In this session, we figure out how to win over the \"middle third\" of parents who doubt that their children should be thoughtfully discussing race.","Description":"This session encourages teachers to think of ways to respond authentically and deliberately to arguments that various bad actors make to discourage the practice of leading race conversations in the elementary classroom. We will unpack and prepare responses to three separate arguments. In the second part of the session, Jen will lead a model conversation about a children\u2019s book - and teachers will practice designing their own conversation about the same text.","Link":["http:\/\/www.notlight.com"],"Audience":["High School","Middle School","Elementary School"],"Practice":"Discussion and Case Study","Presenter":["Matthew Kay","Jennifer Orr"],"PresenterAffiliation":["SLA","Stenhouse Publishers","ASCD"],"PresenterEmail":["mrkay@notlight.com","jenorr@gmail.com"],"ScheduleSlotID":182,"ScheduleLocationID":26,"SubmitterID":79,"AdditionalComments":null,"LiveChannel":null,"Hashtag":null,"VokleID":null,"RecordingURL":null,"ConferenceID":12}}
