A classroom is a place where future leaders are bred. Therefore, teachers must create a healthy environment for the kids who spend their time learning valuable lessons in it. Although the primary purpose of an educational institution is to develop a child's academic persona, there are other important life lessons they can learn sitting in a classroom. One such lesson is that of celebrating differences.

The Impact of Classroom on Students

Those who have seen the inside of a classroom know what role it plays in their lives. Many lifelong lessons are ingrained from a young age within a person. The classroom is one of those proper channels through which this is done effectively. You do not need an expert to tell you that every individual in the classroom is unique, hailing from different backgrounds and cultures. Research suggests that one out of every three students belongs to an ethnic minority background. Therefore it is crucial to promote diversity within the four walls. Below we have outlined three practical ways to encourage diversity in a classroom.

1. Encourage Students to Share their Culture

One of the best ways to promote diversity in the classroom is to enable students to showcase their culture with classmates. Designate specific days when your students could bring a traditional dish from home or wear a dress that depicts their culture. This boosts their confidence and ignites a sense of belonging within them.

Provide Students With Materials That Reflect Multiculturalism

When students see materials around the classroom that depict different cultures, their curiosity is aroused. They begin asking questions, and it is the teacher's responsibility to enlighten them. Knowing more about various cultures and traditions allows the students to respect diversity.

Maintain A Monthly Cultural Bulletin Board In The Classroom

Bulletin boards in a classroom stimulate students' thinking when viewed. Dedicate a bulletin board entirely to highlighting various countries and their culture every month. This way, the students will start to appreciate the cultural differences in an interactive way.

Connecting Through Diversity

The world is a global village where celebrating differences is the only way nations can witness prosperity. Keeping this in mind, Cross-Cultural Storytelling Project offers a platform where individuals from all backgrounds come together to share their stories and inspire others. Join us and become a part of a multicultural phenomenon.
