1. Go to your class' Preséntate grid: https://flipgrid.com/e0f527e9

2. Watch 3 of your classmates' videos. Please choose people who:
A) you don´t already know/are not friends with
and/or
B) are not in school on the same day as you during the week (obviously that does not apply if you are in school 5 days)

If you are one of the later people to respond to this question, please try to choose someone whose video people may not
have commented about yet.

3. Add an answer to this question where you list the name (first name and last initial) of the people whose videos you watched and either something you have in common with them OR something interesting you learned about them.

Example:
Person 1's Name - Something I had in common with you was...
Person 2's Name - Something interesting I learned about you was...
Person 3's Name - Something we have in common is...

Remember classroom rule #1: respect your classmates! Anything I perceive to be even mildly rude or disrespectful will result serious disciplinary consequences.

Today, we will discuss why we should care about culture and how we will be approaching culture this year in class.

Part of class today will involve filling out the attached graphic organizer, the "Iceberg cultural" or cultural iceberg. If you are joining class virtually, you will need to submit this organizer to me. Unfortunately, you can´t type directly into the document, so you will either need to print it out or draw it on a piece of paper (it does not have to be a work of art). Then, submit a picture of your completed graphic organizer here as evidence of your classwork.

If you are absent, a video will be posted later today with a recording of class. In addition to completing the graphic organizer, you need to get the notes from someone and respond to the questions (you may write in your notebook and submit a photo or type in a Google Doc):

1. What is culture?
2. What are the 3P´s of culture?
3. Why is it important to study culture?

UPDATE: Here is a recording of class from Period 7 today. You can use this to help you get the notes: https://youtu.be/VbH3j1HX0EE
