Our powerpoint presentation on Central High: CRP.pdf

 My goals for understanding the community I am student teaching in:

• Learn about the community’s history and try to incorporate it in my history classroom
• Talk with long time teacher at school about school and community
• Be visible and attend sporting and other events at the school
• Try to engage parents in meaningful ways, communicating with them frequently, writing a letter of introduction
• Try to engage in the community in real ways—use services in community, like get hair cut there
• I would like to communicate the principles that:
  • I am genuinely interested in your community
  • I do not intend to be a threat to your community
  • I genuinely want to help your students learn history and become empowered learners
