This is my list on different teaching tools that I will use in my future classroom.
Diversity is important in the classroom because it helps all of the children to feel validated or equal about who they are and where they come from. Without diversity children who are different won't feel accepted in the classroom and will feel too anxious to be able to complete wany of their work, or even come to you for help.
This is a website where immigrants shared their experiences. Immigration is important in the classroom because this is a growing country with a fast rising immigration community. This website is all about exploring the different perspectives of immigrants and helps students develop a deeper understanding of the meaning of citizenship.
Teaching Tolerance provides free resources to educators—teachers, administrators, counselors and other practitioners—who work with children from kindergarten through high school. Educators use our materials to supplement the curriculum, to inform their practices, and to create civil and inclusive school communities where children are respected, valued and welcome participants.

This is a teacher help book to help them understand how differentiated learning is benefitical and how to respond to the different needs. It also touches on how the differentiated instruction is the same it has just come into higher demand.
keeping an open line of communication is the best way to stay engaged with the students. When the parents know what is going on then the students have a support system that is kept in the loop at all times, someone who is able to actually help the child. It also allows the community to come together and bring everyone's different skills together.
Happy in Our Skin is a book that teaches children that everyone should be happy to be themselves no matter what color their skin is. It allows children to feel comfortable in the way they look.
this is a book about pen pals Elliott and Kailash. They discover that even though they live in different countries, they both love to climb trees, own pets, and ride school buses. It teachers children that even though others may seem so different because they live far away, look different, or don't talk like them, they aren't that different from one another.
