Students Share Their Cultures: Metro West’s Final Week of CultureALL

During the seventh and final week of the Metro West CultureALL workshop series, students had the opportunity to share their own cultures with the class. Students shared their personal traditions, the types of food they like to eat, music they enjoy listening to, and holidays they like to celebrate within their culture. 

Learning about cultures different from our own is an excellent way to build understanding, broaden perspectives, and develop a greater sense of appreciation for one another. Many thanks to CultureALL for providing the seven-week workshop series for Metro West students. This would not have been possible without Metro West Language Arts/English Teacher, Tracy D’Alessandro, applying for and receiving a Making A Difference Grant from the Urbandale Schools and Alumni Foundation. #leadership #MWpride #HerefortheKids
