1. Understand how to continue to foster and support the student-teacher relationship through Black History Month.
-Do introduce positive stories. Do connect with students’ culture. Do facilitate safe-space conversations.
-Don’t spotlight Black students. Don’t focus on traumatic events. Don’t be afraid to tackle uncomfortable content. Don’t be afraid to ask for help.
-Learn to incorporate Black history and culture into your teaching all year round, not just during February!
