3321 m&w

Ch. 2. Educators need to be considerate of cultural diversity. There are so many different nationalities and religions. Cultural mismatch in the culture of the school is unfortunate. So if the students culture matches the school then they're more likely to succeed and if a students culture doesn't match the culture of the school then they feel uncomfortable and can be labeled as having a learning disability. I believe we need to face the challanges of culturally responsive schooling rather than have students fall through the cracks or drop out. We need to encourage cultural diverse students and let them know that their language and culture are good and important. I like what the book says about one of the best ways for us all to learn about each other is through books that challange us to become different and more experienced in our knowledge and our views.
