Reframing Literacies Across Borders: A K-12 Educator Workshop

Hemispheres is partnering with Kurt Wootton, founder of lab school Habla and the ArtsLiteracy project at Brown University to provide creative, interdisciplinary strategies for teaching and learning through texts across world regions. Kurt's expertise in literacy development will help us reframe how to incorporate varied texts across disciplines in a way that forges community, integrates the arts, and builds students actively invested in their own learning. We'll explore diverse texts from a variety of world regions, including the Middle East and North Africa.

The workshop includes coffee, lunch, and optional guided tour of the Harry Ransom Center's children's literature exhibition "Words and Wonder."
