We often hear that "every kid belongs" or that we "value all learners at our school", but in many classrooms, the outcomes tell a different story. Too often school becomes a place where only certain students can succeed – those who can sit still, engage socially, speak in front of a group, or write on-demand.


What happens to the kids who are not these kinds of learners? They are often labeled, separated, and pushed out of general education.

In educational spaces, conversations about school-based equity are sometimes limited to superficial conversations on gender, race, or social class. Let's push beyond this surface level.


In this engaging session, we will:

- Explore how our pedagogy intersects with established biases about ability, gender, race, and social class

- Work to co-construct virtual and in-person classroom literacy experiences that fully embody our declared values of "every student"

- Examine classroom discourse, teacher moves, opportunities for student practice, processing, thinking strategies, and text type.
