Joe Yoshimura looks across the classroom at a snapshot of his Cincinnati school. Sixty percent of the faces are white. The rest reflect the diversity now found in most American cities. About 35 percent are black, while the rest are Asian and Hispanic. Yoshimura is teaching his Walnut Hills High School students about the history and aftermath of Brown v. Board of Education. To the students, the 50-year-old U.S. Supreme Court decision seems more like a grainy newsreel, but Yoshimura knows these teens have firsthand experiences that can help them understand why discussions about race remain relevant. "I need for the kids to question stuff," he says. With a little prompting, Yoshimura draws his students' opinions to the surface. The Walnut Hills students talk about the surburban schools they compete against in sports and "how they're kind of like lily-white." They note the perception others have about them because they attend an urban high school, albeit one so rigorous that it requires students to pass an admissions test. "In one [game] in particular, a kid actually hit one of our black kids in the groin, and then he says the 'N-word,'" says Yoshimura, noting that the pair started fighting and both were sent to the bench.

Teaching about Ethnic Diversity. ERIC Digest No. 32.
Immigration and ethnic diversity are central characteristics of the American experience. The United States has accepted more immigrants, from more places around the world, than any other nation. During this century, the ethnic mixture of the United States has become increasingly varied, a trend that continues today with waves of new immigration from Asia and Latin America. Immigration and ethnic diversity have posed a paradox to American educators in the social studies: a paradox which is connoted in the national motto, E Pluribus Unum. How do educators depict accurately and fairly the rich ethnic diversity of the United States and also teach core values of a common American heritage? This digest examines (1) the meaning of education about ethnic diversity in the United States, (2) reasons for its importance, (3) the place of ethnic diversity in the curriculum, and (4) procedures for teaching about ethnic diversity in the United States. WHAT IS EDUCATION ABOUT ETHNIC DIVERSITY IN A FREE SOCIETY?

HAVE YOU EVER WONDERED WHAT HAPPENED TO THE 56 MEN WHO SIGNED THE DECLARATION OF INDEPENDENCE?
GRADES: 5-12
With the federal mandate to teach the Constitution over the next two weeks, I thought that this piece would go well, since it involved many of the same men, and the same time-period. S. Mandel Five signers were captured by the British as traitors, and tortured before they died. Twelve had their homes ransacked and burned. Two lost their sons serving in the Revolutionary Army; another had two sons captured. Nine of the 56 fought and died from wounds or hardships of the Revolutionary War. They signed and they pledged their lives, their fortunes, and their sacred honor. What kind of men were they? Twenty-four were lawyers and jurists. Eleven were merchants Nine were farmers and large plantation owners They were men of means, well educated, but they signed the Declaration of Independence knowing full well that the penalty would be death if they were captured. Carter Braxton of Virginia, a wealthy planter and trader, saw his ships swept from the seas by the British Navy. He sold his home and properties to pay his debts, and died in rags.

This would be a great icebreaker at the beginning of a new school year, and especially if you have multi ethnic children. At the first open house, or at orientation, have a large map of the world hanging for everyone to see. Ask the parents to take a pushpin and pinpoint where their ancestors or they themselves came from in the world. Then use each country as a social studies lesson, and even ask the parents or family member to come in and talk a little about that country. Include books, maps, brochures and even food native to that area. The children will have a great time sampling the different foods and seeing the countries in the maps and brochures. They will hear first hand about that country ( things not often mentioned in textbooks). and it will make the lesson more memorable. This lesson could be adapted for reading classes also.

Students’ homework is to go home and interview a family member about their own family story, finding out specific countries of origin, narratives, and symbols that represent their history.

    A Teacher's Guide to Religion in the Public Schools
    by Charles C. Haynes Each day millions of parents from diverse religious backgrounds entrust the education of their children to the teachers in our nation's public schools. For this reason, teachers need to be fully informed about the constitutional and educational principles for understanding the role of religion in public education.
    This teacher's guide is intended to move beyond the confusion and conflict that has surrounded religion in public schools since the early days of the common school movement. For most of our history, extremes have shaped much of the debate. On one end of the spectrum are those who advocate promotion of religion (usually their own) in school practices and policies. On the other end are those who view public schools as religion-free zones. Neither of these approaches is consistent with the guiding principles of the Religion Clauses of the First Amendment.
    Fortunately, however, there is another alternative that is consistent with the First Amendment and broadly supported by many educational and religious groups. The core of this alternative has been best articulated in "Religious Liberty, Public Education, and the Future of American Democracy," a statement of principles issued by 24 national organizations. Principle IV states:

I'd recommend this site for information on prejudices- it provides some interesting statistics. Interesting site to collect great dicussion questions. One might take caution with taking the multiple choice and true/false quiz, many of the choices are not chooseable due to lack of detail in the questions being asked. For instance the first question uses the word "punishment" but it's not defined as a simple reprimand, a fine, or jail time. Do Something - Young People Changing the World.

    e-mail: I. Byron Learning to live together - what to teach and how? Traditionally, formal education has not emphasised the concept of learning to live together in curriculum design and development. In recent years, however, it has become a regular part of the discourse on the aims, contents and methodologies of education. While urging for it to be come a major and integral part of any curriculum development project for schools and other educational institutions, the Delors report insists on the holistic nature of such learning which must be linked to what is taught and learned in homes, places of worship, communities, through the media, etc. The school has a central role to play in educating for learning to live together but the principles behind the concept have to inform all levels and dimensions of human organisation and activity if the ideal is to be realised in a sustainable way. Fundamental socio-economic inequalities within and among societies and discrimination of all kinds have to be systematically addressed if the term is to have its true significance. Furthermore, promotion of learning to live together should be supported by common rules and agreements in society, and both the content of these rules and the skills and attitudes needed to use and comply with them must be taught.

    As our schools and classroom continue to become increasingly diverse, the task of teaching ALL students within inclusive settings continues to challenge educators. Developing a classroom that respects the diversity of ALL students and facilitates their success is critical, especially at the middle and high school levels. This article describes one successful approach implemented in an inclusive Social Studies class. A Contextual Teaching and Learning (CTL) approach was used to infuse tolerance and diversity education along with Social Personal curriculum into an inclusive Social Studies class in grades 7 and 8. A detailed description of steps for implementing the CTL approach is provided along with a sample lesson and additional resources. Download this article (271 K, PDF)
