With Carole Roman books!
I dont think ive ever sat down and discussed different cultures i kinda teach as i go let them know how others live differently.
There are many books that are diverse and cross themes with whatever we are studying in class.
I actually have several of these books already they are great for introducing children to other cultures. Other books are great for this as well.
Going to different neighborhoods with different cultures and eating there too.
We read books, look at maps and the globe and talk about the countries, their foods and their languages.
As a librarian, world languages teacher, and father of two, I love this book series. These texts are a great way to introduce younger students to geography.
We read, meeting others, talking, shows, going to the library, arts and crafts
local festivals
Trips to the Library and reading books about different cultures and countries!
They are learning just by being in school, being friends with children of other cultures and Carole Roman books. They are the best out there.

Books, of course. Also maps, food, music, videos, and dolls.
Our local children’s museum has some great exhibits designed to teach kids about other cultures.
I use lots of children’s literature to show my students different cultures.
We read books about different cultures and living in Hawaii, it’s a melting pot of cultures!
We like to do this with books
We like do it through food, books, television, museums etc. But food is the big one.
Reading books is a great way to do this.
Your books are a great resource.
