A.S.L.W. - Week 3



  • Week 3: Teach and Trace
  • Teach your child about his/her own ethnic heritage.How are they supposed to learn about other people's ethnic heritage when they know nothing of their own - or that they even have one! Everybody is ethnic! We all came from somewhere; when we talk about multi-ethnic, people think that only means people of color.
  • Caucasians need to recognize their own diversities and learn about their family's heritage—whether it's German, Swedish, Greek, English, Irish, or whatever.
  • Trace where Grandma and Grandpa came from. If they are from the Netherlands, pull out the Dutch shoes (or get a pair) and learn about Dutch people. You can make some Dutch food and practice Dutch customs. If you are from the Islands of the Sea, or far away - pull out the globe and help your children find those places on the Earth.
