[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Hi, I am the op. I am frustrated because his teacher won't give me any details. I expressed my concerns and she told me she doesn't write the lesson plans and can't do anything except email my concerns. She could have helped me understand more about what they were learning. Are they learning about Islam for example? Her answer was so robotic as if she doesn't know what they are learning and doesn't care. [/quote]

Yes, she doesn’t know. That is correct. I am from South Asia, but I realize we are in a Western country, which historically has identified more with Europe than with Asia or Africa. Schools are trying to do a little better now, but it is what it is. And for the average American, it probably makes sense given the world context and how much sheer material there is to get through.

Volunteer to go in and share about Bangladesh. I’m sorry, OP, Bangladesh as a topic is going to be a lesson in a unit on Pakistan, maybe not even India if you’re not getting too detailed.

You can look up the learning indicators online to see the key concepts they will learn.

Why won’t you say what school system this is, even though multiple people have asked? You would get much better responses. [/quote]
