An Indian father’s plea


I think that the story of An Indian father's plea, it show us how tuff can be for someone from a different culture to start something as simple as going to school, Wind-Wolf which is a 5 year old Indian kid was face with the reality of adjusting to a new culture system, since he was 3 years old, he already has been introduce to many different religions and had learned many need things, however he was consider an slow learner maybe it was because he was caught between two worlds. He was also exposed to first case of racism. He felt like he did not belong there, I think that as features teacher we have to identify this issues from start, and we have to appreciate other peoples cultures, so we can understand it better, he might not be a slow learner, he is intimidate by all of this, like when the students in his class laughed at him, he was very embarrass. I remember when I was 13 years old and I came to the United States for the first time, I was somewhat shy because I did not know the language and didn't know what to expect from school, therefore I can very well understand what this 5 year old child is felling.
