Ethnobotany, a specialized field of science that studies the interrelationships between humans and plants, can provide a “hook” for exploring and understanding cultural diversity and ethnic traditions. Social studies themes offer another springboard for exploring the historical relationships that different cultural communities have with plants. This resource offers a variety of ideas to help students explore these connections.
Teaching Tolerance is dedicated to reducing prejudice, improving intergroup relations and supporting equitable school experiences for our nation’s children. Our teaching materials have won two Oscars, an Emmy and more than 20 honors from the Association of Educational Publishers, including two Golden Lamp Awards, the industry’s highest honor. Scientific surveys demonstrate that our programs help students learn respect for differences and bolster teacher practice.
