  Case: Cultural Diversity
Juan is from EL Salvador and is new to his 8th grade middle school. He brings in several books from his from his 8th grade class t hat are from EL Salvador. The books have gender defamation statements towards women. In his culture women are submissive and secondary to males. How do you explain to Juan that the culture is different in the United States without restricting his beliefs?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
I can't necessarily condemn his books, I can lead the class in a discussion on women's roles and men's roles. I think it is essential to demonstrate the strength and character of both genders and to promote an atmosphere where mutual respect and honor is paramount.
