To enrich the historical information, hands-on activities bring to life each region’s traditions, including region-specific festivals, technology, and art.

Each project is outlined with clear step-by-step instructions and diagrams, and requires minimal adult supervision.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The concept of Third Culture Kids (TCKs), children who follow their globetrotting parents around the world, is not a new one and has been widely studied. However, there is one specific group of TCKs who have, until now, been largely ignored - EdKids, the children of international school educators. In this new work, Dr Ettie Zilber brings together all the material she has collected over many years of research on this unique group and allows them to voice their own opinions, feelings and stories for the first time. Spanning a long career in education, Dr Ettie Zilber has served at international schools and other educational centers in the US, Israel, Singapore, Spain, Guatemala and China, served on the boards of ECIS and AISH, presented and published on cross-cultural themes and served as an Adjunct Professor for Lehigh University and Endicott College, teaching courses in Comparative Education and Intercultural Communication.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Generation X was born between the legions of Baby Boomers and Millennials, and was all but written off as cynical, sarcastic slackers. Yet, Gen X's impact on culture and society is undeniable. In her revealing and provocative essay collection, KIDS IN AMERICA: ESSAYS ON GEN X, Liz Prato reveals a generation deeply affected by terrorism, racial inequality, rape culture, and mental illness in an era when none of these issues were openly discussed. Examined through the lens of her high school and family, Prato reveals a small, forgotten cohort shaped as much by Sixteen Candles and Beverly Hills, 90210, as it was by the Rodney King riots and the threat of nuclear annihilation. Prato is unflinching in asking hard questions of her peers about what behavior was then acceptable or overlooked, and how we reconcile those sins today. KIDS IN AMERICA illuminates a generation that is often cited, but rarely examined beyond the gloss of nostalgia.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This lively interdisciplinary book on 'complex households' in six U.S. ethnic groups uniquely combines rich ethnographic description conveying the 'sights and smells' of fieldwork with theory-linked overviews and Census 2000 data. It explores interactions of household structure, ethnicity and gender, also illuminating factors affecting formation and dissolution of complex households, which are increasingly important as family and ethnic diversity - and immigration - grow. It's valuable for student and professional sociologists, anthropologists, demographers, research methodologists, policymakers and interested public.

They built the first permanent American settlement in St. Augustine, Florida, in 1565. The long and colorful history of Latinos in America comes alive through learning about the missions and early settlements in Florida, New Mexico, Arizona, and California; exploring the Santa Fe Trail; discovering how the Mexican-American War resulted in the Southwest becoming part of the United States; and seeing how recent immigrants from Central and South America bring their heritage to cities like New York and Chicago. Latinos have transformed American culture and kids will be inspired by Latino authors, artists, athletes, activists, and others who have made significant contributions to American history.
