Teacher Voice

[/fusion_text][fusion_text]

EdFirst and NoVo Foundation launched selforteachers.org to elevate teachers’ answers to questions of practice confronting the SEL field.  Social media conversation: #SELforTeachers. They also have an open RFP for teacher- and district-led projects that foster social and emotional skills in students in grades PK-12. RFP and application materials are here.  The deadline for applications is Friday, April 20 at 5:00pm PT.  Please circulate to your networks.

[/fusion_text][fusion_text]

A research synthesis by the Mindset Scholars Network explains that mindsets are shaped by the social environment and systemic inequity: “The environments educators create in schools in collaboration with families and integrated community partners can be ‘motivating’ or ‘demotivating’ in their design.  We can sustain people’s natural drive to learn—or we can undermine it.”  Read the full brief here.

The Funder Collaborative for Youth Organizing invites funders to join its new Youth for Safety and Justice Fund.  This fund will focus on efforts that employ a racial justice lens and connect gun violence to other forms of systemic injustice.  It will look to connect young people across race and class to build unity and broader political power.

FCYO also recently published Transforming Young People and Communities: New Findings on the Impacts of Youth Organizing, exploring how involvement in youth organizing contributes to the social-emotional and academic development of young people in powerful ways, while also promoting their civic and community engagement.
