CHitch94 Apr 2 @ 9:07 AM EDT

A1) As world history T, teaching about world religions is big part of the course. Think it's very important for Ss to learn. #nt2t

shyj - Moderator Apr 2 @ 9:08 AM EDT

A1: I do think we should be teaching about other cultures in school, religions being included. Need to educate to promote acceptance #NT2t

shyj - Moderator Apr 2 @ 9:08 AM EDT

@CHitch94 Awesome! #NT2t

A1 In social studies, we teach about the world's great religions but we don't teach religion. That's what I think should happen #NT2t

YuriKaragyozov Apr 2 @ 9:08 AM EDT

A1: I think it shouldn’t. Ss can learn to have values learning in school how to solve real life problems #NT2t

Erin_VandeKerk Apr 2 @ 9:08 AM EDT

shyj - Moderator Apr 2 @ 9:08 AM EDT

@Erin_VandeKerk Welcome to #NT2t Erin! Hope you are having a great weekend so far!

butterfli820 Apr 2 @ 9:09 AM EDT

I think teaching religion in the school I work at world be tricky, we are a very diverse school. I think religion is a home matter. #nt2t

steppitom Apr 2 @ 9:09 AM EDT

A1: definitely not the way it is done in Germany :/ #NT2t

MCPTechDirector Apr 2 @ 9:09 AM EDT

A1 #nt2t Speaking for public school, religion should be taught as a comparative subject to increase tolerance and understanding.

christineannroy Apr 2 @ 9:09 AM EDT

A1:teaching at a pre-dominantly Muslim school that was started by missionaries over a 100 years ago... we teach Islam and Christianity #NT2t

shyj - Moderator Apr 2 @ 9:07 AM EDT

Q1: Should religion be taught in school? #NT2t https://t.co/fHHmFHfSof

i_michaelsen Apr 2 @ 9:10 AM EDT

Q1: Multiculturalism is taught (as much as possible) in schools. The same approach for religion would be good! #NT2t

kesselpa Apr 2 @ 9:10 AM EDT

A1 No, never ever. because 1. the school should be a complete neutral place 2. state and church are seperated so should schools be 1/3 #nt2t

kesselpa Apr 2 @ 9:10 AM EDT

A1 3/3 instead of teaching false things like creationism,... we should teach Ss true things like evolution, which are reasonable #nt2t

kesselpa Apr 2 @ 9:10 AM EDT

A1 2/3 Ethics should be taught instead of religion, the only place where also non-religious Ss can feel comfortable #nt2t

shyj - Moderator Apr 2 @ 9:10 AM EDT

@YuriKaragyozov @christineannroy I wanna come too! #NT2t

Stanton_Lit Apr 2 @ 9:10 AM EDT

A1: Religion is part of culture and should therefore be taught. Easier to understand those beside you if you have all the information. #NT2t

Tiffany joining in from Alabama #nt2t

Erin_VandeKerk Apr 2 @ 9:10 AM EDT

butterfli820 Apr 2 @ 9:11 AM EDT

I guess we expose our Ss to different religions during our Multicultural Fair, each class studies and shares about one country. #nt2t

seni_bl Apr 2 @ 9:11 AM EDT

A1: knowledge about all religions, their practices should be taught. Subject can be social studies. #nt2t

shyj - Moderator Apr 2 @ 9:11 AM EDT

@seni_bl Hi Ines! Great to have you with us! #NT2t

i_michaelsen Apr 2 @ 9:11 AM EDT

DrHarrisonMcCoy Apr 2 @ 9:12 AM EDT

Good morning all. Chilly morning here in Texas. #NT2t

christineannroy Apr 2 @ 9:12 AM EDT

Religion has influenced cultures. Teaching it would help broaden perspectives #NT2t

YuriKaragyozov Apr 2 @ 9:12 AM EDT

@kesselpa You are so right! #NT2t

seni_bl Apr 2 @ 9:12 AM EDT

That's the correct way in my opinion. #nt2t https://t.co/ZYmIZ1S7oI

dayankee Apr 2 @ 9:08 AM EDT

A1 In social studies, we teach about the world's great religions but we don't teach religion. That's what I think should happen #NT2t

MCPTechDirector Apr 2 @ 9:12 AM EDT

A1 #nt2t I think understanding Faith is much more important. Especially understanding and accepting the faith of others isn't wrong.

