The Missing Voice One Woman Show
The importance of promoting student voice and student empowerment for engagement in education
How many students feel as if they are "missing"---merely names on a list? With over fifteen years in education, I've encountered many "missing voices." In this session, participants will witness a "missing voice" monologue in the "voice" of the voiceless---from Educator/Dramatist Carlo Dawson. Mrs. Dawson will provide attendees with differentiation teaching strategies for all subjects to close the achievement gap.
Objective: The workshop lessons and strategies will equip teacher leaders with tools to foster student critical thinking, problem solving, creativity, communication, and collaboration skills along with academic subject mastery all while increasing student interest. (That's right! You will see increased student engagement when applying this proven approach.)
