Scholastic Multiculturalism and Diversity lesson plans - 0 views

  •  
    This site has a bunch of tips, lesson plans, and activities with a multicultural/diverse focus. I liked the "Internet field trip" idea for giving a quick tour of a holiday, country, or cultural event or trend. Many of the virtual field trips give good lesson ideas.

Multicultural Education Pavilion - Diversity, Equity, & Social Justice Education Resources - 0 views

  •  
    I really liked this website as a multicultural resource for students and teachers because they provided various types of information, materials for lesson plans, and gave contact/following information by the makers of the website. From quotes to articles this website is stocked with information. However since it is so abundant in resources, it seems a tad cluttered, so some sleuthing will have to be done in order to find the perfect resource you need.

    The website was last updated in May of 2006, however, I think other websites that are listed, are kept more current - for example The CIA World Factbook. This site has some language links, experience some culture, Hmong sites, and miscellaneous links.

    Tolerance.org is a great website that provides free educational materials for educators. Using the materials, the website promotes the idea of caring about diversity, equal opportunity and respect for differences in schools. The news, conversation and support of the website often provokes many thoughts of the educators with regard of the tolerance in the schools. Furthermore, the website provides various lesson plans. All of the lesson plans are customized for PreK-12 classrooms, which are particular useful and practical to help students learn respect for differences. In addition, when subscribed the website can send multicultural educational magazine, which is a useful media for educators to read in spare time.

National Science Teachers Association - 0 views

  •  
    Article gives teachers tips and advice to motivate and encourage students in a culturally diverse classroom where science may not be a highly valued subject to students.
  •  
    I would use this in the classroom by having students actively do science and have them share what they found with the class. This would set a foundation to show them they can be successful in science and can motivate them to learn proficiency in science. Once they know they're good at something they'll put more time and effort into developing that skill.
