  Multicultural Education - Celebrating Diversity

What is multicultural education? How can multicultural education benefit your school community? Help your staff develop awareness and appreciation of the cultural diversity which exists within your school.

Children who come from homes where cultural differences are not appreciated may have difficulty interacting with classmates from diverse backgrounds.

 

Topics:

Developing cultural awareness among students, parents and staff

Emphasizing multiculturalism in classroom activities

Multicultural approach to integrating subjects

Helping students recognize culturally biased stereotypes

Opportunities for community involvement
