Discovering America: A Cultural Guide for Immigrants

By Dr Thomas E Vesce and Dr. Thomas E Vesce

This book starts with the beginning of the United States school year that children of immigrants attend. In this way, it helps the immigrant family learn about how American society celebrates seasonal changes with sports and other activities, which not only assists in the acquisition of new and necessary English vocabulary but also in the communal acculturation of each member of the family. At the end of each month's description, the section of "Cultural Exhibits" presents prose and poetry selections, primarily from American literature, which highlight the activities of each month, from September to Summer Time, that illustrate American sentiment and provides further understanding of the fundamental rhytms of American society.
