Although I have not subscribed, The newsletter that I chose to focus on and look at was Edutopia.  I thought it was great in the sense that it looks like it is in class with us right now. They seem to be focusing on the things that we are focusing on in class with issues on diversity in the classroom. One of the things that I learned from reviewing this site is teaching tolerance. Tolerance is something that has to be developed at a young age and sharing best practice on how a kid can grasp the process was very helpful. The issues that caught my eye on the site was dealing with the students parents. To help the process of growth with the children the administration would like the whole family to be apart of the process. Great idea to include as many family members as possible but the issue would occur if parents rejected the help for whatever reason. It could just be something as simple as continuous schedule conflictions . A good way to assure family involvement is to schedule a monthly time where the administration and the family met together so each party had convince with time. The newsletter does offer a different perspectives on how to learn and reach children. Children are the future so its great that new ways are developed to inspire the growth of young minds.

  1. I think teaching tolerance is very important. We should teach young children to be tolerant and understanding of those from other cultures and backgrounds. The younger a child is able to learn the more tolerance they will have in their life.
