The model minority myth assumes Asians to be universally successful. However, aggregated data for AAPIs overshadows the great diversity in experiences among different ethnic groups, including migration history, socioeconomic status, and political status. As the Washington Center for Equitable Growth shows, ethnicities in the AAPI population represent both ends of the achievement spectrum with respect to educational attainment, household income, and employment rate. For example, as a group, AAPIs have the highest share of college graduates, surpassing every other racial group by wide margins. Yet this high level of educational attainment is attributed to only a select group of Asian Americans, such as Taiwanese, Asian Indians, and Malaysians. About 13 of these U.S. ethnic and racial sub-groups have lower educational attainment rates than the U.S. average, including peoples of unspecified Micronesian, Bhutanese, Hawaiian, Vietnamese, and Burmese origin. Therefore, it is important to dismantle the model minority myth to acknowledge the diversity of AAPI experiences and cultures.
Perhaps one of the most well-known poetic forms among your students is haiku. Haiku stand out with their simple, yet personal and highly sophisticated form. K-5 students can learn about the rules of haiku and develop ideas to compose their own haiku in the EDSITEment lesson plan, Can You Haiku?. 6th-8th grade students can delve into the history of haiku to learn about Japanese culture, before creating and sharing original haiku poems in the EDSITEment lesson plan, The World of Haiku. Haiku not only became popular during the Tokugawa period (1603-1868), but also ukiyo-e woodblock prints. Like haiku, ukiyo-e woodblock prints were an art rooted in everyday experience. For a lesson extension on haiku, students can compare the types of scenes evoked by haiku with the scenes portrayed in ukiyo-e woodblock prints. Ukiyo-e.org database provides digital prints from the early 1700s to present day that your students can view. EDSITEment also provides a lesson plan, Life in the Floating World: Ukiyo-e Prints and the Rise of the Merchant Class in Edo Period Japan, for you and your students to investigate the ukiyo-e prints and what they tell us about Japan during the Tokugawa period.
