    Reflect on the ways people respond to one another when points of view differ. Do we ever change our views? What kinds of things influence us to change our perspective?

      A multicultural education curriculum is a crucial component of modern education, promoting diversity, cultural understanding, and the skills needed for success in an interconnected and diverse world.

    STATEMENTS

    1. A multicultural education curriculum should be in place in every school. YES, the numbers show, we are heading to a multi-cultural population. WE need to be supporting all students.
    2. Families should not be expected to be involved in classroom activities. UM family need to be given the opportunity to be engaged as much as they can. I usually had 6 kids in my home, most of them with a disability. I would have loved to be more involved in the class but was often at doctor appointments. Give opportunities that can be done with a variety of schedules.
    3. All learning programs should accommodate all children with special needs. OK, this one is hard. I have kids that I would not expect to sit in a Typical Math class, but can be with their ‘peers’ in an art class. Every child needs to be met where they are at. For the younger ones, I would try very hard to include a child with a disability. BUT this also means that the Teacher and classroom has been given the necessary supports and accommodations needed to keep all children safe and have the ability to learn.
    4. Some extended family members may confuse children, so they should not have a voice in raising or educating the child. UM, that’s not our call. We need to work with the families we are given. If this person is important and in this child’s life, you need to learn to communicate with them.
    5. My curriculum should be based on each individual child’s current interests. UM, I don’t see how that is possible. And part of what we are doing is ‘Teaching’ new skills and ideas. If you can incorporate a child’s interest to support engagement- do it. This may not be what the book says.. But an Individual plan or each child is very hard unless you have lots of staff. I would try to incorporate as much as I can and keep moving along in the learning goals.
    6. Diversity definitely includes race and culture, but doesn’t include age, ability or family make-up. NO. diversity is everything that affects they child. The child’s age, the parents age, where they live, it all shows that we live in a very divers world.
    7. Media in general delivers fair and accurate accounts of events around the country. UM, It is our responsibility to find they most balanced and educated resources we can find. I don’t want to judge “Media in general” because we are so fractured in our media consumption right now. Your Media in general may be very different than mine. And this is not the forum to discuss it,
    8. The United States should discontinue relations with countries that engage in human rights violations. UM, this is not the place for this discussion. As a professional I need to keep my person political believes to myself.

    Four corners activity

    1: Strongly agree

    *A multicultural education curriculum should be in place in every school.

    2: Agree

    *All learning programs should accommodate all children with special needs.

    *The United States should discontinue relations with countries that engage in human rights violations.

    3: Disagree

    *Some extended family members may confuse children, so they should not have a voice in raising or educating the child. (Yes and no)

    *My curriculum should be based on each individual child’s current interests.

    *Media in general delivers fair and accurate accounts of events around the country.

    4: Strongly disagree

    *Families should not be expected to be involved in classroom activities.

    *Diversity definitely includes race and culture, but doesn’t include age, ability or family make-up.

    Point of view : what shaped your responses above:

    I think growing up with 2 moms, in a different household than most others I grew up being very accepting and open to other peoples differences.

    Reflect on the ways people respond to one another when points of view differ. Do we ever change our views? What kinds of things influence us to change our perspective?

    *sometimes when people have different points of view they may not be able to communicate well, they may be cold or distant, judgemental, non-inclusive. Yes I think we can change our views, when we open our selves up and become reciprocative to other people and their background, cultures, lives etc, we begin to learn more about others and that can help us to be more accepting. Things that can help us influence us to change our perspective are our families, school, friends, work, community, anything and anywhere can help us change our perspective if we have an open mind.

    Label a piece of paper for each of these:

    1. Strongly Agree

    2. Agree

    3. Disagree

    4. Strongly Disagree

    Read the eight statements below that address a variety of topics. After each statement is read, add that statement to the paper that best expresses how you feel about the statement.

    STATEMENTS

    1. A multicultural education curriculum should be in place in every school.(agree- it is important for all children to feel like they are represented)

    2. Families should not be expected to be involved in classroom activities.(agree- the family members are not in the classroom on a daily bases so they shouldnt be expected to be involved, however i think it is nice to include them and keep them in the loop on what their children are learning and creating while they are in our care)

    3. All learning programs should accommodate all children with special needs.(strongly agree- it is incredibly important for special needs children to have experiences that other children have as well)(

    4. Some extended family members may confuse children, so they should not have a voice in raising or educating the child. (disagree- this really depends on culture. In some cases this may be correct, however in others if extended family is treated like first family and their opinions are important then that would be normal for that specific family and their culture)

    5. My curriculum should be based on each individual child’s current interests.(disagree- i think it would be extremely hard to do this. A specific curriculum should be created and followed. It is ok to be doing something that a child might not enjoy. There will be other activities they might enjoy more)

    6. Diversity definitely includes race and culture, but doesn’t include age, ability or family make-up. (Strongly disagree- diversity is what makes us all different including age, ability and family make up)

    7. Media in general delivers fair and accurate accounts of events around the country.(disagree- there is always monitoring on the tv and i do not believe that it shows everything from around the world)

    8. The United States should discontinue relations with countries that engage in human rights violations. (disagree- you don’t get rid of a dog when it digs a hole or does something naughty, you try to teach it and give it the tools to do better)

    POINT OF VIEW

    Religion, education, political, clothing, behavior, attitude all influence me. I know many people who do not believe the way that i do when it comes to religion and political ideologies. I usually try to look past these and get to know someone for who they are. If i do not like a persons attitude or behavior it is good to give them a chance because you never know what someone is going through, however if it is behavior and attitude that affects me and makes me feel uncomfortable then i usually avoid the person altogether. I think it is possible to change your views on things. I think knowledge and experience change our perspective more than anything else.

    1. A multicultural education curriculum should be in place in every school. Strongly agree.

    2. Families should not be expected to be involved in classroom activities. I disagree, I think it is important for families to be aware of what their child is learning.

    3. All learning programs should accommodate all children with special needs. I strongly agree with this because there’s some children who don’t learn the same way or at the same pace as others in which, accommodations would be helpful for the child.

    4. Some extended family members may confuse children, so they should not have a voice in raising or educating the child. I disagree with this. I’m not sure about this one. I think they should have a voice but also I would want to make sure that they wouldn’t be confusing the child even more than they already are.

    5. My curriculum should be based on each individual child’s current interests. I agree but that is also a hard task. I would say that it is easier to give them options of what they would like to learn or activities they would be interested in doing but it might be difficult to lesson plan around each individual child.

    6. Diversity definitely includes race and culture, but doesn’t include age, ability or family make-up. I agree. Diversity mostly focuses around race and culture in my opinion.

    7. Media in general delivers fair and accurate accounts of events around the country. I agree that it can be a great source to read about events around the country. The downfall of that is, you never really know what is true and what is not.

    8. The United States should discontinue relations with countries that engage in human rights violations. I think that this is a very opinion-based question and I am not really sure.
