(Part I) Create your Individual TOOLBOX (15 Points) (do not take a photo, but describe everything that has to be in the toolbox and answer the questions,)
Purpose: for a Symbolic Representation-
As a creative representation of the analogy “Tools in your toolbox” that showcases the various techniques/concepts (learned during this course) that you would implement as an educator with children and families on Diversity Topics.
have a deeper understanding about how to teach in a Diverse Society with this symbolic representation of a “toolbox.”
B. Instructions: This will be done based on reflections on your own interests. Create/select an analogy that best fits your individual personality.
