Module 2 - Activity

This document contains the reflections of Neliza Salcedo on a multicultural identity activity. It includes circles to write identifiers important to one's identity, such as "Filipino", "Future Educator", and "Women". It also contains two hypothetical scenarios for responding to students - to a request to remove a crucifix, and to a student unable to fully participate in a game due to a prosthetic leg. Salcedo's proposed responses emphasize respecting different beliefs while maintaining classroom standards, and finding alternative ways for all students to participate rather than be isolated. The document concludes with an activity to complete a Venn diagram comparing oneself to a classmate.

 Write in each of the satellite circles an identifier or descriptor that you feel is
important in defining you. This can include anything Asian American, Female,
Mother, athlete, educator, Taoist, scientist or ant descriptor with which you
identify.

Activity 2
Practice 
A. Read each paragraph and explain what you would do and why.
1. A parent asks to see you. He demands that you take out the crucifix inside your
classroom because the religion they belong to does not believe in the crucifix. He
insists that his child is being taught the wrong values. How will you respond to
the parent?
2. You plan a relay game for your class. While you are explaining the mechanics of
the game, one student raises her hand and says she can’t do a particular task in
the game because she has a prosthetic leg. How will you respond to this
situation?
Answers:
1. We truly understand the parent and we respect that and to their religion. As a teacher
of course, I will say that I will take it out of his child's side but leave the other student's
side. Whatever religion it is, I respect and honor it however the children in the
classroom are being taught to learn about their religion and other subjects therefore I
cannot take it out of the classroom but leave it at one side. And if his child insists that
the crucifix is to be brought back to its rightful place, I will. It is saying here that the child
does not want to change religion but wants to learn about it. So, I will also say that it is
not the child that it is controlling but the knowledge that the child wants and if the child
still wants it at his/her side, I will let it be.
2. Depending on the mechanics of the game, there are different types of relays. I prefer to
find alternative ways for the child to partially participate, rather than simply excusing
them. Excusing them isolates them from their peers, and reinforces the idea that they
are incapable. Many people face physical challenges and still accomplish truly
impressive things. I would hope to instill in the child both an idea that they belong with
their peers, capable of working with others and having fun, and that in the face of
challenges they should always be prepared to do what they can and try their best,
instead of giving up before they have even begun. As a teacher we need to think of a
way so that each of our students can participate in the activities in school whatever
their situation is. Disability is not an obstacle for the things she wants to do. And as
teachers we are the ones who must believe in our students beyond their ability .
