There are so many resources throughout our website, but you can have the most important ones easily available when you are a member with us. Instead of wasting time looking for resources, trying to find high quality materials, unsure if you're the only one wanting social change, join us. We're here and we're doing the work. 

 

Below you'll see a snippet of the community guidelines we follow in My Classroom. Under that, you'll see who the directors are. 

At Multicultural Classroom, we have four values that lead our work and we want you to practice them alongside us. 

  1. Try on transparency

This means we will practice being honest and speaking for ourselves. While we might be members of groups (for ex: immigrants, women, Black people...) we are also individuals.

  1. Value vulnerability

We want people to feel their feelings and express them as needed. Emotions will not be weaponized and they can be expressed.

  1. Breathe before you TYPE

You might read something that enrages you or something that bothers you. This is part of the reality of being in community. We ask that you breathe before you type a thought, response, or comment. We value your vulnerability and also want you to sustain respect and humane conditions.

  1. Lead with curiosity

When someone posts something that is frustrating (because it will happen), we want you to start your responses by asking a question. Invite them to offer an explanation and give them a chance to explain themselves or take something back. We make mistakes. Opportunities for restoration and reconciliation will be offered.

 

You are invited to use these values as guidelines for how we will participate in this community space together. We want people, including you, to feel welcomed, supported, and respected.

Be a part of this!

Your 2 directors:

Lorena

I am Co-Founder of Multicultural Classroom and Academic Director. I’m the author of Textured Teaching, The Antiracist Teacher: Reading Instruction Workbook, and much more. But here? I’m an educator looking for community, just like you. What makes me happy is tasty food, beach days, and reading a good book. Like, a good good book. 

Holly

I am the Implementation Specialist at Multicultural Classroom and one of my roles is to sustain our online communities. I'm a classroom teacher in NY and have held national roles in the field of English. I'm also an educator, like you, looking for community. In times like these knowing who your people are is critical. I like camping, trail running, hiking, and singing off key. 

In My Classroom you realize you're not alone. You see that the work is challenging, but in community it can be achieved. You feel that you can be bold and tell the truth. You know that this work is important. 

Join us today and don't waste any more of your time. Instead, use it to build and create in meaningful ways.
