The Diversity Education Initiative - Cultural Safari
Our signature program, the Diversity Education Initiative which consists of the Cultural Safari resources, is designed for school districts and counties and delivered through the classroom. It facilitates learning about the Sikh-American community and augments the Social Studies curriculum at no cost to schools:
The NCSS Endorsed 17-minute Cultural Safari DVD covers Sikh culture and heritage and helps close the cultural awareness gap that exists between the educators, administrators, and peers of Sikh American students.
A Teacher's Resource Guide supplements the Cultural Safari DVD and provides classroom lesson plans for elementary and middle school students.
A Sikh Studies Unit provides content appropriate for secondary school students.
The DVD is professional, informational and contextual, in a format that is fun and relevant for all age groups. The DVD covers five main areas of Sikh culture and heritage: origins, history, physical attributes, festivals, and holidays.
The educational materials are user-friendly and offer teachers, as well as students, an introduction to their Sikh American students and peers.
The lesson plans are written to national standards and cover all aspects of reading, writing, listening, critical thinking, and comprehension skills, helping students understand the connections between the Sikh American community and their own life experiences.
The road to cultural understanding was never so much fun!
