Multicultural Montessori

1.5 CPDs, Run Time 1:06

This session is designed to enlighten educators with an understanding of a Multiculturally enhanced environment. This presentation will allow teachers the opportunity to examine what multiculturalism looks like in the classroom and how to examine the self, others, and the environment as objectively as possible, while leaving room for tolerance, acceptance and encouragement of diversity, equity, and inclusion. The Montessori classroom is based on peace education, that fosters the appreciation of diverse perspectives, cultures, lifestyles, physical characteristics, and languages.
