Orientación para padres
Abby Weiss wisely reminds us, "We take seriously the responsibility for helping teachers navigate what's happening in the world right now." This sentiment holds true for exploring history, which often involves sensitive and challenging conversations.
In this class, we prioritize creating a safe and respectful space where all students feel comfortable expressing their thoughts and feelings. We embrace diverse perspectives and encourage thoughtful dialogue. By utilizing a variety of resources, narratives, and fostering open communication, we believe that everyone contributes to the collective learning experience.
To ensure a productive and inclusive environment, we establish and reinforce clear guidelines for conversation at the beginning of every class:
Be Respectful: Value and honor the perspectives of others, even if you disagree.
Be Open-Minded: Approach discussions with curiosity and a willingness to learn from different viewpoints.
Consider the Context: Understand the historical and social context surrounding the topic at hand.
Use "I" Statements: Express your thoughts and feelings using "I" statements to avoid generalizations or assumptions about others.
Apply the THINK Rule: Before speaking, ask yourself if your comment is True, Helpful, Inspiring, Necessary, and Kind.
This course addresses sensitive historical themes, including depictions of slavery, violence, and language that may be challenging for younger audiences. All such content is presented with thoughtful consideration for its historical context and educational value, avoiding any unnecessary graphic detail or prolonged focus. We strongly encourage parents to review the syllabus and consider their child's maturity level before enrolling in this course.
Ultimately, the educator reserves the right to moderate discussions in a way that fosters the best possible learning experience for all students.
