What do you do when you want to infuse Indigenous voices and stories into your practice but you don’t know how? Where do you even begin? Join us as we learn from Educator Exemplars featured in Wisconsin First Nations who are committed to integrating Wisconsin First Nation Studies into their instructional practices throughout the year. Together we will discover how these inspiring teachers have built relationships, used resources, and leveraged the possibilities of both to engage and enhance the experiences of learners in their classrooms and schools. We’ll hold space for reflection on the guidance gained, and time to outline our own intentions for carrying the work forward with those we teach.

In this session you will:

Recognize the importance of infusing Indigenous voices into learning spaces throughout the school year
Work of fellow Wisconsin educators to integrate First Nations studies into their practices throughout the year
Reflect and connect understandings of the approaches and efforts of our colleagues to our own practices as educators
