Title - Classroom Diversity
By - JoAnne Harmon
Primary Subject - Social Studies
Secondary Subjects -
Grade Level - Preschool - Grade 3
This would be a great icebreaker at the beginning
of a new school year, and especially if you have
multi ethnic children.
At the first open house, or at orientation, have a
large map of the world hanging for everyone to see.
Ask the parents to take a pushpin and pinpoint where
their ancestors or they themselves came from in the world.
Then use each country as a social studies lesson,
and even ask the parents or family member to come in
and talk a little about that country. Include books,
maps, brochures and even food native to that area.
The children will have a great time sampling the different foods and seeing the countries in the maps and brochures. They will hear first hand about that
country ( things not often mentioned in textbooks).
and it will make the lesson more memorable.
This lesson could be adapted for reading classes also.
