The Role of Native and Non-Native Teachers in Selecting Children’s Literature by Native Authors
Our contribution to the Occasional Paper Series is driven by the editors request for articles that will provide readers with an opportunity to learn how to use Indigenous Children’s and Young Adult Literature (ICYAL) texts responsibly. In our experience, children encounter far too much anti-Indigeneity in literature, and therefore the classroom.. Before using a book, a teacher must select the book they plan to use in the classroom. If the teacher is seeking to “provide opportunities for students to develop interpersonal relationships between real live kids and those who live only on the page,” (Leitich Smith, 2020) we think it is crucial that teachers consider the identity of the book’s author. We also think it is imperative that teachers choose books by Native writers
#41: Hope and Innovation in School Leadership
Library Salon #41 features a conversation between Bank Street alum Patricia M. Virella, GSE \u2717 and faculty member Jessica Blum-DeStefano on Crisis as Catalyst, exploring how challenges can drive transformative leadership within schools and communities. The talk will draw on stories from the book and the lived experiences of Bank Street’s Principal\u27s Institute alumni, each of whom has led teams through moments of crisis to foster equity, hope, and authentic change.
Following the main talk, an interactive panel brings together program alumni featured in the book. These school leaders will share field-tested practices, candidly discuss lessons learned, and offer perspectives shaped by Bank Street’s commitment to equity-minded, child-centered leadership.https://educate.bankstreet.edu/librarysalons/1040/thumbnail.jp
