The Kaleidoscope Bag Project has been developed by the Zervas Respect for Human Differences Committee. Each classroom will have a grade-level- specific bag filled with books that can be read and discussed with family members, games, activities, music, and recipes from various cultures.
The bags are intended to strengthen connections among our school population and build an atmosphere of understanding and respect for cultural, racial, ability, and family structure diversity.
Kaleidoscope Bags offer opportunities for families to support the Newton Public Schools’ value of Respecting Human Differences. Parents are encouraged to choose from the variety of books and activities included in the bags.
The Kaleidoscope Bags are available for check out from the Zervas Library during the student’s regular Library time or a parent can come to the Library just before or just after the school day. Families can sign up to take home a bag for a week at a time.
