The women at this school come from many different countries around the world, with the major ones being Burma, Bhutan, Somalia, Sudan, Iraq, Afghanistan, and Ethiopia. This curriculum has been created to be culturally relevant to this population. In order to adapt it to other cultures, some of the different example foods and recipes will need to be changed. Much of the curriculum was created based on observations of the women and children in the school. Observing the classroom environment allowed me to understand how the women interact with each other and the teacher, how the learn, and what their literacy level was. I was also able to make a note of the types of food the mothers packed for their children, and from that I was able to construct the lessons according to the foods typically consumed by this population. The same procedure should be done in order to adapt this curriculum to another community. Curriculum Overview
