Welcome to the parent guide for this text! Read below to find out about what your child is reading in class and how you can support him/her at home.
This week in class, we’re reading "Where the World's Refugees Are" by Malaka Gharib.
In "Where The World's Refugees Are," Malaka Gharib discuss where refugees have sought safety in the world and how they have been received by their host countries.
As we read, we will be discussing the themes of America, Justice, Freedom & Equality, and War & Peace as they relate to the text. We are trying to answer these big questions :
