Description:

The class provides pre-service teachers with opportunities to explore ways to understand and appreciate their own culture and elementary students’ diverse cultures. Since learning occurs in a multicultural world with many ways of knowing, opportunities are needed to critically examine beliefs and classroom practices that value each student’s unique cultural background. Literacy experiences with multicultural children’s literature between pre-service teachers and elementary students build a foundation for future interactions with students. J. Hoellein
