This year heralds one of the biggest standards revisions in state history, with new expectations for educators to speak to "Indigenous ways of knowing" in the science curriculum, the structure and organization of tribal governments in social studies, books by Minnesota Indigenous authors in literature, and more. Dr. Anton Treuer will help participants navigate the new standards revision and familiarize them with new tools available to make their job more effective and less stressful, including but not limited to new publications produced as part of the Understand Native Minnesota campaign, the Minnesota Partnership for Collaborative Curriculum, and a host of new publications and voices. We'll not just inventory the growing field, but look at some specific examples to help with the application of new content to the new standards and field questions about cultural appreciation, cultural appropriation, and education for all in the age of racial reckoning.

Anton Treuer joins the staff at Warroad Public Schools for this PD experience.
