The Be a Better Ally Podcast hosts leading thinkers and educators who will inspire you to rethink classroom practices, classroom libraries, and policies that make schools welcoming to your entire community.
In this episode, Ticia speaks with international educator and consultant Rebekah Macden about ways to foster belonging in schools and truly center the importance of relationships. She discusses emotional literacy as a sustained investment in academic time, and her experience creating and using Maracujá, a character-driven passion learning program.
