7. CULTURAL EDUCATION

“Who are we?” If we don’t know the answer, we cannot participate as citizens in the life of our society, cannot use peoples’ achievements for our benefit.

“Who we are” depends on “what we become” in our understanding of and appreciation of our cultural diversity.

С. How to organize the game

The students stay in a circle. When the teacher gives the characteristic feature (e. g., those who love dogs or those who don’t love drunken people, etc.) the students try to find the members of their groups. They try to see how many of them are in each group. They form lobby groups, can organize their clubs, involve school administration, parents, local government in solving their piece of the problem. The only condition is that all the actions should be legal.
