Multicultural Printables that bring #DiverseBooks to Life | Wise Owl Factory

September 23, 2017 by Valarie Budayr

Carolyn from the Wise Owl Factory has not only been a strong supporter of MCBD since Day One,  we think she gets extra “cool points” for being a Minnesotan  like our Project Manager, Becky!

She is also a CoHost for MCBD2018!

Carolyn is also a source for amazing, fun and relatable printables that inspire young minds and support teachers in the classroom. Her site is also a treasure trove of useful and exciting Multicultural Printables that help to bring diverse kidlit books to life.

Wise Owl Factory Multicultural Printables that bring #DiverseBooks to Life

 

This post has a free printable with pages that accompany the book I Am New Here by Anne Sibley O’Brien. They could be used without the book but having the book on hand would be nicer, of course. The book is about three English as a Second Language (ESL) children adjusting to new classrooms. At first they do not fit in, but as their skills and talents emerge they begin to belong. One child is a soccer player, one is a writer, and one is an artist. By sharing their abilities, they begin to earn respect of other children who figure out how to be a good friend to the newcomers.  READ MORE HERE.

Aloha for Carol Ann was the book that was sent to Carolyn for Multicultural Children’s Book Day 2015: Read Your World. This post has a book review for the book written by Margo Sorenson, and illustrated by Priscilla Garcia Burris. There is a free printable for the book, also.
