Critical consciousness (CC) is the ability to understand, critique, and act against oppressive social structures and systemic forces. To assist educators in understanding and enacting strategies that foster CC, the authors identified examples of CC in third through fifth grade virtual classes of a 2020 "Children's Defense Fund's" Freedom School. Using focused qualitative coding of videos and transcripts representing the teaching of four Servant Leader Interns (SLIs), five main strategies for developing critical consciousness were identified: (1) sharing power in the classroom; (2) making questions to critique society; (3) critiquing society; (4) taking social justice action; and (5) using text with critical content. This paper presents these strategies based on their prevalence in the Freedom School transcripts and argues that CC can manifest in young children and should be developed in virtual elementary settings, thus empowering students to understand, critique, and act against oppressive social forces.
