Description

This All About My Culture Research and Back to School Writing Activity and Craft is great for studying cultures around the world (based on the students in your classroom), and makes a perfect back to school writing activity, as well as bulletin board display for back to school night (DIGITAL & PDF VERSION). This no prep classroom community building activity includes lesson plans, writing graphic organizer, comparing cultures, vocabulary words defined and much more.

Students have the opportunity to explore a classmate's culture. It also answers the fundamental question What is Culture? Includes My Culture Worksheets (10) for students to complete both digitally, in Google Slides and a printable version.

This is a great community building activity that focuses on diversity and inclusion. It offers students an opportunity to celebrate and embrace their own unique culture. Students will write about their traditions and culture once they understand the question: What is culture? They will also have the chance to compare and contrast cultures of their classmates. By creating a culture of acceptance and inclusion, you will help students to thrive in a growingly, diverse world.
