Culturally Responsive Classroom

Service Description

Culturally responsive teaching is a student focused approach that identifies not only the differences between students but the unique strengths of each child to encourage their academic achievement and sense of belonging in the classroom. It requires that individuals be culturally competent. This competency is having an awareness of one's own cultural identity and views/bias about difference, and the ability to learn and build on the varying cultural experiences and norms of students and their families.
