Natural Disasters

I think that natural disasters bring people together. We often become so self focused on our busy lives that we forget about those around us.With such diversity in the classroom disasters is one thing that students can all relate to. With disasters we can have students do research on a certain region that relates to them. Giving students ownership in their learning is important. Allowing students to share their culture and their experiences helps us respect and understand that we all come from different backgrounds and experiences. It just sad that it takes something like a disaster for us to appreciate one another. Disasters are devastating but it is overcome with love and compassion thhttp://www.blogger.com/img/blank.gifat we share as a humanity.
