Multiculturalism Teaching Resources
Bring multiculturalism to life in your HASS lesson plans this school year with activities, worksheets and more — created by teachers for teachers like you.
From activities designed to help students better understand the different countries around the world and their unique traditions, languages, customs and more to fun cultural celebrations activities, this collection is stocked with a host of options to help you bring the global community into your primary classroom.
We know that exposing our students to cultural diversity activities helps them not only understand the world far beyond the school walls but also builds their empathy and appreciation for people who are different from them.
With that in mind, the teachers of the Teach Starter team have created this collection to help teachers like you explore the rich cultural differences and norms of countries around the world. Introduce students to the music, language, food and more of countries near Australia and far, far away!
