What is culture?

9/9/2014

0 Comments

 
We all belong to a culture. 

Culture is the combination of:

·      human knowledge

·      beliefs 

·      behavior 

that we learn and pass on to future generations. 

We usually express our culture in certain ways, like

·      how we dress

·      what we eat

·      what we believe

·      even how we played as kids

For your first blog post, due by Wednesday at 11:59pm, I would like you to write 1-2 paragraphs on what culture you most closely identify with.  You may base this blog post on different cultures and groups that we have discussed in class. You may include pictures and video clips in your post if you would like, but you still must write 1-2 paragraphs. If you have any questions, please feel free to ask.

It was really great meeting all of you today! I'm looking forward to seeing you again on Monday.

Things you should remember for Monday:

  • Your "Letter to Ms. Barbour" is due at the start of class. This is your first homework grade of the marking period.
  • The last page of your Policies & Procedures should be signed and returned by both you and a parent or guardian for next Wednesday, September 10th. This is worth a quiz grade.
  • Your summer reading assessment will be on Monday. You MAY use your notes.
(Here's a link to the assignments. Your work is listed under "Grade 11 Honors.")
Have a fun, relaxing weekend! I'm looking forward to a great year with all of you.
