Week 1 focus: Laying the foundation - week one's focus is more about what makes us, us!
The different aspects of our identity, therefore week one is centered around intersectionality.
This week students will explore that everyone has their own unique identity that intersect to
make us who we are. As a class we will explore all the different facets of identity - race,
gender, culture, and ability to get us ready to deep dive into more specifics within week 2.
Week 2: This week’s focus will center around difference. Throughout the week students will
engage with a multitude of texts, activities, media, songs, etc to guide them on the path of
understanding difference to celebrating it. This week in particular we will look more closely
with ideas of diversity and difference. I will frame my contexts
through a differentiated and multi model
approach. Introducing the topic of diversity
and disability through multiple formats will
also show students how “one size” does not fit
all, and catering to your individual needs is
necessary - this will really allow students to see what inclusion is
really all about.
