Latinx Heritage Month (September 15-October 15) begins in less than one month. We encourage educators to address Latinx topics that are often left out of the textbook.

This year we are hosting the second annual Teach Central America Week October 5-11, 2020. Teaching for Change is providing free resources for classroom teachers, including lessons, book lists, biographies of noted historical figures, and readings, which can be found at TeachingCentralAmerica.org.

Join educators across the country for #TeachCentralAmerica week from October 5 - 11, 2020. More than four million Central Americans reside in the United States and migration from the region is headline news. However, most schools teach very little about Central America, including the long history of U.S. involvement in the region.

Teaching for Change is preparing for the second annual Teach Central America Week to encourage and support teaching about Central America. Join us for a free introductory workshop to learn more about the national campaign, explore teaching resources, and hear from guest speakers.

Join a book celebration and conversation on Becoming a Teacher with author Melinda D. Anderson and LaQuisha Hall, moderated by Tiffany Mitchell Patterson.

The event is hosted by Teaching for Change on the day of the book release.

Join the Smithsonian’s National Museum of the American Indian (NMAI) and Teaching for Change for keynote speaker Winona LaDuke and curriculum workshops. The focus of the teach-in is Indigenous peoples’ histories and experiences around food and water justice today.

Help us give teachers and parents the tools to teach Central American history and multicultural education. Give today.
