Join us for a virtual book club to read "Wayi Wah! Indigenous Pedagogies, An Act for Reconciliation and Anti-Racist Education"

Join us for a virtual book club Thursdays after school, once per month from the end of Feb - mid June 2024

BCECTA recently launched our book club for early career teachers, thanks to some grant funding from the BCTF.

We started in the fall with the book Kids These Days by Dr. Jody Carrington, and now it’s time to launch our second book with Wayi Wah! by Jo Chrona. 
We will be meeting after school monthly (for a total of 5 meetings) to…

• discuss themes covered in the book, 
• share out what resonates, 
• exchange ideas / questions / connections, and 
• think together in community.
  
  

All meetings will be virtual (unless you wish to host a place-based satellite meeting. Please get in touch with us if you want to run a local satellite group!).  You can still participate even if you can’t attend all meetings, but in order to be considered among the first 25 eligible to get the book for free you must be able to commit to at least three of the five sessions.

Registered participants will be emailed the zoom link prior to each session.

From the pool of participants in each meeting, we will do a draw for four gift cards. The electronic gift cards can be used for a little treat or beverage of choice to enjoy.

Meeting dates: (One hour each)
