Virtual Event: Teacher Planning Kit for New School Routines
Event Information
About this Event
Educators, Happy New Year! One of our goals for 2021 is to support you all in the best way that we can - by providing teacher made and approved resources that will help you through the hurdles of your year. This Planning Kit is packed with resources, just like our last Planning Kit, that you can use in your classrooms and to better engage some of your students who have limited or no access to the internet, and no matter your new school routine.
In this one hour webinar, PBS Digital Innovator All-Stars Mariana Athayde, Crystal Monteiro, Gabe Garcia, and Warren Wise will review the new kit, and discuss how you can use it to plan upcoming lessons. They’ll also highlight dozens of great resources and lessons you can use with your students—regardless of grade level—about the importance of bringing conversations about race, racial justice and advocacy into your classrooms.
Using inspiration from PBS KIDS TALK ABOUT: RACE AND RACISM, our Edfluencers will provide teaching strategies through an Advocacy Workshop and ways to discuss systemic racism though POV’s THROUGH THE NIGHT, directed by Loira Limbal. We hope you’ll join us, and also provide feedback about how we can continue to support you and your teaching practice. This webinar is for teachers of all grades: PreK-12.
PBS will provide a certificate of attendance for this one hour virtual learning event.

More about our Teacher Planning Kit For New School Routines:
The PBS Teacher Planning Kit for New School Routines is an eight-week planning kit designed for PreK-12 teachers everywhere to help navigate this year’s new and changing school routines.
Making the most of PBS LearningMedia, and connecting closely with the support we’re offering to parents and families, these kits are intended to be used whether or not you’re delivering instruction in person, and whether or not your students have internet access.
Planning sheets are divided into three sections: Watch, Teach, Explore. “Watch” includes broadcast and/or online media. “Teach” connects activities, games and lessons directly to the featured media. “Explore” provides additional resources so teachers can plan a comprehensive lesson on a particular topic or theme.
