Educators should consider how race and racism, as well as racial and ethnic identity formation, impact their lives as educational professionals, as parents, and as policymakers. In this section you will find a variety of resources for teachers. To get us started, please review the seven ways to create an equitable program environment for children, teachers, administrators, and parents.

  1. Reflect on your own beliefs.
  2. Reduce race and gender barriers to learning.
  3. Diversify your curriculum.
  4. Be dynamic with classroom and space in your environment.
  5. Accommodate learning styles and disabilities. 
  6. Be aware of religious holidays.
  7. Be mindful of how you use technology. Enjoy!
