Culture Blog Assignment

This week, you will be writing 2 blog posts about CULTURE.

First, you need to set up your new blog. Even if Blogger has been working for you, I still want you to set up a new account at www.edublogs.org. You can set up your Edublog account WITHOUT an email address. Please do not include your last name in your user name!

Once you have your blog set up, you will need to write 2 blog posts. Choose either option 1 OR option 2. EVERYBODY MUST DO OPTION 3!

1. What is culture?
  • This post should give an readers an introduction to culture. Think about everything we've talked about related to culture in the past week, and tell readers about your understanding of culture.
2. My Culture
  • We've talked about it already, but give readers some insight to your culture. Choose a minimum of 6 of the ABCs to discuss. Describe the aspects of your culture, which parts are most important to you and why!
3. Account of an American Activity
  • Pick some activity/event/routine that happens frequently in America, observe what happens and describe the activity like and outsider might. Think about the acticle we read about the football game.
Remember the expectations we talked about in class on Friday. Blog posts will be assessed based on
  • Content
  • Detail
  • Accuracy
  • Creativity/Writing Style
  • Correct Spelling, Grammar, Punctuation, Capitalization

Later this week, you will be reading your classmates' blogs, and people will be reading yours, so present your best work!
