A2: If not planned for, celebratory days can disrupt the curriculum flow. #RuralEdChat

A3. Maybe not the leader of a movement but folks who lived during those times to share their experiences #ruraledchat

Need some confirmation from bear country. How bad is the grizzly problem? #ruraledchat #ruraled

When pressed by Conn. Sen. Murphy, DeVos says some rural schools may need guns to defend against grizzly bears. #DeVosHearing

A4 careful planning ... if we teach to standards then we can use texts that cross to civic responsibility #ruraledchat

A4: That's hard sometimes. I try to incorporate it into something we already have in the curriculum to expand on it. #RuralEdChat

A4 Taking lens that all content areas can/may have civics https://t.co/Pz7sKRKFxZ might we tie in citizenship, service, gov't? #ruraledchat

Q3: #ruraledchat

farmtableteach Jan 17 @ 9:12 PM EST

I am crazy for Social Studies from @TeachTCI. E.G. My 3rd Ss talk to parents re: hard decisions like abortion and immigration.

WehrdScience Jan 17 @ 9:17 PM EST

A4: In science, we make sure our facts are peer reviewed by notable sources. A civic duty I impress in all aspects of Ss life! #RuralEdChat

A4 My Humanities 7 course is all about civic responsibility - democracy, identity, community, intersectionality, equity... #ruraledchat

nataleestotz - Moderator Jan 17 @ 9:19 PM EST

I love teaching the humanities! #RuralEdChat

#RuralEdChat Q5:Media can overwhelm as we seek to teach civic engagement, especially now. How is media literacy working in your curric?

bivey Jan 17 @ 9:20 PM EST

And teaching both the humanities *and* Rock Band (also, really, about social justice and voice) is super-awesome! #RuralEdChat

#RuralEdChat A5: Ss need to learn to read images and film.

TG_Neil - Moderator Jan 17 @ 9:22 PM EST

A5: My AP CSP class actually studies infographics for accuracy. Great lessons. #RuralEdChat

bivey Jan 17 @ 9:22 PM EST

A5 I think media literacy as it pertains to perpetuating stereotypes is pretty strong. Critical thinking could improve some. #ruraledchat

robinhosemann - Moderator Jan 17 @ 9:23 PM EST

A5 building cultures of debate, dissent & discernment wrt media and sources #ruraledchat

SylviaEllison Jan 17 @ 9:23 PM EST

A5 we use limited media - with a focus on film clip and lyric analysis ... not sure it's connected to civic engagement #ruraledchat

A5: Exactly the point of my last A4. Fake News, social media, & entitlement: we MUST teach Ss listening skills & fact ✔ing #RuralEdChat

nthnwhte Jan 17 @ 9:26 PM EST

A5: It's important to show how to verify information. It's a skill just like others that Ss need for 21st Century Learning #RuralEdChat
