Making Your Way is for resettlement agency trainers who provide Cultural Orientation domestically. Each of the eleven content chapters starts with a short lesson called The Basics that addresses particularly pressing information for that topic. The chapters contain two to six additional lesson plans, along with supplemental images, posters, and handouts. While the complete curriculum is 761 pages, we offer The Complete Basics, individual chapters, and supplemental materials as separate downloads.
This unit focuses on the following key points:
- Learning English is important for a refugee’s successful adjustment in the United States.
- Refugees who are able to work must find a job as soon as possible after they arrive in the United States.
- Studying English in a classroom with an experienced teacher is a good way to learn English, but there are many other ways that refugees can learn English.
