Here’s How I Teach the Difference Between Equity and Equality
by Tracey Enser
A couple years ago, I came across an idea for teaching students the meaning of equity, and I adapted it to make it my own.
We asked your fellow teachers what books they’ll be digging into while resting and recharging over winter break. Take a look at the titles they shared below, then add your own must-reads in the comments!
Teacher Mrs. Ennis and educator @MLTumulty said they’ll be reading a mix of professional development titles and books just for fun:

And like many of her fellow educators, teacher S.D. Johnston is hoping for the gift of a good book over the holidays!

One little box, holding one little note, could change one student's whole world, believes teacher Sophie Kasahara.
