Teaching Strategies

One strategy that we decided would be important in a culturally diverse classroom including Asian American students would be to understand what their home is like to better understand their behaviors.  By having the students do activities like interviews about their families, teachers will be able to get a glimpse into their student's homes and reasons behind their behaviors.

The second strategy we decided on is that teachers need to show that they value their student's opinions.  This is crucial in a classroom that includes Asian American students because they are often timid and do not want to share what they have to say.  Therefore, showing that you value all opinions will encourage them to be share more in the classroom.
