It's Great to Celebrate Diversity!

Help me give my students a classroom full of learning and diversity tools.

FULLY FUNDED! Ms. Stewart's classroom raised $426

My Project

The students in my classroom come from many different types of families and backgrounds. The students share some similarities and differences in their families and experiences.

I would like to create a classroom that celebrates my students' similarities and differences.

I want them to see themselves and their families in each learning area in my classroom. Having multicultural puzzles, books and learning materials will help my students learn and explore others' differences in their classroom and around the world. These materials will also give the students a chance to share their daily experiences with others.
