Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The alignment between the teacher's cultural identities and those of the characters is not a central consideration when selecting multicultural children's literature. The focus should be on the authenticity of the text and illustrations, the relevance to the children's identities and experiences, and the diversity and inclusivity of the content, rather than matching the teacher's cultural identity.
