1. Culturally Responsive Methods-Expanding the students' knowledge by asking questions. Open-ended questions like What do you know about a particular culture? Or what would you like to learn about other students, their background, and culture?                2. Helping students understand why they are encouraged to learn what they are challenged to learn. Students can achieve this by creating learning objectives that help them assess what they have learned.                                                                                3. Help students not to be afraid to take ownership of their learning environment. This can be achieved through the use of small group settings.                                           4. Use resources such as Chromebooks and by watching videos on YouTube that show different cultures and backgrounds from each student. There are strategies to meet the needs of learners, such as utilizing learning styles or observation to identify how students learn best. Be aware that students may have different strengths, weaknesses, and varying outlooks on learning.                                                      Incorporate Visuals: Use images, videos, and other visual aids to present information. Utilize discussion, storytelling, podcasts, and music to cater to auditory learners, provide opportunities for students to interact with physical objects, such as building models and creating crafts, and allow students to select activities that align with their interests and strengths

To promote a community where families are engaged, I suggest the following:                                              *Host a cultural night where families are invited to come together at school and bring a favorite dish for a potluck. This will foster dialogue and help establish relationships.                                                            *In the spring, have a picnic and invite families to join and continue to build healthy relationships. *Have a parents' night out during the holidays, inviting faculty, teachers, and parents, where they can create community development.                                          * As a teacher, I would also invite a guest speaker on parent night to talk about community engagement and building friendships

To celebrate cultural differences as a teacher, I would have students bring a picture of their family to hang in the classroom. Also, have each student take turns sharing stories about their family and background to enlighten their peers. Display books that discuss and educate students about the various cultures represented in the classroom. Consider inviting guest speakers from other cultures to discuss the differences between their cultures. This can be done by utilizing family members, school employers, and community leaders. Students will have an opportunity to ask questions and reflect on their learning experience by writing. To foster an inclusive classroom teachers and educators need to ensure all students can easily access and navigate the classroom, including students with disabilities, offer a variety of seating options to accommodate different learning needs, arrange furniture to ensure all students, have a clear view of the teacher and leaning materials, and designate quiet zones for individual work or reflection. Practicing inclusive language is important. The use of gender-neutral language will help to avoid assumptions about a student's background. Discuss cultural and individual differences in a respectful and open manner. Be mindful of language that might exclude or marginalize certain groups, acknowledge and celebrate cultural events, holidays, and traditions. When establishing community norms as teachers, we should involve students in creating and reviewing classroom norms, fostering a sense of ownership. Establish clear expectations for respectful participation, communication, and conflict resolution. Promote active listening and turn-taking in discussions and provide opportunities for feedback to ensure all students have an opportunity to express themselves.

Educators can include literature created by and representing marginalized and underrepresented groups of people. Educators could also integrate writing experiences that allow students to share their family background experiences. They can bring pictures of their family and also bring a dish to exchange, learning about each other's culture. Additionally, enhancing curriculum integration can be achieved by utilizing a video resource featuring others sharing their stories, and providing students with the opportunity to ask questions and reflect on the information shared. Some Examples of multicultural literature include "The Spiritual Odyssey of Pi Patel in Yann Martel's Life of Pi", "Death of the Reder" by Tabish Khair, and Zadie Smith. Case Study Examples: When students have disabilities, they have a hard time connecting with students who do not. Historical Events: 1964 Civil Rights Act, 1965 Head Start Begins, 1972 Title X, 1975 Education for All
