Description

The 14 lessons cover the cultural realms of: Architecture, Archaeology, Dance, Festivals, Folk Art, Food, Landscape, Language, Maritime, Music, Preservation, Spirituality, Textiles, and Visual Arts. Each lesson features an authentic first-person story that reveals someone’s lived experience, heritage, culture, and identity.

Each lesson includes an Overview of the relevant culture category and a Reading & Reflections exercise that will foster your learner’s curiosity, critical thinking, and empathy.

The 14-lesson unit represents approximately 42 hours of learning, with each lesson likely to take a student three hours to do the readings and complete the comprehension/reflection exercises.

These lessons include clear expected learning outcomes that support students in understanding cultural identity through first-person perspectives, while building intercultural awareness and connections between individual experience and global traditions.

  • Students will identify and describe key cultural practices and beliefs from the lesson’s focus community (i.e., Indian culture).
  • Students will articulate insights into their own cultural identities and how those identities relate to what they learned.
  • Students will analyze how cultural expressions (like art, textiles, and handicrafts) reflect values, history, and social traditions.
  • Students will compare perspectives across cultures while finding similarities and differences through human themes.
  • Students will make connections between cultural traditions and broader global contexts (globalization, sustainability, cultural preservation), showing critical thinking about identity and intercultural understanding.

    We were FLOORED by the depth and detail of this unit! The material is so well researched and developed. I am working with a small group of middle/high school students ranging 6th-9th grade and they’ve found the content super engaging. There is so much in each lesson, this will be a unit we work through over time- which I love because we can weave it into the curriculum we already had going. Excellent option for secular homeschoolers looking for deep-dive, own-voice resources!

      Beth, thank you so much for this positive review! We make a very focused effort to offer real-life content that reflects authentic human experiences, without sugar-coating reality. We are delighted your students are finding the stories of real culture creators engaging, and that the depth & breadth of the material will serve you in good stead over time!
