The eighth annual Indigenous Peoples’ Day Curriculum Teach-In, in collaboration with Teaching for Change, is an opportunity for educators to convene in person and strategize ways to uplift and bring Native voices directly into the classroom. Recommended for teachers of grades K–12. Teachers play a crucial role in advancing the museum's work to transform popular understandings of Native histories, cultures, and contemporary lives. Participants can select two workshop breakout sessions. Each session provides resource-rich experiences, such as classroom lessons about Native peoples and topics; resources from Teaching for Change and the National Museum of the American Indian (NMAI); and strategies for effectively incorporating the museum's exhibitions in Washington, DC, into classroom curricula. The goal of the Teach-In is to support awareness of the NMAI's Native Knowledge 360° (NK360°) national education initiative, which promotes improved teaching about Native American communities through classroom lessons.
