Welcome to another deep dive into the fabulous book, Culturally Responsive Teaching and the Brain by Zaretta Hammond. This week will be full of insights about ourselves. Are you ready to go deep into your practice? To be honest, this chapter left me with a feeling of being exposed, but that is the process of recognizing how our beliefs and behaviors shape cultural responsiveness or not. Yikes, we went there already, but this is all part of our growth into becoming more aware educators while honoring the things we are doing well.
This episode will explore how culture has shaped our view of our learners. Hammond asks some deep questions that have sparked my reflection and hopefully yours.
