Master Ohio's Reading Challenge 2025 – Ace Your OAE Foundations of Reading!

Incorporating diverse texts in the curriculum is essential because they reflect various cultures and perspectives. This exposure helps students understand and appreciate the richness of different backgrounds, experiences, and worldviews. When students engage with diverse literature, they can see themselves represented in the texts as well as gain insight into the lives of others, fostering empathy and a broader understanding of society. Such an approach not only enriches students' reading experiences but also prepares them to navigate an increasingly diverse world. It promotes inclusivity and validates the identities of all students, making learning more personal and relevant.
