Wander the World: Celebrating diversity

Celebrating diversity

Wander2_2 A Pride of African Tales by Donna L. Washington takes you on a journey to the continent of Africa. Each tale reflects a different culture and lesson to be learned. It is not just the stories in the book that will catch your attention. Award-winning artist James Ransome’s watercolor paintings show the diversity of the African people through clothing, architecture, landscape and wildlife. What is diversity? Look up the word “diversity” in the dictionary. There is a lot of diversity in Hillsborough County. Look in the St. Petersburg Times for photos, cartoons, pictures or words that show diversity. Do your neighborhood and school have a lot of diversity? How does this diversity make life and learning more interesting? Just click on the comment button below to discuss these ideas!
