Many schools have found their equity efforts interrupted as a result of the COVID-19 crisis. But with crisis also comes opportunity to rethink how we “do school”.

Join me in this series of webinars to support you in your efforts to be responsive to students and families during this time of distance learning.

Our driving inquiry question throughout each webinar will be: How do we move beyond the packet mentality to truly help students become independent learners while leveraging the funds of knowledge at home and in their immediate community?

I want to share doable learning activities to help you offer real support to our most vulnerable students.

Museum Launches FREE Online Curriculum

When you come to a fork in the road, take it. - Yogi Berra
 
Dear Friends,

We're here at the fork. While the doors to the Yogi Berra Museum & Learning Center are temporarily closed, our commitment to sustaining Yogi's values has never been stronger. Respect, teamwork, perseverance, humility - these are the qualities that will see us through this crisis. Together.
 
That's why we're launching the first part of a brand-new ONLINE EDUCATION CURRICULUM that is FREE for teachers, parents, grandparents, caregivers and students - anyone with internet has access.
  • Lesson plans for middle and high school students leverage sports as an engaging vehicle for online learning.
  • Unit topics include IMMIGRATION and RACE, with additional subject areas to come.
  • Activities, print-outs, videos, photos and supplementary resources are included.
Our hope is that these online lesson plans will help sustain Yogi's legacy of respect and kindness - a legacy too big to be contained within the walls of one Museum - as we weather this as one team. In other words:
 
"It ain't over..."
