Culturally specific items in their classroom environment.

Discuss with your mentor teacher culturally specific items in their classroom environment. You may consult other teachers at your field experience site to gather additional information or work with multiple teachers if needed. Include the following in your discussion:
• How do you support and celebrate cultural diversity within instruction?
• How do you leverage home language and cultural assets?
• How do you show responsiveness to the different strengths, needs, and identities of all ELLs, including special needs?
• How do you demonstrate understanding of the social, emotional, and cultural needs of students when establishing classroom routines and procedures?
