Week 9
I think that it is increasingly important for students to have multicultural education. The world is getting smaller everyday. It seems that it is more important to be tolerant right where we live as even the small towns in Wisconsin are becoming more diverse. This makes it more important for students to learn to be tolerant, but it also offers them more education about other cultures without ever leaving the classroom. I think it would be a great idea in a more diverse classroom for students to help inform their fellow classmates about their culture through a little presentation. I tutored two boys that attended an international school, they had an international day where families came in and set up booths with food, drinks, music, clothes from their respective cultures.

Especially since we live in smaller communities it is important to teach diversity. Many students may not see other cultures until they are much older and we don't want them to unprepared.
