My students are from diverse cultural backgrounds, and celebrating their cultures with a variety of multicultural materials will only enhance the learning experience. I have requested musical instruments, such as a Mexican Guiro and a Chinese Gong, so that the students can hear distinct musical sounds that are inherently part of specific cultures. The dolls represent more than one culture, and the dolls will be used for role play and as story props. The radio will be used to play vibrant and colorful music representing many cultures around the world. The multicultural books would bring many cultures to life with the author's words and illustrator's pictures, which will be an integral piece of our classroom library. A new school year with classroom materials that will enhance the learning experience is a must. I have requested bulletin board paper and borders, so that my students walk into a classroom that is inviting and welcoming because young children are intrigued by colors and shapes. I want the best for my students, and these materials will help start the new school year on the right path.
