Lit. 3321 M&W Chapter 2 Culturaaly Responsive

Chapter 2 is a very interesting because we are surround bya diverse culture. Teahers are more acceptable to a diverse classroom nowthan it was before which makes it easier for our childern. My childern are mixed and I have taught them about both culture back ground that they have which I also prepared my daughterbefore she started school. Black History month iscelebrated in public schools which I think is great. My Eight year daughter lovesto read about Rosa Parks, Martin Luther King, and manymoreof these types of stories. She read The Story of Ruby Bridges and went into tears this was during Black History month, she asked meso many questions about the teachers in that story. She was so glad that teachers now have a diverse classroom where childern can feel comfortable and make learning fun. A classroom needs to have a welcoming envirnoment to every student regardless oftheir culture background. School is the place where childern get an education anda guidence to reach their goals. I also read Aunt Harriet's Underground Railroad in the Sky top mydaughter and she likethe book. Culture is an important issuse that we all face and it is not only in classrooms. I believe that in an Eduation degree you needto take a Multicultural class, well I did in St. Phillips that was in my degree plan.
