Culture in a box
With this project, students will have a chance to look for, classify, talk about, share, write, compare and present information on their culture and that of their partner. Foreign Language, language teachers and ICT teachers can be involved.

Short description

In this eTwinning kit we propose that students produce a PowerPoint presentation or “Culture in a Box” on their partner country in groups. To be able to do this, students will gather information about their own country and send it to their partner school, which will be responsible for producing the PowerPoint presentation on their partner country’s cultural assets.

Pedagogical Value
Students will have a chance to look for, classify, talk about, share, write, compare and present information on their culture and that of their partner.

Objectives
Students will: 

  • Consider the definition of culture, and reflect on what this means to them
  • Share relevant information about their culture with their European partners
  • Create "Culture in a Box” presentations
  • Reflect on what they learned about the other country and the differences and similarities between the two cultures
  • Write reflective essays on what they have learned