RachelWax24 Apr 2 @ 9:12 AM EDT

A1. Religions permeates all facets of how cultures behave and interact, I think it needs to be taught in an informative way. #NT2t

hholsopple Apr 2 @ 9:12 AM EDT

A1: Religon is important to many of our Ss. Teaching the acceptance and understanding of religion (minority ones too) is necessary. #NT2t

CHitch94 Apr 2 @ 9:12 AM EDT

A1) When taught f2f, always had at least 1 S say "you can't teach us religion." Diff between teaching about rels vs. rel instruction. #nt2t

shyj - Moderator Apr 2 @ 9:12 AM EDT

@i_michaelsen Hi Ilene! Welcome to #NT2t

jschwartzcen Apr 2 @ 9:13 AM EDT

A1: I believe religions should be taught in school as it is important to understand what drives so many people to act the way they do. #nt2t

MCPTechDirector Apr 2 @ 9:13 AM EDT

@shyj #nt2t They'll poke through later. Probably...

maestraw Apr 2 @ 9:13 AM EDT

@shyj I do believe it is responsible teaching to teach cultures and religion in schools to learn appreciation of others. #NT2t

YuriKaragyozov Apr 2 @ 9:13 AM EDT

@dayankee I think it is the best way! #NT2t

tiffbutton Apr 2 @ 9:13 AM EDT

A1:What @kesselpa said.It's a touchy area that should be handled by parents because there are so many differ cultures in a school #nt2t

seni_bl Apr 2 @ 9:13 AM EDT

@Stanton_Lit But one must focus on the diversity of religions, should be more teaching ethic than religion. #nt2t

DrHarrisonMcCoy Apr 2 @ 9:14 AM EDT

A1:To understand our world in context I believe we have to teach at least about religion. At least, in high school. #nt2t

@tiffbutton Hey Tiffany! So happy you are here with us! #NT2t

CHitch94 Apr 2 @ 9:15 AM EDT

@DrHarrisonMcCoy Think comparative world religions is often introduced in middle school, at least in my current state. #nt2t

Stanton_Lit Apr 2 @ 9:15 AM EDT

@seni_bl I think it is important to teach the history and cultures of all religions. Ethical views can vary. Unbiased factual teaching #NT2t

MarcusAtUniAIME Apr 2 @ 9:15 AM EDT

#Nt2t A1: I believe that religion is a private matter but that in schools, major information about religions should be taught

shyj - Moderator Apr 2 @ 9:15 AM EDT

@maestraw Nice! Scotland is on my bucket list! #NT2t

lfortewilliams Apr 2 @ 9:15 AM EDT

Larissa from Indiana. HS world history. Religion must be taught. It is in our state standards. The state of our world needs it as well #nt2t

******Question 2 is all about communication. What ideas do you have for @EoinLenihan 's students? Stay tuned in 1 min #NT2t

CHitch94 Apr 2 @ 9:16 AM EDT

@butterfli820 @tiffbutton @kesselpa Even teaching about religions? Would think it would be evven more imp in diverse school. #nt2t

dayankee Apr 2 @ 9:16 AM EDT

For example: You cannot teach about India without including Hinduism. #NT2t

hholsopple Apr 2 @ 9:16 AM EDT

@kesselpa do you think it's possible that ethics are not universal just as religion is not universal?#NT2t

i_michaelsen Apr 2 @ 9:16 AM EDT

Q1: The pressure would be on the school as well as the teacher to ensure the line between education an preaching isn't crossed. #NT2t

kesselpa Apr 2 @ 9:16 AM EDT

@davidwees yeah me too. It's on everybody to choose his own kind of belief #nt2t

MCPTechDirector Apr 2 @ 9:18 AM EDT

#nt2t No, but you learn a lot when you teach. I don't think we should prosthelytize but inform and build empathy. https://t.co/y8siHwdFFe

tiffbutton Apr 2 @ 9:15 AM EDT

@davidwees @shyj Is learning and teaching the same thing? Are they just listening or being influenced in school?

