Culturally Sustaining Pedagogy: Practical Tools for all Disciplines - November 20, 2026 will introduce practical ways to design lessons grounded in culturally sustaining pedagogy that build on students’ lived experiences, invite meaningful discussion, and support rigorous learning in any content area. Participants will engage in hands-on activities adaptable for all disciplines, including math, science, technology, and humanities. We will explore how key instructional moves can increase student engagement, deepen understanding, and honor the diverse identities and perspectives students bring to the classroom. Participants will leave with ready-to-use tools, strategies, and ideas they can apply immediately in their own classrooms.
