Hey, all,

I hope you are well.  Many of you know that I have had the privilege of
facilitating K-8 teacher communities of practice focused on integrating
AAPI studies during this school year in preparation for the legislation
focused on this integration to officially launch in school year 2025-2026.
A group of teachers from the first semester community of practice will be
sharing the work that they have done in their school community this coming
Wednesday, May 3.  Please join us on Zoom from 5:30-6:30 pm.  Check out the
attached flyer and register through this link:

Quick description of the session (about 30 minutes of presentation and 30
minutes for Q&A/collab):
AAPI Studies Integration in Elementary School Classrooms
Jess, Lauren, Lisa, and Trish are teachers at East Haddam Elementary.
During the first semester, they participated in an AAPI studies teacher
community of practice, and worked together to integrate AAPI studies across
their classrooms through intentional text selection, as well as having
their students practice inquiry skills through oral history interviewing of
community members and authors.  Please join us to learn about their process
and work in preparation for the education legislative mandate that launches
in school year 2025-2026 with K-12 AAPI studies integration in CT public
schools and more importantly, to ensure all students have windows and
mirrors in their school community.

I hope you can join us!  Please feel free to share with other K-8
educators, especially classroom teachers!
