Accommodation• Multiculturalism and cultural diversity vs.
race, and ethnicity.• Knowledge of elements that affect the
cultural diversity/ multiculturalism• Do not overlook students due to their SES• Group homogeneously• ESOL students can have someone
interpret• Share about different cultures
Cont• For the student with visual impairment, I’d move him close to the front so that
he can be closer to the screen. I’d also make sure that materials I give to her is in large print, so that she can read easily.
• For the students with LD and MLD, I’d let the special education teacher know what we are discussing in advance and that way when we are all working as a class, they would have had a mini lesson and will participate and not feel left out.
• For the student with EBD, I’d have him sit where I can easily reach him. This will help me get to him easily when he starts getting off task. I’d also have a desk near my desk where he can sit when he wants to work alone. This will ensure that he does his work and does not disturb others.
• For the ESOL students, I’d ensure that they are sitting near students that can help them when they have a question regarding to what I say. On the other hand, if I have any ESOL student that is fluent in both languages, I’d have them work together to ease the transition for these students.
• SES. I’d ensure all students have all materials needed to complete their work thus no excuse of incomplete work because of lack of necessary materials.
