Event Navigation
Educators have their work cut out for them in balancing all the needs of their diverse students, and this is the case more than ever as we hit the one-year anniversary of social distancing safety measures. For educators who have Muslim students in their classrooms, they may understand the importance of Ramadan, but may not feel equipped to properly support students participating in fasting and other special rituals of the month.
Join ING for a conversation, as our speakers discuss the challenges Muslim students may face while fasting discuss the challenges Muslim students may face while fasting, and best practices for parents and educators during the fast-approaching month of Ramadan. Register here to join on Thursday, April 1st from 4:00 – 5:00pm PST.
