Assignment Week 7: Welcoming Families From Around the World
Student
Name: Angie Woods
In my
lovely discovery of my scenario of this week, the family is a Japanese family,
which is located near Japan which is an island that is part of a nation in East
Asia. Located in the Pacific Ocean, it lies to the east of the Sea of Japan,
China, North Korea, South Korea and Russia, stretching from the Sea of Okhotsk
in the north to the East China Sea and Taiwan in the south.
The
five ways that I will prepare myself to be culturally responsive towards this
family:
1. I
would research the different languages that are spoken in the Japanese family and
then I will try to learn a few words or phrases just as well as the meaning of
their writing because it’s so different from American writing. Plus I would try
to find a translator who can speak every type of the different languages in
their cultural may speak so that the translator can be able to help me
communicate with the Japanese family.
2. Next I
would also learn about the economic conditions of the country and the area of
the country that my family is from with the problem that they may be facing. I would try to find out what type of work the
family may have been involved in before they left just as well as knowing what
good work ethics they can do. I know that I would have to provide the family
with support in their change to the job or job’s in America. I know that I will explain to the family how
different the life style is in America from how it is in their country.
3. I also would do some research on the education
systems in both areas so that I can compare their education to how it is in the
new location with a listing of best to the lease. So that the family can have
the right to determine rather or not the family has any type of knowledge. Then
with any type of early childhood education program have the family ever had involvements
of being a immigrating to America for help for children/families as well. By meeting
with the family discussing their understanding with educational experiences with
many great expectations in how I would give my very best support with my great
ideals and good benefit goals for their children/child and family.
4. I
would gather the entire family together to sit down and discuss with the family
relationships with how their family relationships can work. I would bring up to discussion with the
family intergenerational relationships just as well as the understanding of the
role of the children/child in their culture. I would also make sure that I
would give them the understanding that everyone do things way different from
how they may be use too because people have different beliefs about things some
may be the same.
5. I think
I would reflect on any of the biases that I would strongly hinder my relationship
with the family just as well as work on many ways to overcome the different
biases in helping the Japanese family.
I
think by me trying to strength my understanding of many different families
culture by trying to find many different ways to communicate with them. The
main thing I would mainly do is learn about the families goals, values, beliefs,
and plans on what great ideals the family are looking forward of doing. I truly believe that I could accommodate the
family which I would also tell the family that I could be I great help for
their family in supporting the best for their family. I think that it would be a two way of the
both of us learning about each other cultural. Plus I would say how it is very intriguing
for me to learn so much about them that most ways. How their different beliefs
about things may also be a great impact to me and how knowledge would be a
great impact to them about the two countries.
