The Robious Community Problem Solvers created Project T.A.D. (Teaching about Diversity) and have designed two CREW lessons on this topic to implement with the sixth grade ACES team in conjunction with Mix-It-Up Week at Robious Middle School in mid-November. 

The first day, Monday, Nov. 17, used the picture book “If the World Were a Village: A Book about the World’s People” by David Smith. 

The second day, Tuesday, Nov. 18, was a lesson using Diversity Jelly Beans, which focused on recognizing the differences and unique qualities of others.
