Family Country of
Origin: India
Five ways in which I
will prepare myself to be culturally responsive towards this family:
1. Become
educated about Indian culture, values, and family traditions
2. Familiarize
myself with the family’s primary language in an effort to increase
communication
3. Encourage
open communication between myself and the family regarding my responsibilities
as an early childhood professional within a childcare center and their
expectations as customers receiving services.
4. Develop
an understanding for specific fears/concerns of the family with regards to their
immigration journey
5. Incorporate
cultural diversity into my classroom curriculum reflective of the various
cultures represented among the children within my classroom.
I anticipate that these
preparations will serve as a total benefit to myself as an early childhood professional
and the family as new members to the United States by increasing my education and
awareness regarding cultural diversity, while creating a sense of comfort and security
for the family during their transition and settlement into their new country,
