The benefit I see out of these gestures is making the family feel welcomed in our country. It also shows that we respect their culture and beliefs. It also can help with them trusting people in a new country. I can understand how hard it could be coming to a new country not knowing much about it and wondering if you will meet people who will respect and will be friendly to you. I wouldn't want anyone to feel left out and unsure about coming to our country.

Welcoming Families From Around the World
The country I picked for this assignment is Japan. I have always been interested in their culture so this is the first step in learning their culture and beliefs. When preparing for the family to join the group I will make sure I will treat them with friendliness and kindness. I will also watch how I say things because we will have a language barrier. I will also make sure to respect their wishes as it pertains to their culture. I would also read up on their traditions to let them be aware that I know their customs and beliefs so they wouldn't feel out of place.

ReplyDeleteI love the interest you would take in learning about the country of Japan. I feel as if you would make your family and the child feel comfortable until become familiar with their new surroundings.

ReplyDeleteThat comment was from me Kevin Davis again I am having trouble commenting I apologize.
Hi Shakira,
ReplyDeleteGreat Job. I like that you've prepared yourself to be culturally sensitive to them.
The Japanese culture is big on respect so Im glad to see that that is apart of your preparation process.
Hello Shakira,
ReplyDeleteI like the country you chose. I always had an interest in learning Japanese. It is a culture I see a lot now in the United States. Great approach to learning about the family and child.
