Globalizing your classroom should be fun and easy! I am sure you are already doing to many things that will open up the world to you class.
One sure way to bring a global lens to your school is to always have students asking the following questions before every lesson:
- Why does this lesson matter to me?
- Why does this lesson matter to the world?
What does global ed look like in the classroom:
- Classroom culture (acceptance, caring, respect, empathy)
- Structured debates
- Organized discussion
- Current events
- Multicultural literature
- Project-based learning (SAGE- Student choice, authentic experiences, global significance, exhibit to a real audience)
- Incorporating more technology
- Service learning
- UN SDGs
Here is a resource that shows other ways to integrate global ideas into your daily lessons:

Global Facebook groups can also be a great resource. I will post the one I come across here.
