Strategy Two: Focusing on Current Events- Teachers should focus on current events of various cultures around the world so that the students can gain the knowledge about events, economic status, and environmental status from all around the world.

Strategy Three: Cultural Music- Teachers can play different music from various cultures so that the students will be able to tell the differences in music from around the world. This includes, the languages the song is sang in, the instruments they use for their music, and lastly, the way it sounds.

Strategy Four: Diverse Math Problems- When learning to solve simple math problems, teachers can integrate culture by using diverse examples. An example of this is Charlie who lives in China has three dumplings but his friend Sally from Mexico has four tacos, How many food items do they have together? Overall, this highlights a diverse curriculum by using the food from around the world while students are also learning to add and solve math problems.

Strategy Two: Cultural Share and Tell- Teachers can set up a cultural share and tell where students bring in something that reparents their culture. Students will be encouraged to share their item with the class as their peers will ask questions about their item or culture.

Strategy Three: Visual Aids- Teachers should put up visual aids around the classroom for students to learn other cultures. For example: A teacher can put a picture of an apple and have the word written in various different languages around it to show the many different ways to way the word.  

Strategy Four: Digital Resource- Students can explore with age, grade, and developmentally appropriate online resources to learn other languages. For example: The resource Digital Dialects has many games for children in many different languages. These games allow children to learn simple words from other languages by listening to the word being spoken and then trying to repeat the word.  (Digital Dialects Language Learning, 2023)

Strategy Two: Help Families Support Their Childs Learning- Family involvement is important for a child’s development and learning process. “Parents who regularly communicate high academic aspirations for their child had greater effect than any other parental behavior.” (Gerzon-Kessler, 2024) Teachers should be able to provide advice and tips for parents on how to support their learning.

Strategy Three: Classroom Newsletters- Teachers can use digital platforms to create online newsletters for families and students that show what we are learning, any special events that we will be celebrating during the week, and lastly, resources for families on how they can support the development of the weekly learning focus.

Strategy Four: Parent-Teacher Conferences- Teachers can hold parent teacher conferences where they discuss goals, they want to see the child achieve throughout the year. Parents can ask questions or make concerns about their child’s development and teachers should be able to provide the advice and tips on how they can support their child.

Strategy Two: Reading Translation Support-In some classrooms, teachers may have a couple students who are still learning how to speak, read, and comprehend the English language. Teachers must provide support for English Language Learners during reading times, so the students can understand what they are reading. This strategy will allow students to learn the material without having to focus on understanding what they are reading.

Strategy Three: Collaboration Among Students- Teachers should provide opportunities for the students to work together. Collaboration among students not only allows the students to understand diverse ideas and perspectives, but it also helps and encourages students to give one another feedback on their work. Teachers must hold up their professional ethics while creating groups that are diverse to promote equality in the classroom.  

Strategy Four: Open Communication and Positive Relationships: Teachers should create a classroom where all students feel safe and respected regardless of their culture. It’s important for educators to have an open line of communication with the students and their families to address any questions or concerns regarding their learning. This strategy makes the students feel valued and respected in the classroom.
