Hard History in Hard Times – Talking With Teachers

Teaching Hard History

In this special call-in episode, listeners share their stories and questions from throughout season 2—including teaching remotely, working with families and stakeholders, and incorporating social justice into subjects like math and science. As educators, we’re strongest when we support each other.

And you’ll hear great suggestions from fellow teachers, like these resources we discuss from Fairfax County Public Schools in Virginia:

• Changes in Population (PDF 800 KB)
• Dos and Don’ts of Teaching About Race, Culture, and Identity (PDF 130 KB)
• The Role of Virginians During the Civil War (PDF 1.4 MB)
• The Role of Virginians in the Founding of the New Nation (PDF 970 KB)

Of course, you'll find more even more resources, links and a complete transcript on our website.
