    TEAM-Mexico’s Guided Discovery Orientation Program An Introduction to TEAM-Mexico’s Guided Discovery Program “After three weeks of residing in the republic of Mexico, Mr. Winthrop was not only convinced that he knew the country perfectly, but also that he had seen everything- that he had penetrated the character and the customs of its people and had explored it thoroughly.” Translated from Canasta de Cuentas Mexicanos by B. Traven Cultural Orientation: FAIL! Unlike this clueless tourist, we hope that you will start the journey of understanding and enjoying Mexico and her culture. It will take a lifetime! That’s why we called our program Peregrinando which means, “ taking a journey, a pilgrimage.” This program is part of a two year orientation for new workers . On the next page, you will see a timeline. It includes formal language study, journaling and a coaching program. We hope that you will develop skills of observation and sympathetic questioning that will serve you throughout your career. Please journal your observations and discuss your experience with your coach each week. Both of you can keep a checklist to record your progress. The activities can be done in any order. Some of the activities will be easy to do, others may require a translator for you to complete. If you would like to substitute another activity or reading for one we have chosen, please talk with your coach first.

  • Cinco De Mayo
    Cinco De Mayo Mexico’s most famous military victory took place on the morning of May 5th, 1862. On that day, about 4,000 Mexican soldiers fought off and drove back the much larger French army at the village of Puebla, Mexico. The French, along with Spanish and English troops, landed in Mexico to help collect debts from President Benito Juarez. The English and Spanish made deals and left, but the French stayed because they had designs on the Mexican empire. They marched from the port of Vera Cruz,, intending to attack Mexico City to the west. The Calvary, led by Colonel Diaz, who would later become Mexico’s president and dictator, went out to meet the French, who were unable to overcome them. The French militia tried to overcome the Mexican militia who were on foot, but a serendipitous thunderstorm frightened hundreds of cattle in the area, who started to stampede, helping to drive the French away. Cinco de Mayo is an annual holiday celebrating that victory, as well as Mexican freedom and liberty. Cinco de Mayo is celebrated throughout Mexico, as well as in parts of the United States. States with large populations of people with a Mexican heritage, like Texas and Southern California, frequently celebrate Cinco de Mayo. Fun Facts: • Cinco de Mayo means 5th of May in Spanish. It is the anniversary of a battle that took place between the Mexicans and the French in 1862. • Mexico had many rich natural resources and gold, which made them vulnerable to other nations that wanted to take advantage of these riches.

  • Holidays and Observances, 2020
    Holidays and Observances, 2020 For Use By New Jersey Libraries Made by Allison Massey and Jeff Cupo Table of Contents A Note on the Compilation…………………………………………………………………….2 Calendar, Chronological……………….…………………………………………………..…..6 Calendar, By Group…………………………………………………………………………...17 Ancestries……………………………………………………....……………………..17 Religion……………………………………………………………………………….19 Socio-economic……………………………………………………………………….21 Library……………………………………...…………………………………….…...22 Sources………………………………………………………………………………....……..24 1 A Note on the Compilation This listing of holidays and observances is intended to represent New Jersey’s diverse population, yet not have so much information that it’s unwieldy. It needed to be inclusive, yet practical. As such, determinations needed to be made on whose holidays and observances were put on the calendar, and whose were not. With regards to people’s ancestry, groups that made up 0.85% of the New Jersey population (approximately 75,000 people) and higher, according to Census data, were chosen. Ultimately, the cut-off needed to be made somewhere, and while a round 1.0% seemed a good fit at first, there were too many ancestries with slightly less than that. 0.85% was significantly higher than any of the next population percentages, and so it made a satisfactory threshold. There are 20 ancestries with populations above 75,000, and in total they make up 58.6% of the New Jersey population. In terms of New Jersey’s religious landscape, the population is 67% Christian, 18% Unaffiliated (“Nones”), and 12% Jewish, Muslim, Buddhist, and Hindu. These six religious affiliations, which add up to 97% of the NJ population, were chosen for the calendar. 2% of the state is made up of other religions and faiths, but good data on those is lacking.