seni_bl Apr 2 @ 9:18 AM EDT

@shyj I have no experience regarding this topic. #nt2t

Stanton_Lit Apr 2 @ 9:18 AM EDT

A2: Taught at an ESL school and it amazed me how the ESL Ss would help each other w/ English b4 the native speakers would. #NT2t

shyj - Moderator Apr 2 @ 9:19 AM EDT

A2: Allow Ss to share their languages and help teach others to communicate. We can all learn from each other. #NT2t

@i_michaelsen @steppitom Tom had to step out. Maybe @CBeylschmidt can help! #NT2t

CHitch94 Apr 2 @ 9:19 AM EDT

@kesselpa @butterfli820 @tiffbutton Agree. Always told Ss we were learning ABOUT religion, not trying to convert anyone. #nt2t

christineannroy Apr 2 @ 9:20 AM EDT

A2: I teach an Arab classroom. It helps me understand how Ss think and communicate. #nt2t

MCPTechDirector Apr 2 @ 9:20 AM EDT

#nt2t Agreed. Recognizing your faith is different, but not threatened by someone else's is very important discourse https://t.co/2kyxAQIkPx

davidwees Apr 2 @ 9:16 AM EDT

@tiffbutton @shyj I can learn about how other people view an idea without accepting that idea as true. That builds empathy. #MT2t

shyj - Moderator Apr 2 @ 9:20 AM EDT

@tiffbutton @davidwees Interesting question! #NT2t

i_michaelsen Apr 2 @ 9:20 AM EDT

Q1: took a World Religions class. It was enjoyable and opened my mind. Non-intrusive, informative. Poss. 4 older high school earliest #NT2t

jschwartzcen Apr 2 @ 9:20 AM EDT

MCPTechDirector Apr 2 @ 9:23 AM EDT

@JKatzaman #nt2t Yes, even mindfulness practices need to be treated carefully so as to not to be perceived as endorsing a religious practice

jschwartzcen Apr 2 @ 9:23 AM EDT

A2: It is important to make your classroom a welcoming and respectful place where all SS feel at home. #nt2t

@hholsopple I wish I had spent time having Ss get to know the cultures & country history of the ESL Ss. Built one community #NT2t

LoriW1088 Apr 2 @ 9:25 AM EDT

A2: My 1st grade ELL Ss teach me. They practice a word/phrase, I practice a word/phrase. They are better than I am :) #NT2t

shyj - Moderator Apr 2 @ 9:50 AM EDT

@tiffbutton Yes, and they watch what we are doing and NOT doing as well. They learn from both. #NT2t

kesselpa Apr 2 @ 9:50 AM EDT

A5 find a common ground of values w/ them and just be normal #nt2t

dayankee Apr 2 @ 9:50 AM EDT

A5 Good teaching is good teaching. Be there and build relationships with your students. The rest will follow. #NT2t

jschwartzcen Apr 2 @ 9:50 AM EDT

@LoriW1088 Took me a while to understand this but it is the key. #nt2t

Stanton_Lit Apr 2 @ 9:51 AM EDT

@tmconlan Love eating lunch w/ Ss. You can learn so much that way. & always make the 1st contact w/ parent a positive one. #NT2t

MCPTechDirector Apr 2 @ 9:51 AM EDT

#nt2t I think most import is learning to recognize our implicit biases and interrupting them before they impact others, especially Ss and Ts

shyj - Moderator Apr 2 @ 9:51 AM EDT

@jschwartzcen @LoriW1088 I agree Lori, and this is so important for new Ts to understand. #NT2t

tiffbutton Apr 2 @ 9:52 AM EDT

A5:Go in with an open mind. Don't assume you know from what you've heard.Let your hands on experience mold your belief of Ss greatness #nt2t

jschwartzcen Apr 2 @ 9:52 AM EDT

A5: Always listen to your SS and take interest in what they tell you. #nt2t

CHitch94 Apr 2 @ 9:52 AM EDT

@Stanton_Lit @tmconlan So true. Used to call all Ps at start of year to introduce self, see if they had ?s, concerns. Learned a lot. #nt2t

lfortewilliams Apr 2 @ 9:52 AM EDT

A5: the BEST way is to study or travel abroad. Must place self in the minority to truly understand. #nt2t

