The curriculum guides for foreign language and intercultural education programs in United States dependents schools overseas provide instructional ideas designed to promote learning about the language and culture of the host nation.

At each level, instructional units focus on aspects of the host culture, with host country language instruction objectives included in each unit. A variety of instructional activities are suggested, to be used as desired by teachers. The kindergarten guide contains units on self-identity, socialization, traffic safety rules, safety and seasonal changes, customs and traditions, community helpers, food production in the host nation, physical education, the arts, and pets and favorite animals.
