Welcome to Inclusivity Matters!
At Inclusivity Matters: A Representative Literacy Curriculum, we understand that representation matters! My goal is to provide you with a comprehensive, culturally sensitive, and quality curriculum that will promote diverse literature for children ages 4-8. Children are incredibly impressionable, so it is vital that they take in media that show themselves represented, and media that help them learn about people of different cultures and backgrounds.
“In diversity there is beauty and there is strength.”
-Maya Angelou
