Let’s try an add-on pass-around: Ways to honor MLK all year round.

When planning your literature curriculum, include authors and characters from diverse backgrounds — instead of waiting for special events or history months, use the whole year to represent people of various races and ethnicities, cultures, belief systems, genders and sexual orientations, etc.

Your turn. Go!

I like this idea! I think it’s also great to remember that in a music classroom we really do have a unique opportunity to explore and experience other diverse viewpoints through music.

I hope someday when I’m planning my future curriculum I remember this and try to hit a variety of different genres.
