Gholdy Muhammad
Dr. Muhammad will offer a unique, culturally, and historically responsive approach for literacy instruction using an equity framework to cultivate genius and joy.

- Identity Development: Helping youth to make sense of who they are and others
- Literacy Skill Development: Developing proficiencies across the content areas
- Intellectual Development: Gaining knowledge through literacy practices
- Criticality: Developing the ability to read texts to understand power, equity, and anti-oppression
- Joy! Helping youth to see the joy in themselves and others
10:30 am - 12:15 pm - Part Two: Building Reading-Writing-Thinking Relationships
Participants will:
- learn strategies for engaging students in building the reading-writing-thinking relationship
- discover approaches for teaching literacy and vocabulary across all the content areas
- learn ways to integrate cultural, racial, and historical perspectives into learning goals, lesson plans, and text selection
- review sample lesson plans across grade levels
