Multicultural Lesson

This lesson with include a social studies lesson along with world language lesson. This is a multiculural lesson. The children will be able to memorize and repeat how to say hello is 10 languages. They will be able to local and name each country on the map. They will also be able to identify the name of the language that is spoken in that country. The children will need to know the English form of the word hello. They will also need to know the countries that I will be going over.

I will test children to see if they know where each country is on the world map. I will ask the children if they know what languages the countries speak. This is just to see if the children have an idea of the languages they speak. When the children came into the class I will greet each child with a different form of hello. The world map will be pulled down and displayed in the front of the room with big bright stars on the countries that we are going to be going over.

We will start out by talk about all the different languages in the world. Then we will discuss the languages that we are going to learn about today. We will talk about what country each language is from. We will then start with Hello, then go onto the next language and continue. We will then local where each language is spoken. We will local it on the map.

I will name a country and the child will have to name the language they speak. Then I will go around the class and say the language I want them to say hello in. If the child is having trouble I will be able to help them and guide them right than and there. I will use an oral quiz to see if the children can tell me how to say hello in that language. I will then also give them a written quiz for the children to match up the language and the country.

Children will be able to identify each country. They will be able to explain what language they speak in that country. Then we will have a oral test and they will be able to speak hello in each language. I will have a test with test that will be just like the worksheet we went off in class. I will use the same map but it will have different numbers. They will then have to identify which country it is, what language they speak, and then they will have to speak hello to me orally.

"We must merge our traditional sense of schooling with the real 

world. What we do in school must not insult the child's past but must 

build upon his past and encourage future learning." -Sigmund Boloz
