Open to: Grades K – 5 Teachers
Opportunity at a Glance: In a multicultural society, educators need to foster understanding and build connections between different people and their respective cultures; however, particularly when an educator is speaking on a people/culture that is not their own, some barriers inhibit their ability to fully honor and respect them in the curriculum. The Best Practices for Teaching Culture in the Classroom workshop will focus on the following:
- Exploration of existing cultural halls/exhibits;
- Reflective activities/discussions based on the self (within and without the classroom); and
- Engaging in art practices
Educators will dissect their relationship to culture(s) and how they navigate teaching, honoring and respecting them within the classroom.
