The teacher is organizing a family coffee hour to promote cultural understanding between families of diverse backgrounds in their preschool class. The teacher created a 5-item agenda for the coffee hour that includes: 1) introducing the purpose of promoting cultural understanding, 2) sharing their family's birthday traditions and allowing others to share important celebrations, 3) asking open-ended questions to learn about other families' traditions, 4) describing the significance of an artifact from their own cultural celebrations, and 5) asking how the families can continue learning about each other's cultures. The teacher will self-evaluate the agenda by explaining how each item addresses the scenario's goal of cultural understanding and how the agenda improves teaching and learning.
