Welcome to my blog on education. I am an aspiring teacher still in the process of learning a lot. Here is a collection of some of my thoughts as well as information I have found and used for some of my classes.

Racial diversity in the classroom

While teaching you have to remember that not all children are the same or come from the same backgrounds. In Minnesota the five largest minority groups that you would come across are:


African American











Hmong

















Somali





















Hispanic

















Native American



















Here are some organizations out there trying to help with education in diverse settings.

Educational Diversity Project

Center for Research on Education, Diversity, and Excellence
