At the beginning of the

year, I provide parents
with a pre-survey to get
to know their child and
family more. This gives
me a little bit of insight
on their child. By
learning more about the
student, it allows me to
integrate their interests
and background
knowledge into the
lessons. When choosing
books or materials, I
make sure to preview it
to reduce stereotyping or
bias in regards to a
