Join colleagues in exploring the FAIR Act and its implications for curriculum planning!
Join other Bay Area teachers in this workshop sponsored by the Santa Clara County Office of Education in partnership with the UC Berkeley History-Social Science Project. The session will help teachers explore and start implementing the FAIR Act, with an emphasis on the Frameworkâs encouragement of inquiry and student engagement.
The FAIR Education Act requires that California K-12 schools provide Fair, Accurate, Inclusive and Respectful representations of people with disabilities and people who are lesbian, gay, bisexual or transgender in history and social studies curriculum. Aided by Professor Rouse from the Social-Science Education Program at San Jose State University, this session will explore the FAIR Act and present sample FAIR Act units and lessons. Work time is built into the session and teachers will be supported while explore these and other FAIR Act resources and lesson plans.
