In our global society, our students need to understand how **cultures are developed **and how they adapt to and adopt practices and beliefs from others through cultural diffusion. As students understand cultures vs subcultures, it will help them navigate and appreciate the diverse world we live in. In this lesson, students will look at "the American culture" vs its subcultures.

Students will enjoy working in **cooperative groups **to create a collage that illustrates various American subcultures. This activity will require them to use **higher-order thinking skills **as they analyze, compare, and evaluate American culture alongside its subcultures.

Additionally, students will complete a short preliminary assignment in which they will interpret a political cartoon. This approach caters to** visual, auditory, and kinesthetic learners** in grades 5 through 12, ensuring that even older students will find it engaging!

French School Lunch Menu Activities - 5 French and English Versions

Here are five no prep printable activities to use along with my free French school lunch menu series. You get five versatile worksheets that you can use with any of the lunch menus I've provided. Since there are so many menus available (and many more to come), having five different worksheets to use will keep your menu activities from becoming boring. All of the menus are in French only, but each worksheet has a French only and an English only version so that you can use them with any level whether you teach core French or in French immersion.

You can actually save money and precious planning time by purchasing the bundle I've put together which includes these 5 worksheets and all existing and future lunch menus. As I add new menus to the bundle you'll receive TeachShare notifications. I recommend printing the menu you want to use on one side of a sheet of paper and the set of questions you want to use on the other. Talk about a time saver and fun cultural addition to your food unit!

Versions 1 - 4 have ten questions each while version 5 has six questions. The questions on these worksheets will have your students learning a lot about cultural differences concerning menu items as well as the amount of time French students get for lunch, why there's no menu for Wednesday, etc.

Your students will find it interesting to see that French kids are offered une entrée, un plat principal, une garniture, un produit laitier, et un dessert every day.

It would be fun to look up images of some of these menu items to show students what they look like and if they eat anything similar at their schools or homes.

These activities and menus are all included in my French Food & Drink bundle.

Check out my new Build Your Own French Bundle option. Select resources from my store, and if they total $20 or more I'll quickly create a special order bundle for you at 20% off. No sale items or other already discounted bundles can be included.

Why have your geography students study Asian Highway 1? First, It is the longest highway in the Eastern Hemisphere! **It also acts as on of the main **trading infrastructure **in Asia. Studying **Asian Highway 1 **offers your students a unique opportunity to gain valuable insights into the cultural, economic, and geopolitical dynamics of the region. This major transportation route **spans over 14 countries **in Asia, connecting diverse cultures and economies along its path.

Ultimately, gaining knowledge about Asian Highway 1 equips students with a comprehensive perspective on the complexities of regional development in Asia and prepares them for careers in international affairs, economics, or transportation planning.

Students will begin the lesson with an optional video, and then move to a song analysis written about the Asian Highway. Students will work cooperatively to complete an interactive reading and dot-to-dot map activity. To wrap up the lesson students will travel the Asian Highway and write postcards from 6 different stops along the highway having learned of the the geography and culture. The class will participate in a most interesting facts group activity, followed up with exit cards. This will allow students to learn from each other.

Almost 50% claim no religion at all. *The lesson will be effective if it is chosen not to use this song lyric analysis activity.

Is reading comprehension getting boring in your Spanish class?  Turn it into a game!  This reading about Spring Festivals in Spain goes from dull to exciting as students work together and move around the room to solve a mystery!  This is a simple “print and go” with no work for the teacher!  

   Alberto’s favorite Aunt has not come back from her vacation to Spain! He and his family are worried, and they decide to go to Spain to find her. To figure out where she is, students have to read all 10 parts of the story to get the full picture of where she has been and where she could be now.   While they read the parts, they are also looking for “code words”.  Students record the code words on a special answer sheet that will eventually lead them to solving the mystery of where Tia Ana is now.  It’s so much fun! 

Festivals discussed:

-La Feria de Abril (Sevilla)

-Las Fallas (Valencia)

-Carnaval (Cádiz)

    After, you can decide which of the 4 follow-up activities you want to do with your students.  There are 4; a tell me in your own words summary, a True or False Activity to check for basic comprehension, a graphic organizer for students to organize notes about the 3 festivals discussed, and a writing follow up where students use their reading comprehension and critical thinking to invent an explanation for why Tía Ana didn’t return home.  Answer key to the True/False is also included.  Best of all?  If there’s something you’d like to change for your students, you are free to edit!

Challenging your students doesn't mean it can't be fun, creative, and group collaboration. This is a Geography Asia research or wrap-up assignment that can be used throughout the study of Asia (or modified to fit another topic) in geography, world history, and other social studies classes. I have used this in my class for 7 years and it has been a very successful learning tool. This can easily be modified the assignment to fit various topics. Students and parents love this assignment because it is fun and reflects what students have learned. Students are proud of their work when they finish. The idea of the lesson can be changed to fit studies within other core subjects, such as science. This is a supplemental activity that will enhance students learning within the unit study. The teacher-ready supplemental activities included in this lesson are focused on an Asia Unit.
