Week in Review

This week our focus was on culture.

Monday, October 4: Culture Iceberg

• We discussed how culture is like an iceberg; we can only observe a small part. Some big parts of culture are hard to see.

Tuesday, October 5: Communication & Your Culture

• We did an activity simulating intercultural communication, answered a few questions related to the activity and reflected on what's important in each of our cultures

Wednesday, October 6: ABCs of Culture

• We reviewed the ABC's of Culture, and made a small poster for one of the letters.

Thursday, October 7: American Ceremony

• We read the Account of an American Ceremony and answered some questions, comparing our understanding of the event with the author's, and taking lessons from the article.

Friday, October 8: Wrap Up & Blog Expectations

• We reviewed last week's quiz, checked grades, discussed expectations for student blogs and had time to check notebook (will be graded next week!) and work on missing assignments.

Have a great weekend!
