through art, food, and activities.
