Join Us for the The Hope Wheel Experience—Teaching Math & Science for Joy, Justice, and Connection
Participants will explore how to use the six Hope Wheel verbs—Love, Protest, Restore, Invest, Inspire, and Create—to design lessons that empower students to think critically, take action, and see themselves as contributors to their communities. Through real-world applications and instructional strategies, this webinar will provide practical guidance on adapting math and science lessons in ways that foster curiosity, equity, and lasting impact. This webinar is exclusively available to Inspire Learning Series subscribers.

Our attendees love the series
I envision considering how to practice culturally responsive teaching as an opportunity rather than an additional task - the course really did make entry points for this practice more accessible.

I think everything was well planned, organizing. I took away and have been telling my colleagues that all mathematics teachers should take this course.
Suzanne B
I want to work on connecting math more directly to my students’ experiences and the things they care about. This feels like both a challenge and an opportunity to make learning more meaningful and relevant.
