Diversity Matrix

Create a matrix of 10 possible family structures, traditions, cultures, languages, and/or religious practices that you may encounter in a classroom. Address the following within your matrix for each area identified:

• Briefly describe the family structure/tradition/culture/language/religion.
• Discuss one engagement strategy you would use to encourage parents/families with that background to participate in the classroom.
• Discuss classroom environment considerations you will keep in mind. This should include both routines and visuals around the classroom.  

In addition, beneath the matrix, describe a classroom activity you could create to respect and honor diversity within your classroom in 100-250 words.
