Abstract:
Multicultural education is important for students beginning in the earliest years of
schooling. It must be introduced early and reinforced frequently. The teachers of these
students need the appropriate knowledge, skills, and resources to implement
multicultural education in their classroom. Teachers often neglect to implement
multicultural education believing it is too much work or because they are afraid of
making a mistake. I created a resource is to be used by elementary school teachers to
assist in implementing multicultural education in their classroom. I compiled children’s
books, songs, and artwork created by Black and Latinx persons. These creative works
reflect the thoughts, ideas, and lives of those who created them. I created a website to be
used as a supplement to multicultural education in an elementary classroom. The
website created can be found at https://mesmikaela.wixsite.com/culturalchronicle.
