Informed Culturally Responsive Instruction Plan

Order Instructions

Select a prevalent cultural group in your school to research. Utilize your required reading, the GCU Library, and other online resources to identify specific considerations for that cultural group. Research individual cultural identity factors and how they affect learning and academic progress. Identify culturally responsive strategies to accommodate this group.

Develop a culturally responsive learning activity for this cultural group of ELLs or bilingual/dual language students with a grade and ELP level of your choice. Choose a content topic (such as the Civil War, world peace, solar system, etc.) to develop an activity that demonstrates informed culturally responsive instruction.

Create a 500-750 word informed culturally responsive instruction plan that articulates how the specific considerations for the cultural group you have chosen could be taken into account when creating a learning activity. Your informed culturally responsive instruction plan should include:

A description of the cultural group you have chosen to research including the specific considerations for that cultural group identified in the literature.

A description of the learning activity you developed including:

Grade and ELP level of your intended students

The activity objective

The materials needed and how the activity would be carried out

How the activity will be assessed

An explanation regarding how the cultural considerations of your students informed the development of your activity.

An analysis of individual cultural identity factors and how they affect learning and academic progress.

An explanation regarding how culturally responsive instruction promotes the progress and leads to the ultimate goal of reclassification for ELLs and bilingual/dual language students.

Support your findings with at least three resources.
