  • The answers in the next question provide essential clarity regarding the content of the proposed instructional materials. Please reply accurately and completely. A “yes” response does not in and of itself disqualify instructional materials. The CMAC committee is looking for well-stated rationale for using the material with the identified student group, and specific strategies a teacher will use to manage the content for the diverse maturity levels of students in the classroom.

  • Diversity and Curriculum in Northshore

  • CMAC strives to adopt curriculum materials that celebrate diversity, honor authenticity, and value equity. These materials, and accompanied teaching strategies, should represent “windows and mirrors” for students in and beyond the classroom. This tool serves to help educators think about the key concepts, themes, and character interactions within a text and how they can be age-appropriately discussed through an anti-biased lens with students. 

    The words “diverse” and “diversity” consistently appear in this form, so the “Intersectional Diversity Flower” below is included to prompt educators to think about the various forms of diversity. In the Flower, race is a consistent intersecting factor with, between, and across each petal; so, in thinking about the diverse characters and communities within a text, we ask that educators think about 1) the ways that race intersects with the identities represented on each petal and 2) the intersectionality that occurs within and across each identity petal. The Key Terms Glossary below will be helpful in completing the questions in the following section.
