Culture, race, religion, experience, and beliefs are all factors that build a person’s identity. With student populations becoming more and more diverse every day how do we recognize and support the vast array of identities present in our school communities? Dive into this episode for more on this topic! The Creativity Department speaks with Sandra Munoz and Esmerelda Fernandez, bilingual art educators from Plano, Texas. Hear their experiences with ELs, the communities they come from, and how the art room can help acknowledge and honor the diversity of all cultures and help students find their personal identities.
