Abstract

This report presents information to help teachers work with diverse students. The report includes: information regarding the countries and cultures of Haiti, Eritrea, and Ethiopia (for helping to establish rapport with diverse learners); characteristics of Haitians, Eritreans, and Ethiopians as contrasted with American students' characteristics and expectations; culturally responsive teaching techniques for Haitian, Eritrean, and Ethiopian students; evaluation and assessment-related strategies for Haitian, Eritrean, and Ethiopian children; resources for each of the three groups in America (human, community, and material resources, Internet resources, and annotated bibliographic resources); and research-based findings that clarify how to work effectively with children from Haiti, Eritrea, and Ethiopia.