@shyj @jschwartzcen Teaching comes easy when you have the relationship/respect. #NT2t

shyj - Moderator Apr 2 @ 9:52 AM EDT

.@i_michaelsen How might lack of cultural awareness play into this? #NT2t

jschwartzcen Apr 2 @ 9:53 AM EDT

@LoriW1088 @shyj Yes-everything goes much easier. #nt2t

kesselpa Apr 2 @ 9:53 AM EDT

A5: Always listen to your SS and take interest in what they tell you. #nt2t

CHitch94 Apr 2 @ 9:53 AM EDT

@tiffbutton Yes! Sometimes will hear things about S from prior Ts but try not to let that affect view. Let S make own 1st impression. #nt2t

LoriW1088 Apr 2 @ 9:53 AM EDT

A5: Embrace #NT2t

CHitch94 Apr 2 @ 9:53 AM EDT

@tiffbutton And then give them more than one chance to make that impression b/c they will mess up - and so will we. #nt2t

seni_bl Apr 2 @ 9:54 AM EDT

Can't agree more! #nt2t https://t.co/w6sUw4NJmv

A5: (1/2) Being open-minded, a human, a role model for Ss & learn from everyone. #NT2t

Stanton_Lit Apr 2 @ 9:54 AM EDT

@CHitch94 @tmconlan Same here. Also asked Ps to tell me about their child. Learned a lot that way & Ps love to talk about their child. #NT2t

dayankee Apr 2 @ 9:54 AM EDT

@CHitch94 @tiffbutton Exactly. So many times kids show us their best even though they showed other Ts their worst. New day everyday #NT2t

jschwartzcen Apr 2 @ 9:54 AM EDT

@CHitch94 @tiffbutton Try not to let past interactions with other Ts colour your opinions #nt2t

kesselpa Apr 2 @ 9:54 AM EDT

@tmconlan good points! I also showed photos of my family and my last vacation makes it more personal #nt2t

CHitch94 Apr 2 @ 9:55 AM EDT

@dayankee @tiffbutton Exactly! Had that exp myself. Ss that other Ts had terrible time w/ were fine for me (& possibly vice versa) #nt2t

Stanton_Lit Apr 2 @ 9:55 AM EDT

@kesselpa @tmconlan YES! Ss love to hear about Ts lives. Makes us real people. #NT2t

MCPTechDirector Apr 2 @ 9:55 AM EDT

@BarbaraGruener #nt2t Yes Ss need to see themselves in the curriculum and resources. Not just images, but POVs and histories embedded.

dayankee Apr 2 @ 9:56 AM EDT

@CHitch94 @tiffbutton Right, so many factors. The climate you create, your interactions with S, the S's maturity, etc Can't prejudge #NT2t

shyj - Moderator Apr 2 @ 9:56 AM EDT

@Stanton_Lit @kesselpa @tmconlan I think any way that you can appear to be "human" to Ss is a good thing. #NT2t

JKatzaman Apr 2 @ 9:56 AM EDT

A5 Immerse yourself and get familiar with the culture you'll teach in. Know your audience and adjust your approach accordingly. #NT2t

jschwartzcen Apr 2 @ 9:57 AM EDT

@LoriW1088 Great way to show kindness and understanding. We did the Miraculous Journey of Edward Tulane by Kate DiCamillo #nt2t

CHitch94 Apr 2 @ 9:57 AM EDT

@jschwartzcen @LoriW1088 My daughter's 2nd grade T read this to her class. She LOVED it! #nt2t

kesselpa Apr 2 @ 9:57 AM EDT

@Stanton_Lit @tmconlan yeah right e.g. In turkey they're even friends on facebook and go to each others birthdays #nt2t

YuriKaragyozov Apr 2 @ 9:58 AM EDT

A5: (2/2) Usually I dine with my Ss communicate outside of school. I share with them my experience and talking to them as adults #NT2t

shyj - Moderator Apr 2 @ 9:58 AM EDT
