Preview a virtual student program and learn about the museum’s distance learning programs.
During the second session of the Native New York in Your Classroom webinar series, participants will see a facilitated dialogue in action. Carrie Gonzalez, Program Specialist, and Ami Temarantz, Lead Cultural Interpreter, lead participants through a 45-minute virtual student program called “Living in Native New York”, which explores how Native nations have maintained, and continue to preserve, their connections to their New York home in the face of adversity and change. Museum educators facilitate new conversations about the places students call home and their role in caring for those places. The webinar concludes with an introduction to the museum’s distance learning programs for students grades 4–12 and information about the registration process. Participants are strongly encouraged to watch Webinar One in this series to learn more about the foundational theory and skills of dialogue. Webinar Two originally aired on October 1, 2020.
Webinar Two is part of a four-part series designed for education professionals who teach about the Native nations of New York State.
