Part 1: Culturally Responsive Resource Information

Using the "Culturally Responsive Literacy Resources Template," identify three culturally responsive resources to promote literacy from three different cultural perspectives or cultural values.

Identify a variety of resources, with one being a digital/technological resource. Resources may include, but are not limited to, picture books; poems (radio, video, written); poetry slam; music/songs; music videos; apps; games; blogs; vlogs; tweets; memes; speeches (radio, video, written); interviews (radio, video, written); magazines (hard copy); digital magazines; articles; videos; etc.

For each identified resource, include the title, resource type, description, and citation. Relate an accurate language acquisition theory to inform how you can use each culturally responsive resource to support literacy and content learning. Creativity is encouraged!

Part 2: Cultural Values and Perspectives

Continuing to use the "Culturally Responsive Literacy Resources Template," explore each culturally responsive resource and distinguish the cultural values and/or perspectives that are present in each resource.

Each culturally responsive resource should be indicative of three different cultural perspectives or cultural values.

Provide examples/evidence from the resource to clearly support your response and include appropriate citations.
