Multicultural Classrooms and Curriculum
I'm looking for input from educators in grades 6-12 about things they do to create multiculturalism in their classes. What events, people, or books do you study that incorporate diverse thinking?
Hispanic History Month
SEPTEMBER 15-OCTOBER 15
What an exciting time to feature the contributions of Latina/Latino Writers, Speakers and Movie Makers!
Lost for ideas?
Check out HISPANIC HERITAGE and NATIONAL HISPANIC HISTORY MONTH sites.
Invite students to bring in picture books, poems, and selections for their history books to write found poems, Pantoums, an "I Am From" poems about people, places and events reflecting the contributions of men, women and children of Hispanic heritage.
