“I want the teachers who have to go to work every day, under these incredibly difficult circumstances, having a room full of 5-year-olds is not a gift I possess, I couldn’t do that, so they’re already superhuman. But imagine walking into a room and they’ve got this kind of messaging to bolster what they’re already trying to instill in these kids. Without any cynicism whatsoever.” - Christopher Jackson
The team will share a new Nickelodeon/Noggin series featuring the music of Christopher Jackson (Hamilton) for children ages 2-6+. The series celebrates the challenges and triumphs of Black historical figures and leaders in Dance, Leadership, and Science. Participants will identify actionable ways to tackle tough-to-talk-about topics with the youngest children while exploring strategies to create inclusive classrooms.
