Italian Heritage Curriculum: Promoting Italian Culture in New Jersey

This week on The Italian Radio Hour - How much of the creation of America comes from the Romans? The connections are simply fascinating.And thanks to the the New Jersey Italian Heritage Committee, students can now experience a stimulating curriculum that is both universal and also preserves the worldwide cultural legacy of Italy. By integrating exciting and rich resources, schools now have a solid and well developed curriculum K-12 with lessons plans that infuse both Italian and Italian American material that meet all DOE Core Curriculum Content Standards, and are equally rewarding and stimulating for teachers, students, and the entire community. To tell us more about the Italian Heritage Curriculum, I am joined by Cav. Gilda Rorro Baldassarri, Ed.D Chair, Curriculum Development Committee, and Margaret Fontana, Executive Director of the NJ Italian Heritage Commission.
