This week’s blog assignment is a creative one and interesting one. The country that I Chose to pretend that my family’s origin is from is Africa. I am very interested in learning about Africa because of all of the negative information presented on the news. I feel that everything is not negative but there is a good side to every situation.
The first way that I will prepare is to learn about my family’s language. Learning to communicate in a person native language helps lessen the barriers of communication issues. The second thing I would do to prepare myself is learning about the various food my family likes. The third thing I would do is learn about cultural backgrounds the do’s and the don’ts. The fourth thing I would do is learn about my family’s religion so that I may not offend them in anyway. Finally the fifth thing I would like to know is what is important to my family. Knowing the above listed information would help me and my family form a relationship so that they may feel comfortable in a safe and secure learning environment. This information will also benefit me as an educator because it will help me to be able to implement this information in my lesson plan.
