The following is a write up the Global Awareness team for Au Pair in America did about a Global Awareness presentation one of our Maine Au Pair’s gave to my daughter’s 4th grade class! When I spoke to Joanna afterward she said the kid’s were most interested in the Polish language and how it has additional letters that the English language doesn’t have and they loved seeing the paper currency she brought! Thank you so much to Joanna for presenting!<\/p>\n

Joanna G. from Poland is spending her year in Biddeford, Maine. \u00a0Community Counselor Jennifer Molloy\u2019s daughter\u2019s 4th grade class was doing an immigration project with gave Joanna a great opportunity to share about her home country. This is what she had to say:<\/p>\n

“My first Global Awareness experience was great! My local counselor\u2019s daughter\u2019s class is doing an immigration project and they were looking for somebody who is staying in the US for the short term. I really like this kind of project, so I agreed to come to school and talk about my country.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

The presentation took place in C.K. Burns School in Saco, Maine on 19th June 2017. There were 45 kids from 4th grade. I was introduced by their teacher as an Au Pair from Poland, who is staying in US for one year, is not a student or immigrant. I started with general information about Poland. I drew a map with the shape of Poland, the Baltic Sea, Sudety, and Karpaty Mountains, the Vistula River and capital city \u2013 Warsaw. I showed them pictures of the Palace of Culture and Science in Warsaw and Tatra Mountains with the highest summit in Poland \u2013 Rysy. Then I spoke about the differences and similarities between US and Poland. They saw pictures of paper money and a few traditional dishes. I told them about being Au Pair and how to become one. I also taught them some Polish words \u2013 days of the week and counting to 10. They were really interested in Poland and asked lots of questions!<\/p>\n

It was an amazing, but short time. I learned that kids want to know a lot about other countries and the best way to get them into topic is teach them some words! At the end I handed out the Global Awareness \u201cMy travel journal\u201d books and poster.”<\/p>\n
